This is a good weekend to do chores for the wife so she will be happy.

I am watching one of my friends kids this Friday and Saturday, even offered to mow his lawn and dust his attic, considering Ohio State is playing FAMU.

worry free weekend

I have a feeling Michigan State will defeat Notre Dame...and I believe it will happen due to the help of some big plays by the Spartan defense.

Ohio State is playing FAMU. worry free weekend

Big Blow said the same thing last weekend about the Zips.



but then again, they do that kind of thing pretty regularly, don't they?

 

[HawkeyesRuleURFace]

No week is a worry free week in Iowa City...hell we we're 8-0 playing the scrub of all scrubs (Indiana) in Iowa City 10/31/10 and scored 28 points in the 4th quarter to win

There was concern back in 2008 that the OSU-Mich game was gonna have to be cancelled, since Michigan couldn't get past Toledo.

NW traditionally gives us fits. Or maybe a more apt analogy would be raging hot hemorrhoids.

I'm really anxious to see how NW rebounds after a tough loss to the Buckeyes. NW IMO is heading in the right direction. What's not to love about what Fitzgerald has done to this program? I think you guys win in a tough battle, but this should be a fun game to watch. Good luck Fork and to your Badgers.

agree 1000%.
What Fitzgerald has done is nothing short of miraculous - the guy and his program deserve all the good ink they've been given. And, if Kevin Wilson's Hoosiers beat Pat Narduzzi's #1 Spartan D this weekend, he deserves Fitzgerald-type recognition as well.

 

[ForkEmBucky]

They're always able to put together good gameplans on short notice. I guess that's one benefit of having the strictest academic requirements in major college football.

B1GCG OSU vs MSU

That's my homer prediction. Sparty will find it's offense and improve every game from here on out. MSU will slither by ILL, pound MICH, squeak past NEB in the best regular season game of the year then cruise to the CG...where they will stun the nation and Buckeyes everywhere.

Who you got?

 

[Red_Alert]

Mich St will match up better with Ohio St than Nebraska will.

I could see Nebraska dropping a couple of their remaining games. Pelini teams have never finished strong. I don't know why this year would be any different.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Wait...so Michigan is going to lose 4 outta 5 games??

I'm guessing the only team they beat is Iowa

I think they'll lose 2 of their last 5.

Nebraska not one of them. They'll return the offense they found yesterday against Nebraska.

Yeah, I can't see em losing more than 2. I think they can beat, MSU, Iowa and NW. Nebraska and OSU will be tough.

dunno...Not if Iowa plays like they did in Columbus yesterday.
The skunkbears are the most over-rated teams in the country...they'll have trouble beating NW, even if Colter is still sidelined (if Colter plays, MICH might easily go 0-5...I was just feeling magnanimous.)

Shit I hope they go 0-5. ONLY downside is, that kills tOSU in the BCS and NC hopes.
