To Brian: I got a chuckle out of Mickey Geslak’s take on Ohio State and Michigan’s newfound place at the top of college football world. Obviously Geslak had is head in the sand for the last 20 years. Ohio State was usually at the epicenter of college football for most of this period, amassing 12 major bowl or playoff wins, playing in five title games, winning two. Michigan has won exactly three major bowls or playoff games over the same span. Let’s not forget that Michigan took a powder on playing the Buckeyes in 2020, a sure victory for OSU, and then most likely cheated their way to victories in 2021 and 2022. Geslak and Michigan fans have always been a little touchy considering seven of Michigan’s purported national titles came before Charlie Chaplin was a movie star or most people had indoor plumbing.
