ESPN's veiled shot at the Big Ten:

Submitted by Sommy on
What to watch for: Week 5 http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?page=watch091002 Big Ten Will the real Cal please stand up? California can't possibly be as bad as it looked at Oregon. You look up and down the roster and check off guys with NFL futures and just shake your head. So, do the Bears put it together and play to their potential against USC (ABC, 8 p.m. ET)? Or will they look out of sync again? It's possible that Cal could put forth a strong effort and still lose, but at least that might leave some sparks for a strong run through the rest of the conference slate. Uh...?

You can see that the Pac-10 analysis is from last week. Whoever was cutting/pasting over last week's material probably just pasted two paragraphs in the same spot and failed to notice.

Since when has ESPN been veiling their shots at the Big Ten? [EDIT: ESPN has it fixed now. They want to know if OSU will shut out IU...that's what they think you should watch for. FWIW, I think that the question to answer is Will Tate Forcier still be Cool Hand Luke in the 4th quarter when he needs to lead the team on a game winning drive in a hostile environment? Or will Sparty...NOOOOOOOOO happen again?]
