....3 bad b1g "also-ran" opponents who are a combined 3-6 in conference play to date?

scUM held these same tackling dummy OOC opponents to an average of 5.33 PPG, but the 3 bad Conf opponents played to-date have averaged 17 PPG.

scUM's average MOV versus the tackling dummy OOC opponents was 50 PPG, but scUM's average MOV against the 3 bad b1g opponents they've played to-date is only 13.7 PPG. Things that make you go hhhhhhhmmmmmm???

They weren't your run of the mill OOC opponents. They were some of the absolute worst in all of football.

And to be fair, I think Maryland is a bowl team this year and Iowa may get there as well despite perhaps the worst offense in all of college football. Maryland could have beat Michigan ultimately losing by 1 score in a game where the referines created 2 turnovers that weren't real turnovers for Michigan.

There are really only 2 teams on Michigan's schedule this year unless Illinois continues to improve which is a trap game before Ohio St that was intended to be a cupcake by schedule makers.

They definitely haven't looked unbeatable since they began b1g play.

OP coming strong with the startling information that teams (Michigan and Penn State included) tend to win by more vs bad teams than they do vs good teams.
