I just watched a good chunk of the game. I get it now. By "maize," you mean corn. Their pants are the color of corn. That would make sense... if they were the Cornhuskers. For a team from Michigan, I think it makes more sense to have chrome pants.
In general, the real problem with college football (compared with professional football) is that it isn't fair. There aren't exactly salaries, but all the best players in the country are recruited to a few dozen teams. Just looking at Michigan's offensive and defensive lines, you can tell it isn't fair. I heard USC has a tight end coach. That's right; a university shells out for a tight end coach. The professional system with salary caps just works better. That way, you know it really is the coaching and teamwork that makes the difference.
I rooted for USC. Sorry, but more good punk bands come out of suburban Southern California than suburban Michigan.
