Around the Big Ten

The ACC needs no help in sucking ass, and championing Rutgers is embarrassing even by SEC is WAR!!! standards.

Have some self respect, DSL.

Speaking of sucking ass, it’s kinda sad to see a once proud Nebraska team struggling with a middling 1-AA team at home.

[Jeff Buchanan]

Buchanan will be utterly shocked that M covered with ease. Because he’s a fucking idiot.

No, anyone that takes preseason guesses about the strengths and weaknesses of a CFB team seriously or an indication that any team that clubs another in an opening game is a sure 12 game winner and beats their chest about picking the score is a "fucking idiot."

This man does not speak for me.

5-2-1 in conference games.

2-0 in wildcard games including a win backing dreadful Wyoming. And some clean living to get the UNC cover. Then again, I still don't know exactly how Illinois didn't beat IU. Well, I guess I probably do...they're Illinois.

Anyway, after Clemson choadgrenades GT I'll be 3-0 in Wildcard games. For The Wizard and anyone else who struggles with foundational addition, that'll be 8-2-1 for the week. Not exatly Alabam"Alum" levels of prognostication, but not bad considering the slate of shit games I force myself to pick.

And, yes, I was not correct about the OSU/ND over.

It's not a fucking coin flip, you daft twatwaffle. It's not as if we're sitting here musing about whether M was better than Colorado State. Normal, rationale people made assumptions based on rosters and gads of available data and concluded that M was better than Colorado State. You did that, btw. But, you're apparently unwilling to go any further from all the available data than that, while some of us, who actually dig around and think about it a little more, were willing to go further and note the massive roster disparity, the bad matchup, the new coach at CSU and so on and say, "yeah, M should should blast these guys barring CFB irregularities."

I have news for you, twatwaffle -- Hawai'i is fucking, fucking, fucking horrific. M is going to blast the living fuck out of them unless HARBAUGH!!!! has McCarthy start taking a knee in the 3rd. It's going be something like 60ish to maybe 10. Maybe even 70s. It's going to be a decimation. You can poo-poo that as a guess or resort to the worst -- "we can't possible KNOW that" -- but it ain't a guess out of a thin air. It ain't a guess like the powerball. It's an informed opinion.

So carry on with your "eh, it'll be 31-10 b/c Harbaugh [FILL IN SOME IRRATIONAL REASON]". This is going to be a total bloodbath. M should be favored by 40+

Hawaii followed up their 53 point loss -no, not loss, skull-dragging- by the Mighty Commodores of Vandy with a rousing 32-point loss to [[checks notes]] Western Kentucky. This 85-point two-game gang rape was consummated in Honolulu.

Vandy and Western Kentucky had MUCH harder games against their other two opponents: Elon and Austin Peay. Vandy beat Elon by 11 and Western Kentucky, likewise, beat Austin Peay by 11.

Hawaii is historically bad. I’m not kidding, right now I would take a major HS team (say IMG or Mater Dei or whatever) to beat Hawaii.

[iam416]

Hawai'i is so bad that those of us with modest English proficiency search for the words, metaphors, similes, other comparisons etc to paint an accurate picture and, when we're done and haved reviewed our work, we can only conclude it's not enough. And, ultimately, they're so language-defying awful that we're reduced to the gutteral noises, clicks and hand-waving that are trademarks of The Wizard, Strangelove and other like-educated folks.

That said, we can't really "know" how this M-Hawai'i game is going to go. Look for HARBAUGH!!!! to work on some things, not run up the score and for it be something like 27-3.

[AlabamAlum]

This will be a beat-down of epic proportions. The only way this game is close is if half the Wolverine team eats gas station sushi the night before and ends up with food-borne dysentery.

If the line is 40 or less, bet the house.

ALOHA, MAHALO FUCKERS!

Sandbagging is sooo distasteful. I’m not mad at you, Liney, just disappointed.

[lineygoblue]

I've learned from the best, sir. You and Mr. Talent ESQ are the masters.

I'd doff my cap to you but I don't want to blind you.

[AlabamAlum]

I never sandbag.

[Jeff Buchanan]

I never sandbag.

I actually agree with this ..... mostly. talent? NFW. He's just awful

[THE_WIZARD_]

AA sandbags more than Biden lies.
