Less Respect Today

I realize that if we just keep winning, none of the media chatter matters but it is interesting to read stories today and realize that the media has less respect for this team today than yesterday even after the win. The narratives I have seen include:

-The Penn St offense that everyone was raving about last week is suddenly awful and our offense is only MHJ (no mention of Henderson and Egbuka being out).

-The win was more about Penn St losing it instead of us winning it. There have also been references that Penn State's defense is better than ours. 

-Michigan is so good that it doesn't matter that we beat PSU, they will win the Big Ten. In fact, they are getting far more credit for their 49-0 win over MSU (a team which got destroyed by Washington, 41-7 before they melted down and have lost 5 straight) than we are for beating a top 7 team. 

I have been tough on the team for not dominating games and about lost it yesterday after Coach Day's 2 awful calls at PSU's goal line but we are worthy of respect after 2 wins over current top 15 teams (one on the road). 

Why do you think there is so much disrespect for these Bucks?
