I’m not making any predictions but it appears that the Michigan game , even though we lost , may have saved not only 2 teams their seasons but 2 coaches their jobs .

The new transfer system has turned college football upside down and the prime example of this is the Illini . On the O side of the ball a qb , a pair of wrs who hopefully might actually be able to catch a football , and a plug in o lineman . On the D side a pair of lbs who if nothing else ads...
