Here's a thought. Stop ass -raping the kids on ticket prices. At most schools, they've been skyrocketing and its been a growing trend for years. The gameday experience has been deterioraiting as the games are driven by TV broadcasting and TV revenue. The extra TV timeouts create too many lulls in the game. Games are more and more made for watching and less and less made for attending, unless you can afford it, which I'm guessing, most college kids can't.

I think your post is misdirected. Michigan St's product was quite good.

I do have to laugh at broncoshitty though for him blaming Nebraska fans for not filling Sparty stadium 750 miles away. :L

Then charge non-students and the working public more. Kids who already pay a ton in tuition shouldn't have to pay ridiculous ticket prices. They should be deeply, deeply discounted for students, if they want the student body to attend, which, by the way, has always what has made college football superior to the pro game in my opinion, the unbridled (and boozed up) enthusiasm of the students is as much a part of the scene and history and tradition as the product on the field.

Thought number two, stop with the shitty buy games. Who wants to pay those high prices to watch your team run over the DeVry Institute.

It was 40 degrees and rainin and going into the 4th quarter it was a blowout. Students got to get their predrinking on. Before going out to party a win over a ranked B1G opponent.

Nebraska who was undefeated and Mich St. who if I recall correctly won the rose bowl last year. Not a bad product at all.

Maybe with all those empty seats Hollis should come fill one up and enjoy the weather. Instead of crying on twitter. :pound:

Can I ask what Oklahoma State's sell out streak is? I don't know, that's why I ask.

Also, is Oklahoma St undefeated?

Yeah, and Saban tore into his students a few years ago (or last year) too if I recall correctly about this phenomenon. Of the many qualities these guys have, self-awareness isn't one of them.

I'll bet the kids started shitting their pants when they saw the field goal doink off the upright on TV at the party they left to go to.

Can we just admit that the Big Ten is not currently producing elite teams, and that there is no way in Hell they will make the playoffs this year?

Maybe next year? Absolutely...this season though? How did Ohio State lose to VT in Columbus? Michigan State won't make it without another loss, and Michigan won't take out the trash...

the Big Ten really needs a year where the flagships (OSU, Nebraska, UM, MSU, and maybe Iowa) keep being ranked and keep beating ranked teams...How long ago was it that it was OSU 1 Mich 2...or that undefeated streak Iowa went on...honesty, I kinda miss y'all
