The fans in Lincoln have to be apoplectic right now.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:34 PM ^
I will be surprised if Bo is there in two years.

I bet the Sparty D scores the most points in this game.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:34 PM ^
That was a big win for them.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:49 PM ^
another data point in why we need to bring back the posbang
October 26th, 2013 at 4:05 PM ^
Quite.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:35 PM ^
Minnesota just hooked us up -- thank you, Gophers!
October 26th, 2013 at 3:43 PM ^
October 26th, 2013 at 3:47 PM ^
Yes and yes. Minny ran the ball ALL DAY, and it was probably one of the best coached games I've seen. Perfect timing on going for it on fourth down, passing for long gains when unexpected, etc etc. Really nice game all around by Minny.

It would be simply amazing if State can manage to lose to Illinois. With Northwestern and Nebraska notching losses for the day, that helps us considerably.
Go Illini! Go PSU!
October 26th, 2013 at 3:41 PM ^
Northwestern losing was pretty meaningless considering they were 0-3 already. An Iowa loss to give them 3 may have actually been better.
October 26th, 2013 at 4:06 PM ^
True, but any loss to our divisional opponents only helps us, even if marginally.
October 26th, 2013 at 4:18 PM ^
I think you missed his point. Iowa is also a divisional opponent, and they have only two league losses to NW's four.

The 3:30 slot is especially bad today
October 26th, 2013 at 3:38 PM ^
Hoping for a bunch of sparty no today
October 26th, 2013 at 3:47 PM ^
the Spartans made after the ND game that the refs haven't been calling so many infractions against them; we'll see how that goes today...
October 26th, 2013 at 3:52 PM ^
I didnt watch the Purdue game ...because I like my eyes. But in the other MSU games since ND I think Ive only seen a flagrant Max Bullough PI and none on the CBs. Hollis obviously had a "constructive" talk with Delaney.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:41 PM ^
Good week to have a bye in the Legends division. Go Illini!
October 26th, 2013 at 3:49 PM ^
the NW Iowa game as well as the Minnesota Nebraska game; good fun fall football!
October 26th, 2013 at 3:42 PM ^
21-13

Last time before today was 1960.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:54 PM ^
is actually 30-22 against the Huskers. Though, their last win in the series was back in 1960
October 26th, 2013 at 3:45 PM ^
weak call, so weak
October 26th, 2013 at 3:46 PM ^
Impressive drive for FSU. They may well be one of the top 2 teams in the country, but the rest of that conference is draggin them down to the point where Bama or Oregon will have to lose for them to get a shot. The fact that Florida sucks this year hurts them as well.
October 26th, 2013 at 4:43 PM ^
Bold assertion given that FSU is #2 in the BCS
October 26th, 2013 at 4:54 PM ^
October 26th, 2013 at 3:48 PM ^
3-0? Run the clock out Illinois. You win.

Lets see if the Illini D can do anything....
October 26th, 2013 at 3:50 PM ^
Sparty with big advantage with this wind -ILL whole offense is pass oriented. Also it looks like refs will be swallowing whistles today so "60 minutes of unnecessary pass interference" will be in full effect.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:53 PM ^
all of the kickoffs in the Ill-MSU game going like 35 yards?
October 26th, 2013 at 3:53 PM ^
Been to Illinois Memorial Stadium a couple times, it gets VERY windy there.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:54 PM ^
It looks like they are playing a HS team
October 26th, 2013 at 3:57 PM ^
Sparty no!
October 26th, 2013 at 3:59 PM ^
October 26th, 2013 at 3:58 PM ^
Connor Cook arm punt. Beautiful.
October 26th, 2013 at 3:58 PM ^
I love how indignant he looks whenever a foul is called against the Spartin's
