The good news is there is an increasing chance you guys get MSU for a bowl game and they are have been outscored 24-0 in the first quarter in their last two games.

Michigan converts on a 3rd and 20 with a 50 yard bomb. Gardner comes in and tosses it deep and gets intercepted.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 11:44 AM

If that game starts at 11:00 we might as well just have both teams take a nap in the literal sense.

Matthean · 10-29-2011, 12:06 PM

Combined passing of 5 for 15 for 27 yards in the NU/MSU game.

Michigan putting it together. 19-7.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 12:27 PM

There are not many worse teams in the country than first half-Arkansas.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 12:35 PM

21-7 Vandy.

Swaggs · 10-29-2011, 12:40 PM

Looking forward to watching the WVU-Rutgers game....on TV.

miked · 10-29-2011, 12:43 PM

Damn, my games are either Baylor-OSU or Ill-PSU on ESPN2. The ABC game is Baylor-OSU, so I guess no WVU-RU game for me. I called the bar down the street and they laughed when I asked about the game, apparently they are playing OU-KSU and UGA-FLA on every screen

First half Arkansas isn't. Second half Arkansas probably is. If they can figure out how to do this in the first half, well, that would be nice.

Matthean · 10-29-2011, 01:11 PM

Beautiful play call and run by Toussaint. Michigan up 29-7.

After OSU, Michigan, and Wisconsin, MSU looks like they have nothing left in the tank. 17-3 NU. You know it's bad when Martinez has better passing numbers than Cousins.

DeToxRox · 10-29-2011, 01:31 PM

MSU is not a good road team.

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 01:41 PM

The division that Iowa is in is wide open. Not sure what its called. But IF Iowa wins today, I think 4 teams will have one loss. But Im not sure, because I dont know who is int he division.

Legends.

DeToxRox · 10-29-2011, 01:44 PM

Michigan vs Iowa should be interesting next week.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 01:45 PM

Welp, after grabbing the momentum to start the second half and getting ready to take the lead, DJ fumbles (again) and three plays later Vandy is in the endzone again.

28-17 Vandy.

Fucking sigh.

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 01:45 PM

Looking to win Floyd of Rosedale today.

Go Hawks!

Yeah. I hope Iowa has learned how to stop a running QB. If not, it will be ugly for us.

Matthean · 10-29-2011, 01:54 PM

I know it won't be easy, but if Michigan goes 2-2 from here on out, I'll be happy.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 01:59 PM

May have finally dug themselves one too many holes to dig out of. Vandy 28-Ark 20 end 3rd quarter.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 02:03 PM

Well that was disappointing.

edit: nm

28-28!

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 02:03 PM

Holes not too deep now

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 02:09 PM

Just got out of the hole

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 02:10 PM

Then again, maybe not

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 02:13 PM

The number of bone-headed stupid plays in this game by Arkansas is stunning.

This is the whole problem. When you dig a hole like we keep digging, you have to play nearly perfect or the other team has to start sucking. When one of those things doesn't happen, it gets to be a problem.

While it is the easiest, they struggle in Iowa City and always have battles with Northwestern.

Kirk Cousins has never beaten a ranked team on the road outside the state of Michigan.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 02:23 PM

Arkansas finally takes the lead 31-28.

Fun stat. Last last time MSU had a loss that was less than 10 points? Oct. 31, 2009. Since then, 42-14, 41-31, 37-6, 49-7, 31-13, 24-3. That's....a problem.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 02:42 PM

holy facepalm batman

cuervo72 · 10-29-2011, 02:45 PM

Dang. You guys had them, James.

MJ4H · 10-29-2011, 02:46 PM

This team is trying to kill me. Arkansas 31, Vandy 28 Final. Vandy missed a 27 yd field goal that would've tied it.

Easy Mac · 10-29-2011, 03:05 PM

That was the worst easily makeable FG I've ever seen.

Furman is beating UTC 6-0 in the 4th.

MizzouRah · 10-29-2011, 03:09 PM

MIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bronconick · 10-29-2011, 03:12 PM

It's amazing to watch Georgia routinely implode against Florida ever year.

Easy Mac · 10-29-2011, 03:12 PM

Furman was about the get great field position, and a punt hit one of our up guys in the back, UTC recovered. UTC now inside the 30.

JonInMiddleGA · 10-29-2011, 03:13 PM

Had to laugh at the announcers (on the GA-FL game) comment to the effect that the fans in Nashville say "that's why we're Vandy" ... I'd said the same thing to my son about a minute earlier.

I mean, in a nutshell, that's pretty much the Vandy experience, finding a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

RedKingGold · 10-29-2011, 03:13 PM

Devon Still (PSU) is a beast.

Easy Mac · 10-29-2011, 03:13 PM

Someone should tell Florida they're going the wrong way.

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 03:28 PM

Iowa is struggling with Minnesota. Minnesota has to beone of the worst teams in FBS. And we are tied 0-0 after the 1st quarter.

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 03:31 PM

Im "watching" the Iowa game on BTN.com. It is play-by-play. Think solevision. Anyway, im watching and it says Iowa misses a 24 yard FG on 2nd and 4 on the Minne 5 with 1 minute left in the 1st quarter. What?
I call my nephew and he tells me it 4th and 2 when we kicked it. How hard is it to make a play-by-play program that is accurate?

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 03:32 PM

And Iowa misses abnother FG by our Lou Groza semi-finalist. Stupid.

Swaggs · 10-29-2011, 04:18 PM

WVU has not been able to stop a drive for two weeks now, unless the other team screws up. Pretty painful to watch them right now.

I'm guessing we're about two losses (including this week, if Rutgers wins) from the fan base going completely nuclear.

Lathum · 10-29-2011, 04:23 PM

Just turned to the RU-WVU game on espn3, amazed to see RU up by 10 and the weather looks awesome! Wish I was there, go RU!

bronconick · 10-29-2011, 04:27 PM

Rutgers would like every team left on their schedule to announce they're leaving the Big East.

SirFozzie · 10-29-2011, 04:27 PM

RG3's bandwagon just hit a iceberg.

RedKingGold · 10-29-2011, 04:34 PM

Wow, Illinois just got screwed. Penn State got a gift call of an interception when the DB ripped the ball away from the WR...even though both were already on the ground.

tarcone · 10-29-2011, 04:35 PM

Iowa RB Marcus Coker has 23 rushes for 201 yards and 1 TD midway through the 3rd quarter.
