What else is new? Ever since UF beat tOSU in 2007, it's been humiliation year in and year out for the the B1G, or so it seems. There are still a lot of excellent players coming out of the B1G and lots of great football, but for one reason or the other, they have usually failed out-of-conference. I do expect Urban Meyer to continue building a powerhouse, and I think MSU is in a good place.

In reality, there is very little difference between the top half of each of the power 5 conferences most years.

Meh the B1G has sucked since Michigan fell of the face of the earth so this isn't surprising.

The only way the loss to the domers will be humiliating is if Hoke doesn't get fired within the next 24 hours. He's our Charlie Weiss.

They were winning more than 1/2 way through the 3rd quarter were they not?

Because of 24 points in the 2nd quarter. They did nothing in the 1st, 3rd, or 4th quarters.

Does that make Rich Rod your Ty Willingham?

So they were winning 1/2 way into the 3rd quarter...to me that means they were doing alright for 2.5 quarters.

Whatever you need to tell yourself. But a team that gets up and then plays like shit to the point they cough up a lead that quickly, is not playing well.


I understand the difficulty knowing what GOOD football looks like, Browns fan

Yeah, this whole thing started because Auburn got snubbed out of the 2005 BCS title game. After that, the SEC went on a full blown media blitz to make sure their conference winner made the National Title Game. It'll be interesting to see what happens this year. All the power conferences will be campaigning hard for sure. B1G is gonna have a tough sell. I think the SEC, Big 12 and Pac 12 will all have a team in the playoff. If Florida State goes undefeated, then they're in for sure, and I think the B1G is locked out of the playoff. If Florida State is not undefeated, then I think it becomes a toss-up between a second SEC team, FSU and the B1G winner (assuming tOSU can remain undefeated, or if it is MSU, that they win the rest of their games).

Lost in the high profile blowouts is that Iowa needed a fucking miracle to win. They had to score 14 points in the last 3 minutes or something.

I prefer to look at it as at least Iowa was talented enough to score 2 TDs and hold their opponent to a 3 and out in the final 4 minutes.

Yes, as a fan of the Cowboys I have seen plenty of good football. I vividly remember 3 SB's. :suds:

The Big 10 is in trouble, they aren't going to get a team in this playoff because Ohio State won't go undefeated and Michigan State (the best team in the conference) just got thumped by Oregon.
