Holy crap is Oklahoma State unstoppable.
Michigan is anything but.

I was in the Big House today.  111,378 in attendance, 109,000 of which were Michigan fans, who are unfailingly polite, btw.  They're like the flip side, the bizarro C.al.  Great football (3-0 now), very polite and passionate and KNOWLEDGEABLE fans who can be a bit over the top.  I was next to a guy who was apoplectic about every 15th play for some reason or another.

Speights is a very poor quarterback, IMHO.  Sprays the ball.  Bad decisions.  Can't run.  Michigan won 29-13, but it wasn't remotely that close, 6-6 at half IIRC.  Air Force went 10-3 last year, crunched Southern Alabama in a minor bowl, but still...most of their WAC wins were by a TD or so.  Michigan showed a pretty good defense, and at times, a borderline desperate offense.

One of the fans opined that Michigan always does this with their third non-conference game.  Supposedly they looked past Air Force to their Big 10 opener against Purdue.  Maybe.  But they sure made a lot of stupid decisions, lots of mental mistakes that stopped offensive drives in their tracks.
