More B1G matchups with OSU & NW representing.  Part of me would love to see the B1G go undefeated but I can't bring myself to wish anything good for the bucnuts.

Definitely tuning in to see the fighting Fitzes take on those mangy Wildcats at 4:30

I've got two kids - 11 and 14 - and got remarried and now have 3 step kids (5 total). One of the step kids is a 17.5 boy. So yeah, beer goes "missing" from time to time. Damnedest thing...

Same here. I have never, ever bought into the whole "You have to root for your conference" bullshit. Using that rationale, I'd have to root for tosu and Staee. That falls into the category of "Not if you put a gun to my head."

Having said that, I usually pull for Northwestern, simply because they have decades of past athletic futility to overcome.

And oddly, I'll usually root for Wisconsin. I really don't know why. Maybe I was from Sheboygan in a past life.

Bells bells bells down into my belly. Winter White and Two Hearted all weekend long because I have a surplus in the mini fridge. How is the Kzoo Stout? After dabbling with them over the years I've been on a Stout/Porter kick lately?

Very difficult to pull for the Trojans, but that’s the path I must take.

Also, got a couple (read 6) White Elm Inverted Galaxies waiting for me at home... should be a good night for the old lady.

TAMU running back crosses goal line, but is ruled down at the 1. Broadcast crew says "that's a touchdown." Replay clearly shows ball over the line with RB's ass still inches off the ground. Color guy then says, "well I don't know if there is anything there to overturn the call." Play-by-play guy agrees. Official then announces that the call on the field stands. Broadcast crew then says, "great job by the officials. They got the call right on the field and it was upheld on video review." WTF, man. I am rooting for Wake, but uggghh.

I dug this article up: "Depending on where you live, you'll see "New Yorker Brewing Co." from Utica, New York or"Hopfen und Malz Brewing Co." from San Jose, California listed on the label as the brewery. TTB filings shows that New Yorker is really the F.X. Matt Brewing Co. and Hopfen un Malz is actually Gordon Biersch Brewing Co. Matt brews the Saranac line of beers. I profiled a Saranac winter beer variety pack a few years ago."

So yeah, Gordon Beirsch is a bit like Sam Adams except worse. I've never heard of Saranac.  The price is probably right though, so if your $20 is going for a case of Miller Lite or a case of Kirkland Signature, it's probably just a matter of what style you prefer.

Light up Ohio State's secondary, big time, and give the Michigan staff lots of ideas to employ for The Game next season.  

I normally can't stand USC, but they are welcome to beat the snot out of Ohio State any time.

I never particularly hated Texas A&M, but during bowl season, I so despise every single SEC team that I derive much pleasure from every loss they suffer.

With my kids and my new wife. What an incredible game to be at. It was a blast. Now we're at the Nascar Hall of Fame ice skating. An annual tradition. I'll be watching Northwestern on my phone while doing this LOL

Nah, he pretty agressively grabbed the refs wrists to shove him away.

BUT, the ref grabbed the player first, to help him up, but he just walked up and grabbed the player by the chest while he was still recovering from getting tackled 3 minutes after the whistle.

Refs shouldn't be helping players up, slapping their asses, telling them good game, or any other non-professional shit.
