If Russell Wilson had stayed out east and RichRod was still coaching
in Ann Arbor, I think the Huskers may well have clinched the division
yesterday.

Next year Wisky won't have RW, Michigan may not have Denard Robinson
(if he opts to go in the draft) and Michigan has to come to Lincoln.

TM will be a year older and hopefully a year wiser, too.  Rex Burkhead may
get some Heisman consideration, though QBs seem to dominate the field
lately.  As to the Blackshirts, well, they have been pretty inconsistent 
this year, so next year has a lot of upside potential regardless of how 
many great players they lose to graduation or the NFL.
