Around the Big Ten

[entropy]

UCLA will probably beat UNL

[Dr. Strangelove]

Uh.. what of that list are you claiming are "big games" for the conference? Looks pretty mediocre to me. I guess the fact that the conference isn't playing a shitload of lower division teams is significant.

Well, there are 7 games against major opponents and also 7 games on the road. More than any other week in September, this week will reveal how weak/strong the conference is.

[Jeff Buchanan]

ND looks to be the strongest team in DSLs list of opponents. I can see his point if we're talking about blowouts. A strong conference performance would include big wins. In every game except Purdue. I don't see that happening. So does that mean the conference is weak then?

[Dr. Strangelove]

I think the B1G stands a good chance of losing many of those games, which would make the conf look pretty weak. I'm more concerned about that. Not expecting accolades for beating that "murderers row"

[Hannibal]

After a first quarter dominated by Penn State, Virginia appears to be taking over the game a bit. Still 7-3 PSU though.

[Hannibal]

Now 10-7 Hoos. With the way this one is going, I wouldn't be shocked to see that as the final score.

[Dr. Strangelove]

Did Penn State's regular kicker transfer out? This guy has missed a 20-yard FG and an extra point

[Hannibal]

Yes. Anthony Fera left.

[Dr. Strangelove]

My bad, he's missed 3 field goals overall. And had a extra point blocked

[Dr. Strangelove]

Made that one though!

[Hannibal]

This Virginia quarterback throws some of the worst spirals that I have ever seen.

[Hannibal]

Penn State still has some great athletes on defense. They could have at least a couple of good years until these guys are gone.

[Dr. Strangelove]

Kicker's going to get another shot at missing a 4th

[Dr. Strangelove]

Ugh...

Not sure what you can say to that guy

[whodean]

Fourth quarter begins: Oregon State 10, Wisconsin 0. Beavers lead 340-89 in total yards.


The conference is even shittier than last year.
