Yeah I mean that's definitely some good data. I think we could probably go back and find years where Big 12 offenses did great and Big 10 defenses did poor in regards to one single bowl game. But yeah good find!

They might have reached their season average if he played the entire game. 17 at half and he went out with 13 minutes left in the 3rd.
Big 12 teams scored over the opponents avg ppg allowed on the season in every regular season non con game accept 3:
Kansas/Costal Carolina
WV/Missouri
Texas Tech/Arizona
I bet Big 10 defenses gave up over the opponents avg ppg more often than that.
Yep but CyTwins and his minions have their own alternative reality where that didn’t count. They are masters at picking and choosing what does and doesn’t count so they can jump to massive conclusions. This feels like a good 100 post rally coming. He must have been saving his energy today.
ND was a really good team. They weren't elite by any means. They played Michigan in a rain storm and things kind of snowballed on them. It happens. Hell, iowa curb stomped a really good tOSU team a few years back that would have been in the playoff if not for that beat down. ND's other loss was a close one to a playoff caliber Georgia team.
We're not the ones coming up with the mock drafts. Unless he has a bad year or a bad injury, he's right in the middle of the competition to be the 3rd QB taken. That's late first round usually. If he's the 5th one, that is probably 2nd-3rd round. So late 1st through early 3rd is a safe bet.
Yep and never scored again while Iowa scored several times after that. In the CyTwins fantasyland he is absolutely sure SC would have magically figured out how to defend Iowa when in reality they hadn’t really stopped Iowa the entire game.
Dude you are absolutely obsessed with Twins lol. And no, USC probably wouldn't have stopped Iowa. However the game probably would've been a lot more interesting than it was had Slovis not gotten hurt.
Ohio St. was an elite offense. OU was an elite offense. Nobody else in the Big12 or Big10 had an elite offense.
The next tier down for the Big12 offensively put up good numbers because they play Big12 defenses. I mean ISU was #5 in the big12 offensive and they averaged over 32 PPG vs Big12 opponents. ISU managed 26 total points in 2 games vs top 20 defenses in Iowa and ND.
The way AJ and Chauncey were playing it was just a matter of time before the Iowa defense forced a turnover by the SC offense. With or without Slovis. Conversely how does a game get more interesting if the team that is behind doesn’t stop the other team from scoring?
Only cause of a bad call, that was a fumble, should have been Iowa's ball when he left the game.
Sorry, but recruiting rankings don't mean **** once you get on campus. Michigan and PSU with an actual GOOD QB would be in playoff contention. That's the main thing that is holding them back. Harbaugh hasn't had much more than a game manager since he got to UM. Martinez? That is just laughable. First off, he can't stay on the field. Second, he's just not that good...he might even get beat out this fall. Either you are trolling or just stupid. You guys always say that the NFL is the final judge on talent. But when ISU has a guy showing up in the first round on mock drafts, the recruiting services are a better judge. I don't think that I'm the one with blinders on.
You are correct. They had scored and then recovered an onside kick and he was injured on the 1st play after the onside kick.
4 sacks and 8 TFLs makes it a painful day for USC qbs
