Michigan State & Mel Tucker, Jim Harbaugh, Michigan Over UNLV, JJ McCarthy, Running Game

Michigan is rolling and Michigan State is reeling. Wolverine fans seem to be living it up right now.

There's plenty to talk about when it comes to Michigan football. JJ McCarthy has been razor sharp, the running game is just a little behind schedule, Jesse Minter's defense has been lights out and Jim Harbaugh has just one game remaining on his suspension. The Wolverines are easily 2-0 and still No. 2 in the country.

With that said, most people in the world of Big Ten football are talking about Mel Tucker and Michigan State. Tucker really blew it....and now it looks like he'll be out of a job as soon as the law allows. Michigan won't travel to East Lansing until October 21, which would be a little over two weeks after Tucker is officially terminated per the current timeline. It's really going to be interesting to see how things play out for MSU, as Michigan continues to win week after week.
