About a month ago, Michigan also found themselves up against Alabama for the services of a five-star recruit. It ended like most big-stage situations Michigan has found themselves in under Brady Hoke: disappointment.

Fast forward to today, and it's Ohio State winning a battle against Alabama for a gem out of SEC country. Enter Michigan fan T_Wiita27; if only he had heeded his advice almost a week ago:
I'm such an idiot.
