2. Michigan falls again

It’s widely believed that the winner of Ohio State and Michigan will get in the College Football Playoff. That’s also under the assumption that they win their conference championship game as well, which isn’t a given with Wisconsin playing great football.

A tough loss like the one Michigan suffered last week could be costly. John O’Korn is now the starter at quarterback for the Wolverines and that’s a lot to put on the shoulders of the backup quarterback.

The team is confident in him to do his job, but it’s a lot to ask for a team that’s in the middle of the playoff hunt. They play Indiana this week and it should be a game that they roll to a big win as they continue their push.

However, it could take some time for the team to find a little chemistry with their new signal caller and a second loss before the Ohio State Buckeyes would seal their chances and cause chaos all over the place for the playoff committee.
