Dropped Like A Rock

So, in case you don't live in Michigan or follow sports or have been under a rock all weekend, UofM lost to Appalachian State (Div-1AA) on Saturday at home 34-32. They had a field goal blocked on the last play of the game. It was madness (not Sparta). The new rankings came out today, and Michigan has dropped out of the Top 25 completely. That is the first time a top-5 team has dropped out in one week since 1968! They have a lot to prove throughout the rest of the season here. I'm a Michigan State fan (in fact, I was at the MSU game...they won 55-18...Saturday and cheered with everyone else in the stadium when the Michigan score appeared on the scoreboard, and the game was mostly fun) but I usually don't really root against UofM. It was quite nice to see the Wolverines eating some humble pie, though. Notre Dame also got beat up pretty good at home. They have been down for a while now. I think it's time they got better...
