We have sources inside the Horseshoe reporting that Michigan coach Lloyd Carr has just called Jim Tressel to see if he could purchase a copy of Tressel’s Guide To Beating D1AA Schools At Home In The Home Opener After Beginning The Season Ranked In The Top Twenty-five. It’s the same manual OSU used this afternoon to beat Youngstown State University.
Tressel politely declined and went back to ironing his sweater vest.

PS: I hate Michigan.
