Today's Schedule of Games
The Big Ten is back Baby! Strange as hell, but back nonetheless.
At noon: Be careful what you ask for Nebraska . . . you may get it. Also, the Axe Bowl - Rutgers at MSU. Not a 4-digit SAT score to be found anywhere. NC State at UNC will get chippy.
In the afternoon, PSU at Indiana could be a week 8 trap game . . . even though it's the first game. Notre Dame at Pitt could expose the fizzling ND hype. Iowa State at THE other OSU will be interesting. Is ISU becoming the new rags-to-riches Kansas State?
In the evening: The longest absence of Michigan football in our lifetimes is over! Quemar Los Barcos! For my mental health, I'm approaching this game like the Spring Game we never had: Let's see what we have here. Because we really don't know for sure. C'mon Speed in Space.
Also in the evening, Cincinnati at SMU is a legit game. South Carolina at LSU could take the last shine off the "genius" of Coach O. Turns out Joe Burrow could make anybody look like a genius.

? Go Blue!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:25 PM ^
Thanks for providing the fancy schmancy!
October 24th, 2020 at 11:14 AM ^
i don't know about you guys, but i'm a rutgers fan today.
go axe-spray knights!
October 24th, 2020 at 11:24 AM ^
Right there with you XM!! Hope you had a great parents night.
Go axe-spray knights!!
GO BLUE ???
October 24th, 2020 at 11:26 AM ^
I took Rutgers and the points to taunt my MSU buddy into doubling down on the bet. He declined.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:24 PM ^
Xtra,
Right there with you. I wasn't sure if it was a rivalry game - thanks for posting the trophy to remind me.
October 24th, 2020 at 1:43 PM ^
Preliminary results are in, AXE® Red Formula>>>>AXE green
October 24th, 2020 at 2:42 PM ^
It’s like those old time bud v. Bud light ‘bowls’ they had during super bowl commercials
October 24th, 2020 at 11:18 AM ^
That's a lot of games that didn't get cancelled.
October 24th, 2020 at 11:30 AM ^
Why even say this? -1 for taunting.
October 24th, 2020 at 11:42 AM ^
Just asking for civility. Your post seemed to be trying to stir up trouble. It's game day. Let's just try to enjoy it without any of this stuff.
October 24th, 2020 at 11:52 AM ^
You're not wrong
October 24th, 2020 at 12:40 PM ^
Way to jinx it
October 24th, 2020 at 11:26 AM ^
Good slate of games.
Some solid upsets are really possible today: I think Schiano is a much better coach than Tucker and the MSU roster is awful - Sparty should be concerned. PSU is over rated, but Indy will need some turnovers to win. Norte Dame actually plays a road game and I think Pitt wins. Auburn is shaky and Kiffin will dial up some O today.
October 24th, 2020 at 11:45 AM ^
I've got some leaves to mow. I'm firing up the mower at exactly noon to piss off the Buckeye fan across the street. See you dudes later on. Go Blue.
October 24th, 2020 at 11:50 AM ^
I see SMU bringing Cincinnati back down to earth today (at SMU)
October 24th, 2020 at 12:02 PM ^
Just overheard in our house:
K1: "We would only root for Ohio State if they were playing against the demonic realm."
K2: "No we wouldn't. That'd just be an intrasquad scrimmage."
October 24th, 2020 at 12:45 PM ^
Worthy of a plaque. That is all-world.
October 24th, 2020 at 1:05 PM ^
As Churchill said: "If Ohio State invaded Hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the Devil in the House of Commons."
October 24th, 2020 at 12:03 PM ^
I would advise people focus more on MSU than OSU at noon. Because once the Bucks go up four touchdowns in the first quarter, people here are going to be more suicidal than usual.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:05 PM ^
McCaffrey's 0-2 in QB battles this offseason...
October 24th, 2020 at 12:09 PM ^
Looked like his oldest brother there for a minute though!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:08 PM ^
The Spartan defense looked to be in desperate need of a supervisor on that first drive.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:09 PM ^
Rutger looks... dare I say it... Competent!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:09 PM ^
Um, that was really easy. Neb 7 - OSU 0.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:09 PM ^
Nebraska and Rutgers easily march down the field to take early 7-0 leads.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:10 PM ^
So delicious. I know it's early.
But still
So delicious
October 24th, 2020 at 12:11 PM ^
That was nice but it was also smoke and mirrors. OSU will still win easily...unfortunately.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:11 PM ^
I know OSU is still going to run away with this game but still, that was fun to watch Nebraska just sucker punch OSU’s defense in the face. Even if just for one drive.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:14 PM ^
LOL Sparty!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:14 PM ^
Nice turnover. Run up the score, Rutgers!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:20 PM ^
Another turnover!!!!!! 1st and goal Rutgers from the 1 yard line.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:22 PM ^
Rutgers and Michigan State - 2 really bad teams.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:24 PM ^
Indeed. Rutgers still looks bad. MSU looks abysmal so far.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:24 PM ^
Its early, but Rutgers looks far more competent than they have in recent years
October 24th, 2020 at 12:21 PM ^
Lol sparty
October 24th, 2020 at 12:24 PM ^
Ruggers 14 - Spartoons 0.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:25 PM ^
14-0 RUTGERS!!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:25 PM ^
Sparty NO!
After a classic Sparty No fumble to set Rutgers up on the 1 yard line, the Sparty defense holds...until an MSU DB decides to tackle an RU receiver on what would have been barely a catchable pass. Rutgers up 14-0.
Rutgers is still bad. It took them 5 plays to gain 1 yard. But...Sparty No!
October 24th, 2020 at 12:26 PM ^
Ladies and gentlemen, your Michigan State Spartans.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:30 PM ^
SPARTY STONEWALLED ON 3rd and 1 LOL
edit: STONEWALLED AGAIN ON 4th. TURNOVER ON DOWNS LMAO SPARTY
October 24th, 2020 at 12:31 PM ^
MSU went for it on 4th and 3. Gained 1 yard. Rutgers with a short field again...
October 24th, 2020 at 12:31 PM ^
Holy crap. MSU’s offense. Woof!!!
Please play like this next week.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:44 PM ^
Don’t expect much improvement from MSU. Tucker has no resume as a HC and a tough task in year 1 - win with a crapola roster. They lack team speed, playmakers and depth.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:31 PM ^
I know it's soooooo early, but OSU not passing the Bama/Clemson level elite eyeball test.
They don't look quite as dominant up front on either side of the ball. That said, I'm sure they put up 60 on us in the game.
October 24th, 2020 at 12:33 PM ^
You spoke too soon
October 24th, 2020 at 12:35 PM ^
You were saying?
October 24th, 2020 at 12:37 PM ^
They look like a great team. They looked like an NFL-lite team last year.
Bama and Clemson look ridiculous this year.
We shall see.
