Evening Games Open Thread

This is your open thread for Nebraska's first Big 10 game and any other action you care to watch.

I'm off to re-read the Eleven Warriors LiveBlog. Buckeye tears have been so rare for so long that we shouldn't pass up any opportunity to enjoy them. Combined highlights for both teams included 7 of 30 3rd down conversions, 106 total rushing yards, 3 turnovers, 17 points, and 16 punts. Both teams have good defenses, but ugh, what a mess.

It's all John Navarre's fault.

"While this is borderline as far as praise for that state up north, it is meant only towards the individual:

Denard Robinson has the best vision as far as rushing I have ever seen. You can see him planning his second & third cut before the first tackler even gets to him.

With that said, Minnesota is truly yucky. Yikes."

Well, they basically shut down SDSU as well, so I'm starting to believe this defense may be more legit than merely scheming. 

And just for giggles, here are a couple of other meh teams in AQ conferences:

BC: 1-4, loses to Duke(!) and 30-3 to UCF

Oregon State and Colorado: combined 1-7, losses to Sacramento St,  20 point loss to OSU.

But yeah, Minny might be one of the worst teams in college football, but I do think that if they get Gray back they'll knock off a couple of teams this year.  UM played about as perfect a game as one could expect.

Wisconsin has played no one this year and relied entirely on their line outweighing smaller lines.  I think unless Russell Wilson can do something amazing, Wisconsin gets shut down and taken apart.  Nebraska has looked weak but they've played higher level talent and proven more IMHO.

I agree Neb is overrated.  I just feel like Wisconsin is even more overrated.  Although as it stands on this drive Wisconsin is looking good.  

Both teams look sloppy though, penalties and puttng the ball on the ground abound.

Martinez has the most messed up delivery.  It's a sidearm shot put as far as I can tell.  I wonder if the coaches are ever going to fix that.

Nebraska's passing offense is even more fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants than ours.

Martinez has decent speed, but it looks purely straight line.  He lacks that ability to juke and instantly accelerate in the other direction.  Is it wrong to not really be all that afraid of him?

He made that Nebraska linebacker look pretty dumb there. I'd be scared of him.

Edit: It's not that he's that amazing, he just adds a dimension that, when combined with a really good running game and a solid defense, can take Wisconsin from good to a can beat anyone in the country level.

It's all John Navarre's fault.

Purdue is doing pretty well, by Purdue standards, only down 14-0 at the end of the first.  Keep ND under 50 will be an achievement for them.

And not just because it will help us in our division. Let's be honest; nobody wants to see the new kid in town come in and roll through the Big Ten.

They're huge, they're awesome, yada yada.  I'm not disagreeing but I've seen several egregious holds.  And I know everyone holds, but at least two were really bad and right in front of officials.

I would imagine refs give them a lot of deference because they're supposed to be an awesome blocking machine.

ND up 14-0 on Purdue already and is +1 in turnover margin. They could slaughter the rest of their schedule if they stop turning the ball over.

It's all John Navarre's fault.

Going to admit something I'm not proud of...I think Alabama's fight song is cool. I also think Rammer Jammer is a cool tradition.

Edit: 10-10 in Gainesville

It's all John Navarre's fault.

Clemson is up 23-3 against Virginia Tech.  Who should be ahead of them in the polls if that lead is maintained?  I can't think of many.  Like probably all of you, I'm a fan of moving teams up and down

Generally, I'm with you. However, can we all agree that Clemson will screw at least two games just because they're Clemson?

John Brantley just mistook his lineman for a receiver and threw to the guy he was blocking. Alabama returned it for a TD. 17-10 Alabama.
