Noon (11:30) Games Open Thread

Touchdown Penn State to seal it.

EDIT: Well, ALMOST a TD.

Of all the shit we have seen go down with Sparty over the last few years, an INDIANA player finds himself ejected? WTF

How the hell did they come to the conclusion that Sparty recovered that?

HAHA, they have to get back to playing hoosier football, funniest thing I've heard all day.

That was complete bullshit!  IU recovered, and that MSU player was pulling the IU player off the pile, then the IU player kinda punched him in the chest -- nothing big.  The ref threw the flag, then went after #83 and kicked him out.  Fucking moron, the #19 kid was right in front of him, then walked away.

That's close as you can get without getting a TD.  

EDIT:  NO WAY that was aTD...not that it matters.

You can count on them to wilt when the game's on the line in the 4th quarter.

for? The only thing I saw was an MSU player yanking at an Indiana's player's head. Also, no idea how they ruled that MSU recovered that.

Obvious holding not called.

just like Indiana to blow it

I still can't believe that they ruled MSU recovered that ball.

With 1:36 to go, Penn State tries to insert the final knife, but it looks like the ball was just short of the goal line. 

...and it is ruled a TD. The PAT is mere icing. 39-28 is going to be the final unless Northwestern can  get two possessions, find some holes and warp Colter through them. 

choked on a big dick for the whole second half, playing not to lose.  He alone lost this game for IU.  He never called a single pass for more than two yards after halftime, even when Narduzzi adjusted up to cover the short stuff.  Failure to adjust on offense cost IU the game.

Flag was for a surprise colonoscopy or something, I don't know what the ref saw but he was PISSED. Gave him the business.

about PSU as a whole and it's fans, you have to give the PSU players some credit for picking themselves off the mat, after a horrible start to the year.

IU has Vanderbilt's same karma.  Not only do they lack the skill players to compete, but they always get screwed by the refs when they do have a glimmer of a chance.

Penn State announcers just said that Penn State and Ohio State were the best teams in the Big Ten. I understand the argument for Ohio, but Penn State? They lost to a Mac team.

Sparty gets away with a lot of holds. They must practice how to cover it up.

Where was the aggression on offense from Indiana that we saw in the first half??

Dantonio is going to try to score again.  

Haha, Lou Holtz' mic is malfunctioning.

Sadly, they're trying to fix it.

Finally they cut of Holtz's mic. Took them too long.

This announcing is just terrible.  They are trying so hard to hype up MSU because they know just how bad the Big Ten is.

is the loss of Sims. That's a killer for MSU. Maxwell uses Sims a lot.

Time to get ready for Michigan football!!!!

How about Northwestern?  Getting outscored 22-0 in the 4th quarter.

As an IU student that game makes me so mad. Most of it has to do with the QB situation. Nate Sudfeld is a true freshman who has out performed Coffman in every chance he has gotten and yet the coaches won't play him. I think if he would have started IU could have won by a lot. All my friends are confused by the situation as well. IU played extremely hard and that is encouraging at least.

It's mind-boggling.

Glad to see MSU almost lose to Indiana. Shows they are bad and can't play on the road.
