I'm thinking of making the trip down to Pitt December 3 for the Pitt SU game. Be awesome if the conference title was on the line one way or another.
I dont think Pitt is in the driver seat. It was 1 game and they are bound to blow it eventually. There are any number of teams in the Big Easy that can make a case for winning the division. UConn, Pitt, WVU, Cuse, and Cincy all can state a valid case as to why they would win the conference this year.

Always find a way to give it away but hey its fun pretending we have a shot for a while!

Minnesota has gold glitter on their helmets. What is happening in this country?

Michigan should steam roll the Gophers. Minnesota doesn't have the speed to matchup with Robinson and the team has been so distracted with headcoach Jerry Kills' seizure situation, I'm not sure how they could get a "good" week of practice in. If Michigan doesn't win by 40, I'll be shocked.

I don't remember a Gopher team this bad! They are making Denard look like a good QB. This **** is a pure runner and he looks like Andrew luck out there.

Michigan is a classy school with to much respect for their opponents so it would be abnormal for them to beat anyone by 40+. Pre RichRod era they could have easily run up the score countless times but did not. I think their refusal to run the score into the 60s cost them in the rankings.

If Michigan wins by 40+ it will be with their 2nd and 3rd string which will come in early in the 2nd half. Its 38-0 now at the half and I could easily see a 45-17 final...at least based upon pre RichRod approach.

The Navy quarterback should be taken to the woodshed for the stupid penalty he took for unsportsmanlike conduct for jawing at some Air Force players on their last touchdown in reg. possibly costing them the game. Michigan laid the lumber to the Gophers 58-0 and the Aggies pulled another choke job, have fun in the SEC.

Whoooo doggy did the Badgers just beat the piss out of Nebraska. It was rough early, and then the Corn Huskers QB forgot they were wearing road whites.

Some interesting happenings with the rankings come Monday.

Notre Dame finally looked like a noteworthy team, passing all over Purdue. I made a thread about taunting, there was a penalty on Purdue that really pissed me off. The Purdue guy broke up a pass and high 5'ed the crowd, not flagerent, not showboating, and it was a 15 yard penalty.

While their D looked good...and the Buckeyes offense is just really really bad, Cousins is making a habit of dumb decisions in big moments. They should have won yesterday by 30. Oh well, a win over OSU is nice to see.

Nice job by Pitt.
That's because they beat a very overrated ND team 1st game of the year.
