Great reasons why Mich might be overrated, but what's the flip side? Why would NW be underrated? They lost to Army and Illinois. They've only beaten Boston College and E. Michigan -- hardly any good teams.
NU under-rated because Persa makes the team.. if he plays, NU is a solid, borderline top 25 team.. when he doesn't, they lose to teams like Army..
Most will just look at who Northwestern played and assume they aren't any good.. not so fast.. Persa's 1st game back was last week, was a stud..
