They beat Georgia which they had not in a few years, kept them from winning another title. So they were just as good. They are like Duke and Coach K of the past and they get the blue chippers every year top to bottom like OHST. Mich. has no top 10 offense player maybe QB, 3rd rd. RB, 3Rd. rd WR OL 3rd? TE 6th? Everybody overrates Mich talent compared to the rest. I would argue Bama,LSU,OHST Georgia maybe WASH. Have better talent. Mich has a lot of very good players and a coach who knows how to win. N.C. has better talent then what everybody is saying too, 2 top LB's, top QB, WR ranked higher and TE ranked higher....USC has talent too maybe a cut below over all.
