they could pull a miracle out of their ass against Michigan or Ohio State, but that's just the past talking. losing four in a row, getting blown out by BYU and Northwestern, allowing 54 points to the latter (the same Wildcats team that scored 7 points against Illinois State) -- they are dreadful by every measure.

and it's the usual heavy mix of upperclassmen that are starting. just completely out of nowhere for one of the strongest programs of the last half decade.
