I don't know who to root for in that one.

If Mich!g@n wins, the B1G looks good, and it will be that much sweeter when the undefeated Buckeyes beat the undefeated Wolverines to lock up an AP national title.

If Alabama wins, no big deal. #2 should beat #8. They could then proceed to only win 6 games the rest of the season, with a loss to Ohio State, and finish the season with a bewildered Brady Hoke losing in some irrelevant bowl game against the Ohio Bobcats. This would naturally cause all of their recruits to decommit and spark a nine month discussion of who will be the worst team in the B1G between them and Indiana.

I just can't decide which scenario would be sweeter.
