the big ten sucks

[baphamet]

so far its not looking good for this conference as a whole. Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin, Penn St. are you kidding me? (okay i guess i understand Penn St. sucking)

even Michigan had to hold on to beat freaking air force, despite Robinson playing out of his mind. Ohio St looks pretty good but they cant even win the conference this year, what does that leave? Michigan St? Minnesota?

at this point the conference as a whole gets a collective......

[theMileHighGuy]

Yeah, Penn St. has been arduous to watch so far in the new era. Still the last game though, 4 missed FGs and a blocked extra point. Should have been an easy win.

Not looking good for the Big 10 at all.

Michigan State win that Conference. Ohio State will probably beat them when they play, but since they can't win the conference in which should be Mich St. only loss, it wont even effect them at all. It will be as if Mich St never even lost a game. Mich St will punish Michigan. Michigan is just straight up trash. Got punished by Bama last week and this week they struggle VS Air Force, with thier 260-270 lb lineman on both sides of the ball lol. Pathetic. I havent been all that impressed with So. Cal either so far. Oregon will take the Pac-12, then as far as week 2 observations, so far its pretty clear that its Bama, LSU, and Fla St, and then the rest of the country TBH.

Eh, I wouldn't say that they suck.... I'd just say they are mediocre.
Upsets happen, you win some and you lose some. Wisconsin can easily finish the season with 1 or 2 losses, Nebraska could end it with 2-3 losses.

I mean it really depends on what you expected and what you didn't expect. If you expected Michigan to have a close game vs Bama, then you're a idiot. Of course I wanted Michigan to win and I expected them to not get manhandled.

Michigan defensive line is missing all of it's best players. Last seasons DL starters are now in the NFL.
Michigan has never played against the triple option defense. That's why it was so hard for them to handle Air Force, Michigan can't defend the triple option, plus the defense has issues stopping the run anyways. So putting those to together get a a very close Air Force vs Michigan game.

If college football was MMA, Penn St. is taking a lot of punches to the gut. Another depressing loss and it'll be a knockout punch.

If Michigan St. can run the ball vs every team they play, they wont lose at all this year.

I expect and think that Michigan St., Wisconsin, and maybe Michigan if the defense can learn to defend the run...will get a BCS bowl game.

Yea Iowa looked terrible yesterday. Thought for sure they Hawkeyes would show up with their A game for their biggest game of the year, guess I was wrong. (Disclaimer: I'm a Hawkeye fan)

Michigan, will not get a BCS bowl game. that means they will have to be at least a top 10 team, in which two teams usually get left off in the top 10, which they will not finish in the top 10 anyway. I dont see Wisconsin being a BCS Bowl gamer either. there are 4 BCS bowl games if im correct and remember correctly, it will not Include Michigan or Wisconsin. Both teams will lose 2 more times at least (to Mich. St and Ohio St.)

the big 10 champion gets an automatic BCS bowl bid.

i know and it wont be wisconsin, or michigan. it will be mich. st. ohio state cant win it.

It's looking like it's going to be a long season for the Badgers.

I'm not sure who I miss more, Russel Wilson or Offensive coordinator Paul Chryst.

Under Chryst, Montee Ball was a Heisman finalist. Under Matt Canada, he'll be lucky to make the Big Ten second team. You have an All-American RB and you move him out of the backfield to WR on several plays and only give him 15 carries.

And I haven't seen a QB throw the ball behind as many recievers as Danny O'Brien did against Oregon St.

I thought Michigan St. looked pretty good.

Big 10 sucks?

Water is also wet.


Big 10 has been a pretty overrated conference for quite some time.

[DenverBlood]

And the Big 10 just lost their last chance of a team eligible for the National title. Not that anyone was holding their breath with Michigan st anyway.

Huskers > Badgers
