Baylor-WVU, over/under 110 points?

the Goldens, has anyone done a CC about Coach Hazzel, I'm jumping on the bandwagon...

Ugh...frustrating watching Purdue keep up with Minny without too much effort, especially with that INT on the first play of ther game.  Hard not to focus on how badly Hoke blew it by not playing Gardner against the Gophers.

What a terrible play to call. K-State pick six.

of the first half; there is a penalty on the PAT which is followed by the kick hitting the goal post to be no good; Minn 20 Purdue 14. The way this game is playing out that extra point might be big.

Bill Snyder give him the keys to the city.

Lockett is still a beast I see

blow a chance to sack the quarterback for a loss and instead give up a first down to make it go to goal Terps. Interested to see what kind of ball the Terps play as I'm going to the Michigan game on the 22nd. So far they look dangerous; they've had two big turnovers already and suddenly they might have coughed it up on Iowa's one, replay booth looking into it...oooh, they got lucky, they get to keep the ball...touchdown terps! Maryland 17 Iowa 14...

KSTATE td 21-14 leading oklahoma

someone has scored. This time it's the Boilermakers, 21-20 Boilers. Oh, they just recovered a fumble. With a penalty on Minnesota the ball will be on the Gopher 14...

Is purdue getting better or does the Big ten just suck??

Purdue 21 minnesota 20

24-20 Purdue

In the Baylor game, is a purposeful shoulder to the chin still targetting or not?  

Minnesota forced a fumble at their goal line. Safety scooped it and had returned it almost to midfield when the play was blown dead and ruled an incomplete pass; he might have otherwise scored. Replay showed the receiver made the catch and fumbled after a big hit. But the officials did not overturn the call. Pure cowardice, IMO; they didn't want to admit the play was a fumble and the erroneous call was the difference between a probable Purdue score or a Minnesota stop+big return.

Purdue looks decent. I'm glad MICH doesn't play them this year.

Just bought B1G network. Gophers gacking it.

Purdue on pace to out score Michigan vs. Minny by 4.5x at the half

Stupid, stupid move by Holgerson to not put a returner back on that punt.  

that this year M football wasn't as horrendous as RR year 1 or Lions 0-16, fading with Purdue up on Minny by 11 at half. I thought Minny was proving reasonably mediocre (so we were only bad, not bod gawful BA-AA-AD!

CJ Brown for Maryand apears hurt, possible neck injury.  HUGE issue.  Maryland's backup went down with an ACL injury this week/today(?).

Absolutely AWFUL non-call on Minnesota hitting the punter. He didn't get close to tipping that ball. Should have been 15 and still Purdue's ball. 

Man you guys all remember how Denard used to run that QB Power Read and just throw over the biting linebacker/safety? KState is wrecking OU with it atm. 

One of the few RR play calls I remember vividly right next to Denard right, Denard left, and Denard middle.

This Baylor-WVU game is being atrociously officiated.  Fuck these dudes and their goddamn yellow laundry.

Don't let a WR throw the ball in the red zone. Come on, OU.

Fox's Pereira (sp?) is now reporting that there's nothing in the rulebook that allows there to be a review of whether a pass was behind the line of scrimmage or not.  You can review where the QB was but apparently nothing says you can review whether the receiver was.  

For those not in the know, it matters b/c there was a WVU reception that was originally judged to be caught beyond, but there was an o-lineman downfied (?!)  But on review they decided the receiver caught the pass behind the line and so they subsequently picked up the flag.  WVU went on to kick a field goal.

Iowa has been held in check since they rolled out to a 14-0 lead but Maryland has been doing most of the threatening since; had it not been for turnovers they would have been up more than 17-14 at half.

Purdue might hang 50 on Minnesota.  God damn it our coaching staff sucks.

Petty was running out of bounds and a WVU defender dove and cut him down at the knees as Petty was running out of bounds.  It kind of looked late, but I'd have to look at it again.  It was certainly unnecessary as Petty was in no poisition given momentum and the like to cut it upfield.

Petty is up but not going into the game.

I was seeing what games were on this evening and noticed that NBC is showing Rudy opposite the ND vs FSU game on ABC.

It seems impossible to predict over 80% of Big Ten games or college games in general. I would not gamble on CFB. Teams that shouldn't win do ona regular basis. Fun though.

Holy four-man sack Batman.
