The B1G is close to shatting the bed. The commissioner
didn't look happy at the Michigan game. Iowa & PSU
look like feces today. Need OSU to win Rose. Oh, Iowa
just scored for10-13. UK still up.

Michigan/Harbaugh returned to form (although, to be fair, Georgia may indeed be the best team in the country)...Franklin is someone who has done less with more than almost anybody else, as, he has underachieved there for sure...I think Purdue fans as much as anyone realizes Iowa is not what the number next to their name says.

I think Michigan being exposed as they were only put on display that the B1G as a whole was not great this year...some good teams...competitive within conference certainly...but, on a national scale...the B1G is still trailing the SEC...which is why Purdue's win was even more impressive.
 
PSU should NEVER have been chosen for a New Years Day bowl. This nonsense of travelling fan bases is bullshit. Purdue and Tennessee fans filled the stadium. Yes, I know it was virtually a home game for UT.

At some point, entertaining games are valuable. And Penn St brought no entertainment on New Years Day.
 
TMHR making a case - has grabbed the lead over the Wildcats in the 4th.

Btw, anybody see Penn State's first FG attempt today from about 50 yds? Ended up closer to the pylon than the upright I think.
I did, but they will be fine at kicker the next 4 yrs, they got the #1 h.s. kicker Sander Sahaydak from out here in Bethlehem, Pa
 
Top of the SEC is better than top of BIG, middle is pretty even I suppose. PSU is strictly name recognition...they pretty much stink and I'll be pissed anytime we don't beat their assess.

Full squads at the end of the season, we'd have kicked UK's butts no problem. Haven't watched Arkansas until a little bit today, but they certainly don't look scary.

we'll find out first game next year
 
it's a catch 22 w/ their O, they are a ground and pound team and take advantage of the TO's , but it's a struggle to get a talented QB for such a style of O.
Ground and pound teams don't win championships anymore. Got to be dynamic in the passing game. And that's what happened with Michigan. Harbaugh won't be able to adjust to that.
 
Besides Iowa's horrible tackling at the game end. I really didn't like not going for it on that extremely short 4th down. They were stopped on the other one by their fumbled hike, not by the defense.

usually they do QB sneak or give to #38
 
Rutgers shouldn’t count
Iowa kept it close
Penn state had no business playing in their game. If big ten is upset its their own fault on that one.
Georgia might be best team in country.
Hope Ohio state keeps it close

agree
 
Dang - what's the over on the Rose Bowl? 28-14 with 8 minutes left in the half - Ohio State's weakness on defense getting exploited so far, along with a KO return TD for the Utes. Lot of time left, but it isn't looking so good for the Big Ten today.

Edit - Utah getting 4pts (over/under 64)

PSU stunk the place up.
