Around the Big Ten

[hack]

LOL. Way off. The biggest difference between the Big Ten and the SEC is the middle of the SEC is always worlds better than the middle of the Big10.

Not way off. But if listed attendance last year was 64k in a 70k stadium, and you remember it as poorly attended, then that says it all.

[whodean]

Listed attendance at last year's game was 64,000, which isn't bad considering it was the very first one and not featuring any of the four traditional heavyweights.

I guess that rumor of the conference hiring seat-fillers was a hoax.

#1 We've never seen a 6-6 team in the SEC championship game (that's kind of the point), #2 the GA Dome would be full regardless.

So you're point is that the SEC has never had a cheating program left out of the consideration for the conference championship. That's kinda OUR point.

They have, but not two in one year. Arkansas got to go over Alabama in 2002. Once in the 90's as well, I believe

The Georgia dome is in Georgia.... Who played in the game. Bama is 2 hrs from Atlanta. That does make a difference.

Just wanted to check in and apologize on behalf of the University of Nebraska to all the fine Big Ten fans here for the shitshow we put on display tonight.

[WingsFan]

Not your fault, I picked N to win also. What a terrible game, I like BA though.

That musta been shit to watch, Hoss. I know the feeling...

[Rocky Bleier]

Next year when OSU and M play back to back (Fuck you, Delaney), easy sell out.

M v.s. osu each year for the championship = The way it's supposed to be.

[Dr. Strangelove]

Here's to providing you with many more such feelings

[hack]

You wish. osu has never done that to M and never will. But I do recall the Eagles/Lions 95 playoffs game.

posted on another board... not sure of accuracy, but interesting thoughts

=============

The problem is South Carolina. Here's why. The cap one bowl has first pick and wants manziel and ATM. The sec would then send Georgia to Dallas. That leaves lsu and South Carolina to fill the two other top sec bowls, the outback and the chick Fil a.

Clemson is a lock for the chick Fil a. They won't rematch Clemson and South Carolina, which means lsu probably would go there. That leaves South Carolina for the outback.

The outback doesn't want to rematch South Carolina and nu from last year.

So....

So, nu is likely either back in Orlando playing ATM or playing South Carolina again, this time in Tampa. Unless the sec let's Georgia fall to the outback I don't see anyway nu plays lsu in the outback unless ATM or Georgia agree to fall all the way to the chick fil a bowl, OR the chick Fil a bowl takes bandy instead of South Carolina and lets South Carolina fall to the gator. Ten lsu would be in the outback.

I don't care who Michigan plays as long as they have a chance to win. Don't want to watch a rerun of RR's final game.

[THE_WIZARD_]

...at least you have a chance to win...UNL is going to get spanked...yet again...

[Rocky Bleier]

They're going to a bowl game? The UNL president should decline the offer after last night. Just another example that there are way too many bowl games. Six wins is a low standard.
