RockRaines Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 26, 2011 -> 02:38 PM) LoL, because Ohio State never went crazy the past 3 years winning when Michigan was absolutely crap. Michigan also leads the rivalry 59-43-6. They should be happy they stopped the streak. It took every second of that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivalry is a Rivalry no matter what. Teams are up, teams are down, injuries happen. This the game the next few years will by dynamite because both teams could be top 10 teams.

Michigan didnt play PSU or Wisconsin, had 8 home games and just got gashed by a true freshman QB and a terrible offensive team. OSU is way too young on defense to know what they will be and are again changing coaches and coaching staffs. There is talent there on both sides, but I am not confident that they are all the way back just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Hopefully its Houston vs Michigan in the Sugar Bowl. Atleast that game will be 45-41 and entertaining. If Michigan has to face a BCS conference champ not from the Big East then they will get smoked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Remember the day after Labor Day and the hype Maryland was getting because of their uniforms and how the next great young QB threw for 350 yards against a depleted and horrific Miami team? Well fast forward 12 weeks and that same Maryland team finishes 2-10 with their only win since Labor Day was versus Towson. Their "great" QB is benched during the season and they lose by 31 to Temple and give up 42 straight second half points in their finale vs NCST and lose 56-41. Guess Randy Edsall and Scott Van Pelt didnt see this coming in early September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigruss Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 They were talking on 670 about Jim Tressel and where he may end up later. They mentioned Illinois, and I think it's a fun hypothetical scenario, I don't see him taking the job but it would be pretty cool to see a top coach come in and prove himself once again, especially in the same conference as OSU.

If he can recruit anywhere near osu level it would be an incredible hire for Illinois make them relevant in the football world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not getting hired anywhere, he lied to the NCAA during an investigation, he'll get a show-cause penalty attached to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I know its early and Meyer left Florida without talent on offense but I think Texas dodged a bullet with Muschamp going to Florida. When Mack finally steps down, they can go out a get a guy qualified to be the HC of Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 QUOTE (farmteam @ Sep 24, 2011 -> 01:48 AM) I'll eat crow if this doesn't happen, but I bet every team I listed has a better B1G record than Illinois. Let's see how I did. The 6 teams I thought would have a better B1G record than Illinois: Michigan (6-2) Ohio St. (3-5) Nebraska (5-3) Iowa (4-4) Penn St. (6-2) Wisconsin (6-2) Illinois was 2-6. It's pretty rare I get to feel smart when it comes to college football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Notre Dame's QB Andrew Hendrix looked very good vs. Stanford tonight. Kind of excited about a QB who is mobile but can actually throw, and throw pretty well. Dude has a cannon arm and was very fast for a QB. He looked like what Tebow wishes he was.

Hopefully, next year he will get that cannon arm aimed at his receivers. Don't know how much that will help though, with a total moron calling the plays.

Kyyle23 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Am I wrong to suggest that Kelly could possibly chase away all of his quarterbacks by next season? He is pretty brutal towards them in pretty much every facet, demeanor, confidence, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day Weis was fired I was hoping ND would hire anybody but Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
