I've been talking to former Michigan players and they are convinced that Jim Harbaugh isn't coming back to Michigan. My sources say he will opt for the NFL as he believes he can always return to the college game if things in the NFL don't work out.
West Virginia should have beaten UConn and really deserved to be in the BCS. All of their losses were by less than a TD including 20-14 at LSU. Makes me wonder if they go undefeated with Rich Rod in charge.
