I've never seen such BS in my life.

I’m a football rule novice, but unless the rules have changed, it was IU ball. I hope Iowa kills Forcier.

well now

we gotta hope they keep winning and then WE destroy focier and the rest of the scUM

We are not normal...WE are Legends...We are PENN STATE!

It does not say much for UM's defense though...

They’ve been squeaking them out against teams that aren’t that great. If IU can hang 33 on them, I have some hope.

OSU looking extra sharp...

not really. Should be an interesting game. Weather is lousy which I think will help Illini.

wow

I knew Mississippi State was holding their own on LSU, but I didn’t realize they were doing it while having turned the ball over 4 times.

OSU up on Illini

with a field goal after Bad Juice throws a pick in Buckeye territory

their only hope is running the ball.

The weather looks like crap and the bucks zone will pick him all day.

Does Bad Juice alternate weeks?

Because I’m making the trip to Champaign next weekend and do not want to see Good Juice

by cjapsu on Sep 26, 2009 3:51 PM EDT up reply actions  

if Lee and Bowman are healthy...

I don’t worry about Juice. I worry about the secondary keeping tabs on Benn. Despite the win last year, he had his way with our DBs.

Still, Cincinnati gets the “W”.

it is overrated

but it’s very unusual when a team wins with a difference this large, even though it has happened twice recently.

They way they decimated Rutgers in week 1..

MSU got a safety

and got the ball back with 51 seconds left, but went 4 straight plays for zero yards, and LSU is about to run out the clock.

I’m not happy, I picked the U. I also picked UNC, so my pick ’em is screwed this week.

Tech having their way running the ball on Miami.

Conditions are crappy, but UM looks suspect against the run, and their QB isn’t making much happen

you're not missing too much right now...

Tech is dominating on the ground. Tech giftwrapped a field goal (at least) on a bad punt snap but Harris got sacked so they had to punt it away.

Its all tech right now. Expect a defensive, ground game,

Radar over State College shows nothing but heavy rain.

I doubt the Whitehouse is going to look very imposing with all the gray-hairs wearing their blue ponchos.

I heard most places downtown

stockpiled clear and white ponchos. So we can only hope…
