Man, I hate Ohio State. WMU should be up 14-7 right now. Marching down the field with ease twice in a row and then their freaking center kills them twice!

WMU had this game in good shape and blew it. Wow. I guess it would have reverted back to normal anyway, but it's frustrating that teams self-destruct when they have a chance against OSU.

OSU's offense might be nice and shiny, but the defense is pretty mediocre.

Western's special teams are horrible.

I am just going to say it - Maryland's helmets kind of deserve to be down 35-0 with the 2nd quarter now ticking under five minutes.

...and with that, Brandon Ross commits just about the most dramatic touchback we've seen recently, at least where a fumble into the end zone is involved. That is, if they call it as such after the review.

The thing that's going to bite OSU in the ass is the PATHETIC schedule they play.

Right now they're looking mediocre against mediocre teams... they're gonna be in for a rude awakening once MSU and Michigan roll around.

If the score is close again I'm wondering if they deserve to be the #1 team in the country.

MSU continues to look completely overrated. For Connor Cook to be even considered a heisman candidate he better start putting up some numbers cause that isn't gonna cut it. Also they played Central... I watched the Air Force game but didn't see them today.

Akeel Lynch pretty gimpy for PSU. Making that offense slightly less intimidating. Hackenberg looks a little less PTSD-y today.

This OSU gme is nauseating as usual. They schedule the easiest non-conference schedule possible to figure out the beginning of the season and they go on a tear the rest of the year. I'm sure they're feeling all high and mighty now beating a 1-2 WMU squad by a couple of touchdowns due to basically WMU screwing up not OSU playing that well. It's unbearable to watch and listen to as now all of a sudden th announcing team sucks them off. Glad we had the A team with Spielberg and McDonough and not the scrubs that were assigned to this game as its irritating to listen to.

It's possible that western is moderately undisciplined, but I swear the refs are throwing flags every time wmu snaps the ball at this point. It's getting out of hand.

Man, the media has OSU's and MSU's balls in their mouths. "Not sure" about that intentional grounding? He was inside the pocket and threw it into the seats!

And earlier, MSU "firing on all cylinders," which apparently is now slang for "outgained for the third time in four games".

I'm not usually one to give props to any cable or satellite providers but Xfinity's new "previous channel" feature that actually allows you to browse back through your last SIX watched is pretty handy for college football Saturdays.
