I would also be curious to see what their rankings would have looked like without the other polls to lean on.

Also if we win out and Mich st wins out you will have 2 top 10 teams in the B1G CCG. Winner is in the playoffs period

This is what we need. Both team win out and we win in the championship.

It definitely explains how our Oline went from pretty good to God Awful, even if they are a really good Defense. I guess Kudos to them for doing their homework. But, whats more alarming to me more than the fact that we weren't focused enough to get past it, was the fact the coaching staff didn't catch on to this before the fourth or even half way through the third quarter. Attention to detail has to be better throughout the whole team including the coaches.

I agree the later is more concerning. A few have said if you're not cheating you're not trying, and I think if defensive players are stealing signals, making noises on the line, clapping, etc, the coaches need to adjust accordingly.

I may get killed for this - but I don't see this as any different than a hard count (rule or not). If this is recognized during the game it shouldn't take almost three full quarters to make adjustments.

I think the close score is more to the inability of MSU to close a game.

Wtf Cotton?

This will be on C'mon man.

Iowa has a chance against ISU

Not shaping up to well for Minn either

Oh to be in the mind of Bo Pelini (says the announcer as Bo encourages his QB by patting him on the head).

Wow

I watched the Toney Couture fight - everyone said it proved MMA is superior. To me it proved couture is better at his craft than Toney. If MMA has just box what happens - lights out. These are two separate disciplines, Rousey looking for attention.

 

If MMA had just boxing...itd be boxing. I don't understand what youre trying to say...?

 

Why would Couture stand and box with Toney knowing that is where he is strongest?

Sorry about the confusion. IMO the argument that because an MMA fighter beats a boxer in an MMA match, doesn't prove superiority between the two disciplines.

Early in the fight Couture did try to stand and exchange blows. He took a pretty good shot and took the fight to the mat.

The report is out and now it's pretty bad for Richie, John Jerry, and Mike Pouncey. Couldn't be a worse week for this to land with the Michael Sam story dying down.

I would expect the NCAA's comment to be: We expect our student athletes to handles criticism from our paying spectators with the utmost professionalism.

Along with the three game suspension, Mr. Smart will be required to do an hour long autograph signing before each game he is suspended. (As a thank you to our fans.)

I really can't stand this new conference. Oh yes I know there are so many great things about it and academics and such. But... no. College football was built around the concept of conferences as small groups of schools within a close geographic proximity that played each other every year.

 

Now we play Michigan, what, every five years? And we're somehow in the same conference with teams in New Jersey and Maryland? Just a short 18 hour drive to catch the game.

Close geographic proximity has not been a huge concern for over 20 years. And never was for the PAC or ACC. Oregon to Arizona and Boston to Florida. Even Lincoln to Texas, or Boulder to Texas was not exactly a short trip.

The length of the trip to Columbus is about the same as our longest trip in the Texas conference.

I agree it is worse and a fine and suspension is forthcoming. Does he have a history of this kind of outburst?

The big money donors are upset they were left out of the coaching selection. Red McCombs thinks Strong would be a good position coach or maybe cooridinator.

LOL - but maybe this new AD is what they needed.

I usually am one to laugh at all the comments about Ed Cunningham, but today I am on board with the majority of the posters, Ed's call of the game did not sound like this was a neutral broadcast. His call of the game seemed like he only found the GA media guide.

There has to be a reason that we continue get him for any ABC or ESPN game we have.

Here we go with the lack of motivation talk for GA.

I don't think you want to run up the middle................................well they ran a fly sweep and it froze the LB.

Everyone ,knows the backers first read is not A to Scrap it the motioning WR.

Enuwa out in the flat????????

One last jab on the catch from Ed - The excitement on the return by him was amazing.

Absolute shame his career ends like that. The most dominant champion of all time carted out on a stretcher. Dana White has got to be furious.

Dana is the one that put this rematch on the fast track. Silva said he was done and Dana said not so fast my friend.

Good for wiedman but man suck it couldn't have gone the distance. Probably the end of Silva.

Wouldn't have happened locally if we went.

No Nike tonight for Silva.
