Really don't know who to root for in the Penn State-OSU game...for love of god I don't want to see OSU win another big ten title. But Penn State is Penn State. And go wildcats!

the Big Ten officiating is always going to screw the team that the big boss feels isn't the best chance for a national title. eg Michigan against Ohio State last year.

run the ball down their throat. This is shocking - but I bet this game gets close and OSU might even win yet. The PSU hot streak just has to run into a cold spell at some point.

So did Denard Robinson.  Its a great call in the college game.  A running QB on 3rd and short is invaluable.  

 

Think about it.  Once the ball is snapped, the first person who can spot a hole in the line has the advantage of getting to that hole first.  Who better than the QB for such a role, especially if that QB has jets.

Trace McSorley should throw up a Hail Mary pass when shopping for stock options - he's literally incapable of doing anything other than the miraculous when throwing moonshots.

So if PSU defeats Ohio State at Ohio State by a wider margin than PSU defeated Michigan at PSU, does that mean Michigan is better than Ohio State?

 

Ohio State would have two losses.  Michigan has two losses.  Ohio State lost at home to Oklahoma.  Michigan lost at home to MSU.

 

One could make the argument that UM > OSU, if OSU loses badly at home to PSU.

I give a Dantonio a lot of credit for finding ways to eek out the ugly wins, but this team will get crushed by any team with a good passing game. Willekes should not be on the field in the 1st half of a B1G game and their safeties are awful, yet they find a way to keep opponents out of the end zone.

Why is it so hard to find competent announcers?  The OSU-PSU guy just talked about the line mashing PSU to the left.  The D line was slanting left!

It hurts me that Brandon Wimbush is the QB for Notre Dame. I want him ball every game, but I hate seeing ND be good. They're leading a pretty good NC State team right now.

Interesting helmet design from Northwestern - Carmen Miranda? Thorson doesn't look bad running that offense. It's too bad we had to play State in a wind game (and O'Korn, o'course), they have vulnerabilities.
