OT: Pranksters on the B10 Call

Does anyone know what was said?

 

Each week the Big Ten issues a special pass code for media members to block prank callers on the teleconference.

But on Tuesday, prank callers asked Penn State coach Joe Paterno a couple of questions and also directed one at Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald . The callers, who identified themselves as reporters from USA Today and Hartford Courant, were abruptly interrupted when moderator Scott Chipman realized they were not legitimate questions.

"Must be Halloween week, huh?" Fitzgerald said, laughing.

...used the words "Michigan" and "3rd down stop" in the same sentence and everyone just assumed they were joking.

What goes into the decision to eat a persons brain? Is it just the terrible, unsatiable hunger of your kind or does anything about the person factor into it? What was it like walking across the ocean floor to get to America?*
