MSU Minny looks like first one to 50 wins. horrible defense on both sides.

It's usually like that for you because the 3:30 B10 game is usually not to >50% of the country on ABC. I usually get the 3:30 B10 game on the ESPN/2 reverse mirror in HD because of that.

The USC game is to >50% of the country, but for some reason, they are airing the Texas game here on ABC, so I'm stuck with USC in SD.

This is my first time really watching Oregon this year. That James kid is great. Very impressive offense.

[MrX]

I watched their game against Boise and they looked nothing like they do now. They looked like shit that game.

[MrX]

No dancing on the sidelines tonight for Pete and his staff

[Red Dog]

Speaking of Boise, party there tonight. Great result for them (and TCU). Unfortunately, it looks like Texas ain't going to lose the rest of the way.

[MrX]

@ Barkley crying for penalties. Guess he's not going to quiet Autzen like he said he would

Just retarded plays going on out there. Neither team should even bother putting out a defense.

USC is getting drilled so bad that they might, might, just maybe, fall to #6

On one of the IU boards they're talking about leaving the Big 10 for the Big East

Hahaaaaaaaaahaahaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..............

Yeah, that's why NONE OF THOSE CALLS had any impact on the actual game...

you sure you weren't on a Penn St. board . That's like a stickied topic at BWI

[brizz]

MSU sucked hard tonight, but again got ass raped by horrible reviews and bad calls. turned an obvious fumble into an incomplete pass and then fucked them with other bullshit after that. It's gotten to the point where i'm ready to just quit watching college football the officiating is so completely incompetent. I have a hard time believing this many adults can be this stupid, so I can only conclude Dick Bavetta is secretly behind it all in one giant cabal of corruption.

It's awful. just awful...and it's ruining the greatest sport in America.

If that was IU getting those calls the game tape would have been your own personal Zapruder film.

[Daryl]

At least we won't have to hear USC whine about having to go to the Rose Bowl again

I saw Texas Tech, Gamecocks, Penn State and a some other teams who've been embarrassed by Iowa over the last decade...not the most unbiased of bunches. Only team that didn't have a dog in the fight was Texas, from those I saw, who actually beat us a few years back. Barely.

Turns out the game wasn't even close. TD taken away, they score a TD next play. Okay, the second one that gets taken away where they miss a chippie 3 points afterwards? Okay, I'll give them 7. You wanna argue a "stolen" 1st down will score? Another 7. They still lose by more than a field goal. They could have won this game with five interceptions, but they didn't...you can blame the refs or you can blame the fact they couldn't convert turnovers into points for shit. Iowa did.

If we're going to talk about saving up film for when a team gets SCREWED and actually had the POSSIBILITY of winning a game, I give you this:



Our one loss of four bowl games with the 'great' SEC since 2000. So, yes, my Zapruder film.

[Blu Man]

Oregon has a damn good team this year.

Yes the officials. Hey that's a great excuse to have when you are so inept you let a team you lead by 24-7 come back on you with 3 touchdowns and beat you by 18 points. Not to mention you let a team do that to you the 3rd game in a row. I guess the officials where in the pocket of all the other teams indiana blew leads too as well. But that's ok. It's awesome when "insert favorite team here" wins by calls that have gone your way everything is awesome but when it's not "you're team" then it's a screw job by the officials. It's cool. See you at the champs sports bowl.

Are you aware that a team's strategy and play calling changes when they're up or down three possessions instead of two in the 4thQ? I'm not saying IU would not have blown it still, but the idea that it made no difference is bullshit.

Iowa won by more than 7 so no it didn't make a difference. Talk all the bullshit you want about shifting momentum. Indiana blew it. Plain and simple.

[DarkestPhoenix]

Are you aware that when you have two short passes and the coverage is totally blown so badly that your players can run all the way across the field and score the TD that you're not calling crazy plays, but just playing what I consider to be fairly conservative football? If you can't stop that, I'd hate to see what happens when the opponent gets creative!

It did NOT make a difference, and if you honestly think that no calls were made against Iowa or that FAILING MISERABLY to convert turnovers wasn't the deciding factor in this game, then go on hatin'.

Fuck that, they're making history as the first participants of the Little Caesar's Pizza Bowl!!!



(the artist formerly known as the Motor Bowl)

[DarkestPhoenix]

Man, I'm glad USC lost...tired of hearing them still being talked about for the NCG.

I know others are hating on Iowa for the NCG, too.....I don't care. I would be happy winning out and playing in the Rose Bowl. The more BCS controversy, the better, in my opinion, so we can toss this piece of shit system that promised us a clear winner every year for the only system that works: A playoff.

No, somehow they will be #5; heck, some might look at the Iowa win and say "I bet USC would have thrown less picks" and rank them #4. And then the ghost of John McKay will be sedated, and he will rise only to smite those whom do not have red and yellow painted on the frame of their door.
