That picture tells me USC fans are completely fair weather rather than anything else.

Did Akron just get cheated out of 7 seconds? Why didn't the clock reset to 0:22?

Why did they not put time back on the clock for the review?

And ignored a blatent hold on the final play. Big Ten always so overrated. Can't wait for the hype for OSU/Mich after that barn burner.

Can someone give a quick review of what happened at the end there - not able to see the game and ESPN gamecast sucks.

Awarded the first down, time runs off with four plays, whistle blows, reviwed, overturned, 3rd down, the time isn't put back on the clock. Akron calls a terrible toss play and has to settle for a pass on 4th down which doesnt connect

I'm actually surprised Michigan pulled that off. 1st and goal at the one felt like Akron was going to get the score. So many issues for this team right now. With Nebraska getting clocked, Big Ten has pretty much shot its credibility already. Time to watch some real football.

I was watching on a shitty stream so the quality wasn't the greatest but I thought I might have seen a pretty blatant defensive holding on that final play, too. But that may be my bias against Michigan showing.

No, I have zero opinion on Michigan. It was a hold.

Nah, it was holding. And a roughing on the QB (shot to head).

Even if OSU wins the Big Ten, they will have to do so undefeated to have any remote chance at a title game this year. I would easily still take a one loss SEC team over them and I'm sure others would as well.

If Arizona State takes care of business, the PAC-12 South might be the best division in the B1G

As a Miami Dolphins fan: I hope Texas A&M runs Alabama out of the building.

Nice drive by Alabama.

Now it's time to see if their defense can stop A&M?

You and me both.

Not sure Manziel is going to be able to get away doing things like that at the next level.

Manziel will have to learn to be much more disciplined and decisive in the pros if he wants to be a starter into his 4th season

Manziel will likely go down as one of the best college qb's ever but I don't see him being a stud in the nfl

Looks like Texas A&M has fallen asleep after going up 14-0.

If the booth says it isn't a foul why can't they nullify the penalty?

That is a stupid rule. That the replay can't overturn the call since it is already being replayed for just that reason.
