Texans and Titans both won today. Last week, Pagano said he was "excited about where we are right now." I hope a reporter asks him if he's surprised about being in 3rd place at the bye week.
If Michigan loses, OSU will likely move up to #2. Even if they win their last two games, they could still miss the Big Ten title game if Penn State wins out (and they could; at Rutgers next week and home to MSU).
Could OSU be left out of the playoffs if they were #2 and didn't play in the Big Ten championship?
The defense is tired. Those first half fumbles didn't hurt us in terms of scoring, but our D had to be on the field longer than they should have been and it's starting to show.
