Michigan Football: 3 overreactions from the Georgia blowout
By Nick Popio
3. Michigan football wasn’t the Big Ten’s best representative in the playoff
This is also an overreaction that was decided in late November at the Big House in a game that will be remembered forever by the maize and blue faithful.
Officially Michigan football won that right in Indianapolis, but they wouldn’t have made it there if they didn’t overcome the one roadblock that has been nagging at them for 10 years now.
Michigan State also had their chances to win the conference but fell short in West Lafayette and Columbus. Ohio State played soft on the stage that mattered the most and had to settle for the consolation prize of the Rose Bowl and Iowa was overwhelmingly overmatched when the spotlight was on them in the last duel of the Big Ten schedule.
SEC …and still the best conference in college football. It isn’t just Michigan it’s representative of the Big Ten as a whole.

The SEC is head and shoulders above the rest of the college football world when it comes to Alabama and Georgia.

I don’t want to make excuses, but not many, if any teams can compete with them this year. As bad as it is for the sport until someone dethrones the SEC, they will continue to run things for as long as they deem to.
