Big 10 Championship Game Open Thread
No meteors seem in the forecast in the greater Indiana area per NASA, so we'll be forced to watch our top 2 competitors in the East face off. Short of a 25+ pt blowout MSU is destined for the Rose, OSU is playing for the right to give up 60 pts to Florida State.
Have at it....

That said, I'll never forget me yelling run and he slung it to Hemingway as he jukes about 4 Illinois players into the endzone.

Like, at one time or per day?

Marky no longer smiling.

I know we're supposed to love Meyer's offense, but I surely can't be the only person who's noticed that an empty backfield is pretty much a guaranteed QB draw, right?

If OSU can get the ball back and get a TD it opens up 2nd half nicely as they get the ball. I think the 2nd TD by MSU sort of shocked OSU awake a bit. But MSU D has relegated OSU O to playground offense. Broken down plays by Miller is the offense.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Sparty fans getting cocky on the old social media. Dear God, am I really about to root for Ohio?
December 7th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
Love seeing MSU stick it to Ohio, who is terribly overrated. They're melting down at 11W. Here's a good quote from one of their threads:
How will us OSU fans get over this. This is the only game on our schedule that let us prove that we belonged. Everyone (all the SEC fans) are gonna eat this shit up
If Ohio wins, I think Auburn passes them up after today. But even if I was guaranteed Auburn would pass them, I still want to see Ohio lose.
I also think this game goes a long way to show the power of a dominant defense, and that Michigan has a long way to get there.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
How dominant does a D have to be if an O can actually do something to help out. I dont think you need a dominant D, just a D that can maintain and get stops when they need it.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:53 PM ^
A loss team is not passing an undefeated team. It has never happened before. It certainly won't happen when the 1 loss team has an awful defense and got hammered by a 3 loss team.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
I wish michigan took joey bosa when he wanted to come here
December 7th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:52 PM ^
aparently he tried to committ, but Hoke didn't let him
December 7th, 2013 at 9:59 PM ^
You have to be thinking about Tommy Schutt. Bosa was NEVER in danger of going anywhere but OSU.
December 7th, 2013 at 10:05 PM ^
yeah, it was schhutt
December 7th, 2013 at 10:00 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 10:01 PM ^
I think that was Schutt...not Bosa. It was because we had Pipkins.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:59 PM ^
It was about the time I started following recruiting, but I think you're thinking of Tommy Schutt? I'm quite certain Bosa never wanted to come to Michigan. He took a visit to OSU, proceeded to go to Michigan, tweeting that he was visiting the "school up north". Named a top 2 of OSU and Mich and quickly committed to OSU. A lot of people even think he named Michigan in the top two just to stoke the rivalry flames.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
I HATE that. Just fair catch the ball and you save about 5 seconds and 15 yards of field position.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
Speaking of terrible announcers, did anyone notice how insanely bad Joey Harrington was during the Texas game earlier today? I was actually embarrassed for him.
December 7th, 2013 at 10:08 PM ^
Yeah, he was so drab and monotone which was strange because I feel he's actually quite good in-studio. Maybe nerves but the color guy was no Gus Johnson himself.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
For all the D guys they're losing this year, it surely would be nice if Sparty were losing Sadler too.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:48 PM ^
MSU's defense is absolutely destroying OSU's offense, even with with that one drive.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:48 PM ^
MSU gonna give up points here or not?
December 7th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
I'm going with "yes".
December 7th, 2013 at 9:48 PM ^
Love the way Sparty defenders go low on Hyde.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:49 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:49 PM ^
I thought the spread offense, as directed by the Urban Meyer's of the world, couldn't be defended.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:49 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
Why the fuck would you send so many guys there? He was wide ass open!
December 7th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
Dammit MSU!!!! Can you please not fail?
December 7th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
Sparty NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
December 7th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
MSU has successfully taken away Hyde, making OSU 1 dimensional. But that1 dimension has woken up in the 2nd Q. It is Denardball!
December 7th, 2013 at 9:53 PM ^
December 7th, 2013 at 9:51 PM ^
Hoke woulda taken a knee. Still don't understand why we don't ever try to score before the half.
December 7th, 2013 at 9:53 PM ^
Hoke = Lloyd
December 7th, 2013 at 9:55 PM ^
Right, because Lloyd was known for going for it on 4th down and going for 2-point conversions to win?
