K-State @ OK State right now on ESPN. Our old friend Alan Bowman looked pretty good on the opening drive. 6/10 for 52 yards. OK State up 7-0 early.

And for all of the sickos:

Nebraska @ Illinois 7:00 central time on FS1

I really can’t wait for MACtion to begin on … October 31. That is just so so so fitting.

The Pac 12 teams joining is really doom for the B1G West. They won't be able to win their 8 ish games a year by avoiding UM/OSU/PSU anymore. They'll most likely lose all their high end match ups and drop one or two random games against their normal B1G west foes. 

I think schools like Minnesota and Iowa can kiss those 8/9 wins a year goodbye. Illinois will probably struggle to get 5 or 6 unless they're perfect against the middling/low end teams.

How does Illinois only have one timeout left? Jeez they’re incompetent. So even if they score they’ll need to recover an onside kick.

PSU beat Illinois on the road by 17 points.

Nebraska beat Illinois on the road by 13 points.

PSU beat Illinois by only 4 more points than Nebraska did which should mean they are only a single score better than Nebraska.

Michigan beat Nebraska on the road by 38 points.

Therefore; Michigan should be better than PSU by 34 points when they play.

 

I know pregame numbers don't determine the actual outcome of a game, especially when the numbers are based off of a couple of common denominators put together, but it gives great confidence that Michigan should beat PSU somewhat comfortably (hopefully).  I know, one game at a time and focus on the next one, though.
