Bleacherreport.com says "The Michigan Wolverines are back! . . .  Brady Hoke has 
proven that the right coaching staff can make all of the difference."

Michigan may well be "back" and Brady Hoke may be their savior, but they won the 
Sugar Bowl thanks to Dame Fortune smiling on several passes that should have 
been picked and Virginia Tech's coach Frank Beamer's really stupid decision to 
try a fake punt at midfield.  His play calling was ultra conservative too, 
especially in Tech's final drive.  A win is a win, but the Big Ten shouldn't 
crow over this one too loudly.  Two victories by gnat's eyelashes in overtime do 
not a powerful conference make.
