Late Afternoon Games Open Thread
I will be watching Ohio vs. Sparty on ABC (ESPN), but you can find a full listing of games here:

Nice to win by a lot. And give up no points. I feel relaxed
October 1st, 2011 at 3:17 PM ^
Best game on right now: T A&M Arkansas on ESPN. Tied at 35 with 7 to go
October 1st, 2011 at 3:19 PM ^
Navy going for 2 with :19 left vs. AF
October 1st, 2011 at 3:20 PM ^
Also, IU driving for win, down 6 with 30 sec to go...
October 1st, 2011 at 3:44 PM ^
This game has gone bonkers with the Arkansas comeback.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:18 PM ^
Pitt smacked USF and Michigan earned the LBJ (once again). All I'm hoping for is a Northwestern loss and an MSU loss.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:22 PM ^
Heck of an ending on the NW-Ill game.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:25 PM ^
Persa scares me a lot. Him not rushing helps, but he's still very scary to me.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:36 PM ^
Same here. I'm not worried about next week if he doesn't play, but I'm terrified if he does.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:39 PM ^
He's very good. Like, as good as ESPN thought Tate was after ND (plus they have a similar skillset). OTOH he literally is NU, they can't compete in the Big Ten without him.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:39 PM ^
He is the make or break for that team. Terrified for sure if he's healthy.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:39 PM ^
I feel so dirty watching sparty - buckeyes
October 1st, 2011 at 3:41 PM ^
The one day a year that I'm a sparty fan
October 1st, 2011 at 3:57 PM ^
Yup, and that touchdown made me kinda happy. Mainly b/c it made so many people in ohio mad
October 1st, 2011 at 4:21 PM ^
I crave them.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:29 PM ^
I also enjoy their sadness. Their anger just amuses me more.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:45 PM ^
This is much tougher than anticipated. I'm rooting for a 3-0 osu win. Sparty falls and Ohio stadium is full of frustrated fans for 60 mintues.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:58 PM ^
That is a great way to look at this game
October 1st, 2011 at 3:47 PM ^
At least they have the perfect announcer for the toilet bowl down there. Matt Freaking Millen.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:41 PM ^
I feel dirty rooting for either team in the OSU/MSU game, but I'm gonna have to root for Sparty. I think OSU losing a bunch of games this year helps us in the long run.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:43 PM ^
Thank god Matt Millen is calling the Sparty/Bucks game. He can teach us all a thing or two about player evaluation.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:43 PM ^
this game is a thing of beauty so far
October 1st, 2011 at 3:51 PM ^
Just ugly.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:48 PM ^
Both of these teams have pretty ugly offenses. Gonna be a low scoring game for sure.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:50 PM ^
I am rooting for a 0-0 tie through 3 overtimes.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:51 PM ^
If you turn on SMU-TCU, Rich Rodriguez is the color commentator.
Please don't kill me.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:18 PM ^
If he was covering the CFL it would be colour commentator.
October 1st, 2011 at 5:03 PM ^
so take it for what it is but I think he's decent on the CBS calbe show on college football. With Dabo saving his job, I wonder where RR will end up.
October 1st, 2011 at 3:56 PM ^
Also, Big Ten Icons: Bo Schembechler starts in 4 minutes on BTN.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:13 PM ^
So many things to do and only 2 tvs and there is a set of stairs between them FML
October 1st, 2011 at 4:00 PM ^
Nice offense by OSU so far.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:00 PM ^
We should be favored against OSU this year. Their offense is TERRIBLE!
October 1st, 2011 at 4:05 PM ^
Michigan state is running a lot better than versus Notre Dame, also better than I expected. I thought this would become a cream Kirk Cousins game.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:06 PM ^
Why doesn't Bauserman play; he can actually complete passes.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:11 PM ^
This Ohio State playcalling has been comical. 3rd & 9? Power run out of the shotgun with my 200-lb quarterback.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:19 PM ^
Anyone else want Hankins to break Cousins for what went down with his recruitment? He would be so helpful for Michigan right now. Not that I want an injury, but I want him to create some chaos in MSU's backfield.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:16 PM ^
Pretty sure Braxton Miller thought he was going to get tackled by the Sparty player standing on the sidelines. It's fun watching OSU's offense.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
Why isn't there a coach talking to Miller when the drive ends? You'd think he could be learning a lot from mistakes.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:18 PM ^
The 11W liveblog is feeding my insatiable appetite for buckeye tears.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:26 PM ^
More saltwater on there than in the gulf of mexio right now!
October 1st, 2011 at 4:19 PM ^
I want to punch ABC/ESPN in the throat. The MSU-OSU game is blacked out on ESPN and ESPNHD where I am, but I can get it in sub-standard definition on ESPN Alternate. ABC is showing Baylor-KSU.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:34 PM ^
Braxton Miller cannot throw a spiral.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:35 PM ^
I didn't realize Adam Sandler was the new OSU coach.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:35 PM ^
Bethune-Cookman at Miami (Fla) during commercials of the Ohio State-Michigan State game. Incredibly, Bethune looks better and is leading 7-0 midway through the 2nd quarter.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:40 PM ^
1-play Miami drive, TD. Now 7-7.
EDIT: Ugh, another very short drive, another Miami score. Miami, 14-7. Figured it probably couldn't last long.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:36 PM ^
That was a great play by the MSU corner. Ripped it right out of the reciever's hands.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:47 PM ^
I just signed on as craig james and dead hookers on 11 warriors. I love making people laugh when they are crying and sad.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:47 PM ^
The Sackable Man
October 1st, 2011 at 4:53 PM ^
SPARTY NOOOOO
October 1st, 2011 at 4:54 PM ^
Can't wait to hear the chorus of boos from the stands when the half ends.
October 1st, 2011 at 4:58 PM ^
There it is. Oh dear lord, yes!
