GameDay Finale and Noon Games Open Thread

Submitted by B-Nut-GoBlue on

Last half hour of College GameDay wrappping up down in Tallahassee.  I think Florida State blows the Canes' out personally.  "Eat Mor Ibis" and "Nevin Shapiro paid for this sign" are my picks for best signs, FWIW.

A slate of primarily Big Ten Noon games is coming up:  Purdue can do their annual "somehow hang with Ohio State and manage to lose in the final minutes".  BTN

Wisconsin is in Iowa City taking on the Hawkeyes.  Chris Borland is apparently battling a hamstirng injury; big loss if so, Iowa's run game may be elevated because of this.  ABC

Illinois @ Penn St.  Meh.  ESPN.

Virginia Tech @ Boston College, ESPN2.

(Mississippi St. @ Jadaveon Clowney U @ 12:30, ESPN3)

Beat Sparty.  Can't wait for this one.  31 - 20 Michigan, making for feel-good evening/night ahead.

Going to be sitting in an academic building on FSU's campus to watch Michigan-Michigan State and then head to the FSU-Miami game. Seems like a good year to have started grad school at FSU.

Yeah this knob "didn't know Big Ten country played football still".  Wonderful.  Obviously has no clue about the landscape of college football, which fine, but why are you selected to give picks if your ignorant to the whole concept?  Also, why does Corso have a scarf?*

*Well, to cover up the vibrant yellow underneath apparenly!

It is becoming apparent that Purdue is attempting to figure how how exactly to get a first down by employing Zeno's Dichotomy Paradox. No matter, as Purdue led the yardage battle until that second Buckeye TD just now.

Ohio may want to consider trying to run it up on people. They're 4th in the current pecking order and with no strong opponents left (sorry, us at #21 doesn't cut it) they don't have a chance to make up any ground against Bama, Oregon or FSU. They need to crank out blowouts or they're going to remain at #4 (this assuming all four teams go undefeated)

OSU is just clicking all over. Must be nice. I'd like to watch a few games where we don't have to worry about shitty teams hanging around all day.

Iowa's being gift wrapped field position by good defense and wind that's killing Wiscy's punts.  They've 3 points to show for it.

We'll see if they can manage something on this drive.

Of course not.  Spielman mentioning how Ferentz will just punt and keep winning field position battle.  What the hell good is it if you don't ever get any points out of it?!
