Great pro-Wisconsin sign: "The power of Chrystal compels you!!!"

Chryst.
I like the Nuns in red habits and W's on their collars.
October 15th, 2016 at 1:07 PM ^
I like the high incidence of bad puns in their signs. However, my two favorites are "Brutus killed Caesar" and "Urban Meyer Doesn't Spend Enough Time with His Family."
October 15th, 2016 at 10:08 AM ^
Every OSU fan in that crowd just looks like white trash, except for the clown who wears that stupid cowboy outfit. What a disgusting fan base.

Epic. Our two main rivals play each other, sandwiched between our games with them. Delicious intrigue. Will
be a colossal struggle. (To see who gets a first down first, I mean.)
Does the transitive property apply to rivalries. Because Knight and Illini fans are ardent rivals of UM, are they therefore ardent rivals of each other? Or... are they like brahs in arms -- enemy of my enemy is my friend, kind of thinking? Will Rutgers players give the Illini players some key tips how not to lose by 79 pts, like Rutgers achieved last week?

B1G East vs B1G West showdown!

Do we root for the Badgers* with the hope that maybe MSU makes their game versus OSU their Super Bowl and pulls off the unthinkable (giving OSU 2 losses before we play them)?
Highly unlikely, of course.
*I'm not suggesting that by NOT rooting for the Badgers, you're rooting for OSU. You simply can choose not to give a damn. Don't ever let someone tell you there are only two options.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:30 AM ^
With Iowa and Michigan State going up in flames, I'd like to keep Ohio State clean to give Michigan more possibilities of going to the CFB Playoff SOS-wise.
My idea is that even if Michigan loses a close one to Ohio State, and Ohio State continues on undefeated, and if a ton of things go Michigans way in the PAC 12 and Big 12, maybe Michigan sneaks into the Playoff.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:31 AM ^
Certainly rooting for the Badgers but I don't think they stand a chance. I see a game similar to ours vs OSU last year, close for a while but a blowout at the end.
Rutgers Illinois on the other hand, that's one heck of a matchup! They should seriously be playing to not get demoted to the MAC. Come on up Central and Western.

In a top 10 matchup without an emotional attachment to the outcome. Will be interesting game regardless.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:21 AM ^
I'm uncomfortably intrigued by the Illinois-Rutgers game.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:27 AM ^
The NW/Sparty is more intriguing than people would have thought pre-season/beginning of season.
A day of college football and cooler fall temps... life seems good today
October 15th, 2016 at 11:07 AM ^
Both Rutgers-Illinois and Northwestern-Michigan State intrigue me for both gleeful and morbid football reasons, and then only because both of these games have a real potential to be phenomenally bad football if one or both teams is not exactly at their best, whatever that happens to mean in each case - I mean, we saw Rutgers give it their all, right?
October 15th, 2016 at 10:22 AM ^
And the SEC/ACC fellatio continues on gameday with their discussion about the best conference.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:27 AM ^
Unfortunately the B1G isn't proving them wrong any this year. So far there are only two good teams on each division imo.

Wake me when Nebraska beats anyone of note. They are top 10 by default. Wisconsin is a good team but I don't think they are a top 10 team.

Agree on both accounts...just in more words. Per the usual.

I'm a B1G homer
Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad
October 15th, 2016 at 10:45 AM ^
They should absolutely give the B1G more love.
That said, let's be honest...there are only 2 top 10 teams in the B1G and Wisconsin is looking like a fringe top 10 team.
The Bear made a good point about Ole Miss, Nebraska's best win is Oregon. Where would they be if they had to play Bama and FSU? If we're honest, they'd get smoked. They'd get smoked if they played Ole Miss.
IMO, based off of eye test...
The B1G has...
(2) top 5 type teams
(1) #10-#15 team
(1) #15-#18 team
...and if Iowa can get their shit together, I think they're a fringe Top 25 type team.

Sure, it's beyond that where the league is suffering. Without PSU, State and Iowa being tier 2 teams it diminishes the top 4

While Nebraska and Wisky shore up the usually weak B1G west.
October 15th, 2016 at 11:36 AM ^
Well, they do have 4 of the 5 ranked 2 loss teams. How long until a 3 loss SEC team is in the top ten?

Just bad television. No charisma and weirdly craning around in his chair. Did he win an office contest or something?

He was 3-0 last week...would've gotten paid if you put some money down.
That said, I don't bet and I can't stand when he talks...he serves to purpose.

Due respect to Rutgers, but that common opponent tells us nothing about Ohio State. I think Wisconsin will be a very interesting matchup.
I'm also very keen to see how far Indiana has come. It has 'trap game' written all over it for Michigan.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:45 AM ^
It looks like IU's D is much improved (from dreadful) but their O has taken a step back, especially on the ground. I just really struggle to see how they score more than 10-17 assuming our D stays healthy.

...against Wisconsin's defense.
I don't think you get any true indicator on the OSU defense from Wisconsin because the weather isn't going to be shit. We missed 3 FGs, let's say you make 2 and get a TD on the other drive. It's 27-7 and no one is talking about how Michigan's offense escaped the Badgers.
Also Michigan's offense will undoubtably be better versus by the time OSU rolls around. So I'm looking at the OSU offense versus the Badgers D, I'm hoping Wisconsin shuts them down and gives me a better feeling about our D reverse whatever that was last year.
October 15th, 2016 at 10:35 AM ^
I'm picking Northwestern, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Indiana, and NC state

...and for the weekly Corso having an episode on camera moment.
The guys do a great job of just helping him along and not drawing attention to it when he can't speak anything other than jibberish for about 5 seconds. It doesn't even look like he knows what's going on when it happens.
Keep doing your thing Lee.
*yes we know, Les Miles would be a great replacement

I hope they can still incorperate him to do picks and the headgear pick even if that's the only segment he does.

Sam Ponder is gorgeous, but she's always screaming.
I just now noticed that whenever she speaks I always turn my TV down. Calm down homegirl.

Or she's often standing in front of a loud wall of people and you tend to talk a bit louder so you can hear yourself.
