Jessie Palmer just said that the Michigan Wolverines head coach, "David Carr," needs to provide he can beat OSU this year for it to be Michigan's year.

I had no idea that after being booted by the Texans that David Carr chose to go into coaching and was able to land such a plumb coaching slot.

Following that, Robert Smith was asked if Purdue could be a "sleeper" in the Big Ten this year. Smith then scoffed and said, "Yeah, they're a sleeper... they'll stay asleep all year."

Clever, Robert, clever.

He also pulled out the one thing that analysts know about Purdue over the past few years: "They have Michigan and Ohio State back on the schedule now so this isn't their year."

Oh, they were off the schedule the past two years? I hadn't heard.
