I definitely don't think Michigan deserves much credit for this season. They've been pretty mediocre through most of it. But, why would Texas jump Michigan in the polls?
Take rankings for whatever you think they are worth, but Jexas has won games against top 25 opponents 3 of the last 4 weeks, with a giant national TV win over a top 10.
Texas has 3 wins better than anyone Michigan has beat . That said Texas lost to a team Michigan beat by 21 so....I definitely don't think Michigan deserves much credit for this season. They've been pretty mediocre through most of it. But, why would Texas jump Michigan in the polls?
So we should ignore 3 decent wins over 1 lost at the beginning of the seasonBut they both have a common opponent. Michigan dominated that common opponent, while Texas lost to them.

Michigan sucks, that's why.
That said, Tom Herman has shown to have the tendency of his teams to have let down games after big wins so far in his HC career. Maybe he spends the entire week at the strip club
I'm not going to argue with you there. I expected more from Michigan and am hopeful they are just starting the season slow.
My thought was, Texas and Michigan have one common opponent. Michigan won by 3 TD's, while Texas lost. I'm just wondering why Texas leaped so far ahead of them on the polls (really why they leaped in front at all)

Cause Herman > Harbs
...as VT ranked at all last week before Notre Dame brained their overrated arse? ODU beat em and the Duke win impressed somebody ? Stupid
The way I compare two teams is by:Wait, "3 decent wins" should trump the results of a common opponent with only 6 weeks in the season? What constitutes a "decent win", and why does that erase a loss to a common opponent when comparing two teams?
