Is it possible the issue is unrealistic expectations? I get how big of a deal the Ohio State game is, and the Michigan coach is expected to win his fair share of those. But other than that, I’m seeing 10-3, 9-4, a “down” year of 8-5. Is Michigan really a better team than that in 2020?
What do they not have that Ohio State does, for that matter they have some years behind Wisconsin and Penn State as well.
Nobody is saying they should be Alabama or Clemson but they have everything needed to at least occasionally beat Ohio State and be the top team in the B1G.
Since we’re talking about elite production, finite degrees of separation matter. As long as tOSU, Alabama, Clemson, LSU, Georgia, OU, etc. are all willing to almost always make recruiting more important than academics, this is a barrier to championship success for Michigan. It’s not like Michigan has been terrible under Harbaugh. They just haven’t been good enough to win big. Academic standard bearing on their admin’s part is a major factor.
Oh, wow. I honestly assumed you were being sarcastic. I’m not sure how a coach at the 4th highest-grossing athletics department In the nation is at some sort of disadvantage. Especially coming from a fan of a PAC12 team.

coach O wants to know where another Burrow is
And Auburn could easily have another touchdown if they hadn't fumbled down at the goal line. Great tackle by the Auburn kicker to save a touchdown right before the half.

How does VT let that happen just now?Moved down to the hotel lobby / bar area to watch end of the Clemson/BC game and then the VT game.
Hotel staff getting ready for a shift change -- got my order in before my heavy pour girl took off.
was just messaging the wife that same question
the D we saw last week against Wake just returned.
Being behind Relentless Mel & MSU in addition to Ohio State and Penn State won't sit well with Michigan fans.
Brady Quinn on the halftime show discussing Clemson-ND next week: That Clemson playoff win over ND a few years ago was much closer than the score indicated.

I switched over to the Texas-OSU game at halftime and just now checked the score after seeing this post.
Score one for the player debate. With the COVID-19 opt outs and the NFL declarations, LSU’s season was DOA.
Woah what a catch by Wallace for OSU

Cash out at 99 percent now?
He never came back to me with a counter after our last discussion about the future, so the bet is live as originally bet. I’m supposed to call from him on Tuesday after he does this week’s collections. I’ll bring it up then.
This makes sense. I recall between hearing in interviews and reading an article during the last recruiting cycle that all the top programs all have their fair share of 3 and 4-star players, but what separates all the "very good" programs from the elite ones are the 5-star guys because there are so few of them. Also in there was a stat that tOSU has more 5-star players than the rest of the B1G combined. And I forget the exact numbers but the majority of 5-star guys were signing with a handful of programs (tOSU, Bama, Clemson, UGA)

Okie state taking advantage of UT’s refusal to bracket or play over top of Wallace, or press on corner.
okie State’s DBs are very active. Creating problems fir Sam E.
UT46 is a complete stud. Bottling OSU30.
I’m finding the strategy interesting. But, then again, I like this Pokes team
Too bad their special teams just undid a big stop
