I think Brohm has given every Purdue opponent from now on license to go all-out against any victory formations the Boilermakers show, and if one of their players gets hurt in the process they'll have their own head coach to thank for it.

Stanford/TCU looks like its headed for an exciting finish.

[tarcone]

B1G is 3-0. With wins over the Pac 12 and ACC.

SEC is 0-1. and is in last place in the Bowl challenge standings. Below the Sun Belt and the AAC and, well, everyone.

Yeah, I bet Indianapolis and San Francisco and others will win week 17 in the NFL while others rest for the playoffs. Update me on how the B1G and SEC do in the actual playoffs. I guess we know one of them 0-0, same as the Sun Belt and AAC and well everyone but the ACC and Big 12.

Well, this is the college football thread. So Indy and SF really have non chance to win a bowl game

Que?

[HerRealName]

In panerd's defense, I thought the playoff comeback was a good one. It was just the NFL comparison that makes no sense.

Of course, the thought of a Mizzou fan bragging about playoff appearances is entertaining as well.

66 combined points in the first half of the TAMU-Wake game

I'm just going to keep laughing

[cartman]

Jimbo is glad he signed a 10 year contract.

I dunno if the defenses tightened up in the 2nd half so much as the offenses got a little tired

[Bobble]

Interesting ejection in the NW/Kentucky game. Ref tries to help up the RB who got stuffed for a loss, the RB pushes the ref's hands off him, flag, ejected. Super-cheap. NW lost their QB and Kentucky loses their RB.

[Neuqua]

I now totally understand why everyone kills Pac12 referees. This has been one of the worst officiated halves I've ever seen.

[bhlloy]

Same refs that threw a 15 yard unnecessary roughness penalty on a false start when the DE hit the QB before the whistle was blown earlier this season.

Pac-12 refs, and this crew in particular, really just are that terrible. It's nice when bowl games happen just so the rest of the country can see it.

[Butter]

Kentucky with a nonsensical go for 2 try with 37 seconds left that fails, and they lose.

Nice job, Stoops.

[bronconick]

Sam Darnold is already a Cleveland Brown.

[tarcone]

B1G 4-0 in bowls.

SEC 0-3

Man, the B1G is a lot worse than the SEC,

[MrBug708]

Not a chance he goes ahead of Rosen.

Last year: Sam Darnold covered the SC's shortcomings
this year: the PAC 12 covered SC's shortcomings.

[Butter]

Well not with that attitude he won't.

[Eaglesfan27]

These refs are ridiculous.

[Logan]

On that deep pass by USC, the ball moved in his hands after his left foot came up near the sideline.

[MrBug708]

That was ugly. The poor OSU player, who went to help out that lady, was the one who got trucked blindsided, when his teammate was the one who threw Darnold out of bounds.

[tarcone]

tOSU put a whooping on USC.

[MrBug708]

I dont understand how a Frentz offense put up that many points on that front 7

[bhlloy]

Iowa has well coached veteran offensive linemen and USC (and let's be honest most of the PAC-12) doesn't?

[bhlloy]

Not sour grapes, OSU deserved to win, better team and the result is always absolutely what it is.

That being said, nearly getting doubled up in offensive yardage, getting 14 gift points off turnovers and winning by 17 points is a whooping? USC's offense kept turning it over but OSU's offense basically did nothing outside of one drive.

And spoiler alert, the PAC-12 is terrible this year. Not sure this one is what you want to hang your hat on.

[JonInMiddleGA]

Okay, just saw the ejection of Snell from the Kentucky game.

Holy cow, that's just horrible officiating. That's "time to fire this tanning bed living mfer" bad.

Well USCs lone score came off a gift as well if you want to play that game.

The OSU front 7 whooped the shit out of the USC OL. That was everything that mattered in the game (besides Darnold's horrible read on the pick 6) and pretty much everything else was just noise.

[Butter]

Winning by 17 points is a whooping, yes.

Iowa had 2 freshmen OTs, a guard that might get drafted, another guard that is just ok and a really good center.

But they did manhandle tOSU. but I think that was more of a tOSU hangover from the previous week and they probably went into the game thinking "Its Iowa, we can take the week off".

But it did cost them a playoff spot.

[NobodyHere]

I think that Iowa State had the TD there.

[Jas_lov]

Refs in the Memphis-Ia State game are horrible. They've got to clean house with these refs next season.

[NobodyHere]

That was a soccer worthy flop

[dawgfan]

Man. Hard to argue against the idea that the Pac-12 wasn't very good this year. That was the worst I've seen the Husky defense play in a long, long time. Kudos to Penn State, they would have blown-out Washington if not for the miscues.

[MrBug708]

McSorely was unreal on 3rd down

[tarcone]

Or maybe the B1G is that good.

Those Miami unis are fugly

[MrBug708]

The Big-10 might be good, but for sure, the PAC-12 is awful. Three coaches, who made the postseason, were fired.

[tarcone]

Good vs. bad. I will give you that.

But 6-0 looks pretty damn impressive, doesnt it Moonie.

By the way how is the SEC faring so far?

[tarcone]

Or should I say SuckEC? hehehehehehe

For someone who has the 3rd most posts in this thread, CM sure has been quiet as shit these past few days.

Probably couldnt pay his Internet service from his anti-big ten wagers.

[bronconick]

Benny Snell got kicked out yesterday for less than Mark Richt just did.

[JPhillips]

Richt absolutely should be tossed at halftime.

[bronconick]

Turnover Sausage

[tarcone]

Thank goodness Wisconsin won. I was afraid the B1G wouldnt win a bowl......Oh wait.

This is fun. I hope you guys realize Im really enjoying this bowl season.

[Atocep]

Hard to beat good teams with a QB as bad as Rosier.

[mauchow]

People were saying Hornibrook was worse than Rosier.

Another good season for Wisconsin. Disappointing to be 13-1 instead of 13-0 & playing Monday still.. but this is a good consolation.

Wisconsin was helped in their matchup with Miami, who isn't quite there yet, but close once they can land a QB.

Not a bad year for a team not worthy of the top 40.

Trying to figure out how to spin the bowl season to argue how crappy the B1G is.

We may not hear from him again. His brain probably exploded.

I wouldn't have agreed before the game and certainly wouldn't now. However, even if he was Wisconsin doesn't need Hornibrook to be as good as Miami needs Rosier to be.
