Is Michigan's Rodriguez out of a job?
Job speculation swirled through Michigan's postgame press conference Saturday as the media peppered coach Rich Rodriguez with questions about his future.
Understandably, sideline fodder is a hot topic. Ohio State pounded Michigan 37-7 at Ohio Stadium, earning a seventh straight win in the rivalry. Worse, the Buckeyes administered the third straight double-digit beating in the Rodriguez Era.
Could it cost Rodriguez his job?
"I worry about my future every day," Rodriguez said. "I worried about it before I took this job. I worried about it after I got this job, but nothing is going to change how we work.
"I'm not deterred one bit. I think the worst is behind us. I know it is."

"This will sting for a little bit, which it should."
Outwardly, the players had little reaction to their coach's status.
"That's outside of what we can control," junior defensive end Ryan Van Bergen said. "We can't get distracted by that stuff."
When asked if he thought about his coach's future, sophomore Jordan Kovacs echoed Van Bergen.
"Not at all. We play for each other," Kovacs said.
Even the Wolverines' brightest star had a tough day.
Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson, a Heisman candidate in some corners, enjoyed a fine statistical first half. He rushed for 101 yards and threw for 76 more. But the speedy sophomore dislocated two fingers on his left hand and sat out most of the final two quarters.
The Florida native moved his team early but struggled to finish drives. The Wolverines converted just one of three red-zone opportunities.
"We would get inside the 10, but we've got to score then," said Robinson, who coughed up a key fumble at the OSU 9-yard line in the first half.

The Michigan defense, berated all season long as one of the nation's worst units, started strong. The Buckeyes went three-and-out on their first two drives before quarterback Terrelle Pryor converted a third down with a 39-yard bullet to Dane Sanzenbacher. That play seemed to wake up Ohio State and begin an offensive onslaught that led to 478 total yards.
