I can't cheer for Baylor sorry.

And just like that, OSU wets the bed.

 

[Acylum]

That’s ok, I’m not sure people watch them a whole lot for their IQ

I love their big b….rains.

God I hate that stupid KSU song!

Well the OSu fight song polka is about as bad too.

 

[2speedy1]

Lot of blue in the stands at the BYU Baylor game. And a lot of empty seats too.

 

[kentkel]

BU gets to within 14. I want BU to lose, but I am okay with them keeping it close enough to ensure that Aranda remains their HC next week.

 

[FriendlySpartan]

Michigan is just Iowa with much better athletes has been the theme of this game. **** this is burning football and the rain is blowing everywhere

 

[Kinch]

Kentucky takes the lead.

 

[BigJCy]

Nebraska 0
Purdue 0 at the half.

 

[clonedude]

Nebraska 0
Purdue 0 at the half.

And Purdue absolutely sucks too.

 

[Kinch]

I feel like a lot of times teams get energized for a few games when coaches get fired. Bill Simmons calls it the New Coach Theory

Didn’t work for us when Walden quit with three games to go.

much harder to navigate the scenarios with the (uneven) scheduling in the new Big Twelve. Win out and we're good, but i don't expect that to happen, so the next avenue of thought would be what outcomes in these games is favorable for ISU to make/win the conference? You have to abandon what would be best for the conference reputation or for ISU's SOS and look at what is most likely to get us the opportunity. If our biggest challengers get eliminated our path becomes more manageable. Go Bears.

 

[ClonerJams]

I don't think Nebraska is back

 

[Acylum]

And Purdue absolutely sucks too.

I’ve got news for ya.

That's all good and well but your analysis hasn't considered the key factor of F*ck Baylor.

Checking in on the Nebraska game since I don't have peacock. This is definitely big 10 football

That's definitely elite something anyway.

It's the coaching version of the Patrick Ewing theory.

Saw this live. Something like this needs to be looked at.

Nebraska 0

Barn Burner!!! LOL

I mean, everyone knows they are fake. But no one dares say anything because at some point you may penalize someone for an actual injury, that just appeared fake. No one wants to address it because of the player safety aspect.

I think it was last week someone faked one and then his teammate pretended to do CPR on him, everyone knows its a joke, but wont touch it.
