The way Michigan’s offense has been going this quarter, I would have just let the clock run down, escape to the locker room with a 2-score lead, and regroup.
If Houston beats Cincinnati, I don't see how the CFP isn't Georgia, Alabama, Michigan and Notre Dame in some order, unless Michigan gets blown out by Iowa.
update: Cincy now appears to be on its way, 28-13. Michigan needs to win to get in.
