Late Games Second Half Thread

I know the afternoon games looked way better than the night games, but did it have to be this big of a drop off? I feel like I’ve taken sleeping pills. Zzzz

How does it work that we play tO$U to an awesome tight finish, and we set football back a hundred years, but if Texas and Texas Tech do it, its a revolutionary defensive struggle that fast forwards football a hundred years?

A confession.

I actually picked Toledo to beat Ohio State in the Big Ten Bloggers pick ’em this week. Straight up. I lost.

So I missed most of the games today. Did we suck?

My only present consolation is NU lost to VTech. I hate NU since Osborne sold his soul to Satan. I didn’t watch a second of Purdue, jNW, or MSU, but holy hell. Having said that, Iowa is currently on a 1 year streak of not losing to teams they shouldn’t (see Pitt, IL, 2008).

Puts up big points by throwing constantly, and their tackling style involves going for the strip on every play.
