The pre-season college football rankings for Washtenaw County are out today

The first Ypsi City Desk/Sports Amalgamated Washtenaw County college football rankings were released a mere 30 minutes ago. Let's take a look shall we?

1) Eastern Michigan
2) Michigan

Normally you'd find the Wolverines up top but the bad losses last year, the uncertainity of a new coach and program direction, lawsuits back and forth between West Virginia and an exodus of starters all conspire to drop Michigan to #2. EMU defeated Western AND Central last year and have a stabilizing entity as head coach who is not embroiled in needless controversy. Add to this fact EMU only lost to Michigan by 11 last year and that's where the flip comes in.
