Arizona put a serious beat down on Oregon.  That should shut them the make the beast with two backs up for sure.

OSU busted up Baylor. 

Meanwhile, Alabama plays Chattanooga. 

I have no doubt that Alabama is the #1 team...but WTF. Playing a lower conference team at this point in the season??

I hate that part of scheduling in college ball, I think everyone plays really weak teams during the year.

Most only do it at the very beginning of the season though. Make fun of the Pac-12 all you want, but they only play conference games after the 2nd or 3rd week. Playing a FCS team this late in the year is pathetic...is almost like having a bye.

Interesting article.  

Still...looking back on the last 4 seasons (and I'd bet longer)...Alabama always schedules a "cupcake" game over this weekend. It's lame, and obvious that they do it intentionally to gain momentum and give their players a break towards the end of the year. Meanwhile the Pac-12 (as an example) teams continue to beat each other up in conference, all of the "cupcakes" having been played in the first 3 weeks.

Not to take away from Alabama obviously being great, just sayin...

Only one thing to say this week;

make the beast with two backs Michigan

Ohio hasn't even lost yet and yer already slinging around the insults.












(See what I did there?  )

Ha good one. 

Hey its THE GAME and I grew up in the 90's so I know anything can happen. Stupid Tim Biankabatuka (however the hell you spell his name)

Since 2001 the team with the most rushing yards has won this game.  I like OSU's chances to do that considering we are the best rushing team in the league and top 5 nationaly. 

My hope is to get you guys to more negative yards rushing than MSU.  Shazier had 20 tackles and 5 tfl last week I'm guessing he gets more than 5 this week.  OSU's d line has the most sacks in the Big Ten and even you would say that your Oline is absolutely terrible. 

I think your d is good enough to keep you in it for a while but Gardner is going to throw it to the wrong team at least twice.   

Well boys & girls, the 'Iron Bowl' is tomorrow and you can cut the tension in Alabama with a knife. This is definitely the most significant iron bowl in a long time if not ever.  

Ballsy call...can't say it was a bad one either though. Play for the win in a game like that.
Good job to the Buckeyes.

About 99% sure it's gonna be 'Bama and FSU unless Auburn can make some magic...

Got to give it up to Gardner. I thought he played awesome. Can't believe it was that close.

Jesus 'Bama...yer killin' me...

Holy Shit!!    War Eagle
