VA Husker Fan Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Ohio State made a bit of a statement beating a bad team, but just destroying them. Kind of negated bythe team that beat them fairly easily last weekend losing to an AAC team today. Quote Link to comment
jaws Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 This conference is complete crap. Really starting to wish we never would have left the Big 12. That conference forced us to adapt and adjust or else we would get destroyed. The B1G is crappy enough that we could be 6-6 good in the big 12 but finish 9-3 or 10-2 simply by playing a completely inferior schedule of B1G schools. If we don't finish 11-1 or 12-0 then we Need new cathletes as well If that is true, then Nebraska should be racking up B1G championships. 1 Quote Link to comment
strigori Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 All the hand wringing over Rutgers, and they look like one of the more solid teams in the B1G this year. 1 Quote Link to comment

sd'sker Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 this conference needs better coaches because it is not going to get the best athletes. Quote Link to comment
irafreak Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Apparently this conference needs to sell it's soul to ESPN so we can get the positive publicity because all I ever hear is how bad the B1G is compared to everyone else. I mean the narrative this year is how bad the big is 2 weeks (started hearing it in week 2) into the season and how the SEC is number 1 and PAC is unquestionable #2. Really? After Oregon who in that conference is so far superior to the other teams in the Big12/ACC/B1G? 1 Quote Link to comment
Abdullah the Butcher Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Well the Big Ten is 1-10 this season against the power 5 + ND so there's that, plus three losses against MAC teams. Quote Link to comment

Maybe other conferences have decent claims as to being better than others, but this conference is pure trash. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 We deserve the negative publicity, at least this year. We're almost through our non-conference schedule and we've lost all of the important games. The only way to redeem this year is to do really well in the bowl games. Quote Link to comment
nic Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 The Big Ten needs its major teams to step up. Yes I am looking at you Nebraska, Michigan, PSU. NU has had a minimum of 4 losses per season for what, a decade now. That streak predates the Big Ten. Maybe the Big Ten is the conference where former great programs go out to pasture. We should pick up Texas next. They seem to be headed the same direction despite being in the hotbed of football talent. I will give PSU a bit of pass given their circumstances. Franklin did pretty well in the mighty SEC with 3* talent. I suspect PSU will be back soon. Is Michigan suffering from two bad coaching decisions? I don't know. They might end up with another coaching change in the near future. What is holding NU back? Don't know. NU didn't exactly come into the Big Ten and overwhelm everyone. Not even Iowa or Northwestern. Its been a bad year so far and now we will have to wait until the bowl season to try and salvage something. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Honestly unless its Undefeated Nebraska vs Undefeated Penn State in the title game, there is 0 chance the Big Ten sends its champ to the playoff. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirts007 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Honestly unless its Undefeated Nebraska vs Undefeated Penn State in the title game, there is 0 chance the Big Ten sends its champ to the playoff. Or if there is an undefeated Nebraska or Penn state vs anybody in the B1G championship and they finish undefeated. Let's be real there will not be 4 undefeated teams from the other power conferences. It appears that way every single year and most of the time the national championship includes a 1 loss team. An undefeated team would sneak into the playoff. Especially if it was Nebraska because we have $$$ written all over us. Granted I think we can all agree the chance of that is slim to none, but the brand name of Nebraska wouldn't get the boot. 1 Quote Link to comment
