The big house expansion is hot # 20 if you missed it.
August 17th, 2010 at 2:49 PM ^
How did i miss that.

20. Stadium expansion: Michigan's Big House expanded capacity to more than 108,000 seats and added 82 suites. Alabama's Bryant-Denny Stadium also grew to more than 101,800 seats. Expansion projects also increased stadiums at Kansas, East Carolina, Louisville and Texas Tech.

I think what you've posted is pretty dead on.
1) The Big Ten had a good bowl season and has 3 national title contenders this year (Iowa, Wisky, and OSU). League is stronger and deeper across the board.
2) Rich Rod has gone 8-16 in last 2 years. The public generally just looks at wins and losses, so...
3) Plenty of good week 2 games, most notably OSU-Miami and ND-UM. Should be fun
4) See point #1
5) Well, the Game just hasn't been the same the last 3 years. The Game will continue to slowly lose luster until Michigan can start winning. Not much of a Rivalry if you win only once in the last 9 games.

C'mon man! No matter how much we suck, the Game always feels momentous. Even when I saw our 2008 team run out and knew we were going to get slaughtered, I got the chills.

September 11: Penn State at Alabama.
August 17th, 2010 at 2:47 PM ^
Check out #11 on the list. Two former Wolverines listed there... definitely a disparate collection of players.
August 17th, 2010 at 2:48 PM ^
ESPN (yawn)
August 17th, 2010 at 2:49 PM ^
4. RichRod: Rich Rodriguez enters the 2010 season firmly on the hot seat...
But he's not hot? Well thats a rather misleading seat.
August 17th, 2010 at 2:49 PM ^
This sounds like ESPN's attempt to reach into the previously untapped 13 year-old girl demographic.

That Miley Cyrus thought Ricky Stanzi was cute. Ivan was going to put that into his next ESPN Beat column.
August 17th, 2010 at 3:01 PM ^
So transferring into a program is hot, but transferring out is not? Uh, ESPN, each of those transfers into those respective programs required a transfer out of another program.
August 17th, 2010 at 3:43 PM ^
But see, that balances the universe ....
August 17th, 2010 at 3:45 PM ^
In the words of Omar,
The Game is the The Game.
August 17th, 2010 at 3:57 PM ^
Not: Ivan Maisel's heisman watch list. Stanzi but no Clay? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
August 17th, 2010 at 4:09 PM ^
The apostrophe is your friend. Don't shun him.
August 17th, 2010 at 4:42 PM ^
ESPN's stupid "What's hot and what's not" list that it shits out every year.
August 17th, 2010 at 4:44 PM ^
Hot: Team Leach (well, not really)
Not: The James family
