THE BIG 10 THREAD

[NU_FTW]

Like the fans who argue about 20 years ago and two teams that never faced each other? Now THAT is idiotic. At least we are talking about today.

Based on that, Nebraska is the 13th best defense in the B1G. Buttgers is 14th.

Why would it bother UM fans? We weren't the one gifted half a title because our coach was retiring

Point proven ^

 

[Across The Field]

Penn State has played 3 shit teams and Iowa. There is no way anyone can call them the best defense. Wisconsin has a better case than them.

LOL based on what?? Pitt is a better team than anyone Wisconsin has faced. They have made the best case, bar none.

 

[Across The Field]

The 93rd ranked offense is the best PSU has faced. The 3 others are in the 100's. If UM has faced shitty offenses, what has PSU faced?

PSU has also pitched shutouts in half of their games. michigan, however, hasn't held anyone under double digits.

If we're talking about defense, Michigan held Florida to 3 points. Penalizing Michigan's defense because their offense threw 2 pick 6's is ridiculously dumb.

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

Point proven ^

I couldn't care less. As soon as Osborne announced he was retiring, the conversations started about a split championship.
So it didn't surprise me in the least.

Not sure what point was proven, but ok.

One poll voted Michigan #1.

All other polls voted Nebraska #1.

Hmmm, one team received a gift alright.

Tennessee State held Georgia State to a field goal, until a garbage TD at the end of the game and Akron put up 14 points against Iowa State and Troy.

I applaud the shut outs, but these are teams they shouldn't even be playing.

It was a very nice going away present. I think Nebraska football took it very literal, as only Tom Osborne was going away. The football program left with him.
