looks like Wisconsin will get to the Rose Bowl out of the Big Ten, for being a couple spots higher in the BCS than tOSU. I think it's safe to say now that the Buckeyes will finish with one loss, and they will probably make it to the Sugar Bowl, via the BCS bid due to having a team that when they plays they have a) high ratings and b) fans that make the BCS holy pilgrimage every year

I would love to see tOSU VS LSU, but I would like to see tOSU VS Auburn and Camburglar Newton. doubtful, as Auburn might make it to the NC although you can never be surprised if you lose in the Iron Bowl

woooooo! go Bucks. the month of November is always such a special month for tOSU

You could be playing USCe Gamecocks. I think OSU would finally get revenge for those two losses a while back, or was that just one game

Fans may now help determine which quarterback will win the coveted O'Brien Award by voting as often as once daily at www.VoteOBrien.org. Fan voting will close at noon (CST) on Dec. 5.

The 2010 winner will be announced on The Home Depot College Football Awards Show on Thursday, Dec. 9 and will be honored at the 34th Annual O'Brien Awards Dinner on Feb. 21, 2011 at The Fort Worth Club in Fort Worth, Texas.

are spaceyourbass and TheLoveBandit collectively sighing this week of games, due to their teams (USCe and FLA) scheduling such NCAA football powerhouses as Troy and Appy State, respectively? (come on SEC, I really on you weekly to deliver some quality games in the middle of the season)

Meh, I've recorded the UF-APSt game, but I wasn't about to show up in here crowing about the game. It's not FBS, and tbh, I was concerned all the shit I heaped on MICH for losing at home to them would show up to bite me in the ass. This was a no-win weekend, because if we beat them...we're supposed to; if we lose to them, we uber-suck...which was very, very possible. :\

Besides, I'm on vacation for the week with family in NM, where tv is a foreign concept. Difficult part is that I won't get home until Sat nite, and will have recorded the UF-FSU game, but not seen it....so you guys probably won't hear much from me from now until bowl season :\ My dog got bit and ran from the fight, and even the teams I'd be pulling for...I don't care that much for at this point. Only comment I can offer at this point in time is that I hope tOSU gets bumped as the second at-large bid ;)
 
let me take some time to introduce you to one of my favorite things about the Ohio State VS Michigan rivalry. as a musician, rooted in punk rock and the scene here in Columbus, Ohio nothing gets better than the Dead Schembechelers

and

album_Dead-Schembechlers-Rocket-to-Ann-Arbor.jpg


A side-project, based on the Ohio State-Michigan football game and rivalry... to form the band Dead Schembechlers. The name was a lighthearted jab at Michigan coach Bo Schembechler, who upon hearing about the band name was reportedly quite amused.[1] Following Schembechler's passing on November 17, 2006, the Dead Schembechlers changed their name to the "Bastard Sons of Woody", a reference to former Ohio State coach Woody Hayes.[2] The band plays many anti-Wolverine songs, at the tune of rock "legends" - such as Kiss and The Ramones. A long running joke on the official Dead Schembechlers website claims they originally wrote the tunes and other bands just stole the riffs. Also on their website the band claims to have released numerous singles and albums throughout the years, but in reality they only released two albums. In 2004 the album Rocket to Ann Arbor was released and soon after re-released as Wolverine Destroyer with a new tracks and alternate versions of existing songs.

The band "reunited" under the Dead Schembechlers name in 2008, and released a new EP, entitled "Rodriguez to Ruin," which poked fun at Wolverines head football coach Rich Rodriguez. Singles from the new release included "Rodriguez is a Weasel" (which the band claims was used as inspiration for the Toledo Rockets' upset of Michigan); and "I'm So Bored with the SEC." The band played two live concerts in 2008; their Cleveland show was their first to be scheduled outside of Columbus.

they have great songs... titled "Chad Henne is a Joke" and my personal favorite "Bomb Ann Arbor Now"

take a second to listen to "Bomb Ann Arbor Now" and "Chade Henne is a Joke"

my favorite things in like, punk rock and college football. punk rock haters need not listen, as my 16 year old self will sneer in your general direction, stick you with a dirty needle, and pour my Mad Dog on your skull between kicks to the dome
 
can somebody please talk to me about college football? smotpoker, have you heard of the Dead Schembechelers?

E. Gordon Gee is the President of tOSU, and he approves of footbaw and drinking heavily. however, he does not approve of Boise State or TCU getting into the BCS title game:

I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it's like murderer's row every week for these schools. We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor. We play very fine schools on any given day.- E. Gordon Gee

It's that time... The last weekend of the regular season is upon us. It's all rivalry games and championship/ bowl games from here out.

You guys had better not miss the Iron Bowl; it is going to be ridiculously hard fought this year.
 
Looks like Pitt's come alive all of a sudden.

Big game for Dave Wannstedt, he may have the contract till 2014, but the Alumni wont be happy with a 6-5 season if they lose today.

hehehe, at least we have Wisconsin, who beats down SEC teams like it's their job

did you listen to the songs? pretty kewl imo. the lead singer and guitarist were in some legendary Columbus indie rock bands, but they started that very fun side project. these type of weird intricacies are why I love college footbaw
 
since 2000 in bowl play, they have a losing record against the SEC (2-3). Their last win over an SEC team was at the end of the 06 season. I'll grant them that they are real competitors, and all their wins and losses have been close (which speaks well of the bowl selection committees. As for regular season play... I can't find them playing SEC teams, even shitty ones. They, like most teams aspiring to squeak by conference giants, schedule cupcakes like hawaii and ball state to improve their record.
 
Fuck... Backup QB throwing to backup receivers on the last-minute drive isn't going to work...
