Soxbadger Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 30, 2016 -> 08:24 AM) OSU is in regardless, I think Wisconsin and Michigan have real shots. I was referring to a second Big10 team getting in. I think OSU is in already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Nov 30, 2016 -> 08:44 AM) Agreed OSU is in. I think the only way WI gets in is if Clemson or Washington loses. If they both win the top 4 teams from this week will remain (maybe a bit off shuffling 2-4). I don't for the life of me see how they can put a 10-2 MI team who came in 3rd in their own division, has lost 2 out of the last 3, one of which was to an unranked IA team that WI beat, ahead of WI at 10-2 whose losses were both to top 5 teams by a combined 14 points and is playing for the conference title. I get that MI beat WI but it was at home, by 7 points, and with WI having key injuries and starting a freshman QB in his second career start. If WI wins and doesn't jump ahead of MI, regardless of whether they make the playoffs, then this whole playoff thing is a total sham and apparently conference titles mean nothing. I think if Wisconsin beats PSU convincingly, and UW or Clemson loses, they are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 29, 2016 -> 08:19 PM) Its all relative. At the time Michigan lost to Iowa, Iowa was un-ranked. I really think that the only chance the Big10 has is if Washington or Clemson lose. I think that the Big10 teams end up canceling each other out. I don't buy that argument at all. I do agree with you that for a second team to get in, Washington or Clemson has to lose. Personally, I don't think Clemson should be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had just signed a 6 year extension a year ago. I wonder if he will be like Beckman and not get paid. Supposedly he had $11 million left on his contract and he took $542,000 to go away. He must have done something bad. Edited December 2, 2016 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I coach HS football and don't have a ton of contacts but I heard this yesterday from some guys: Les Miles made a bunch of demands at Purdue that they weren't willing or able to do and their focus has shifted to PJ Fleck. Fleck is interested in the Purdue job but is holding out for a better offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purdue was getting p**** with him because they wanted it all wrapped up early this week. Don't know if they'll wait for him to finish or move on now.

RegionSox Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 It sounds likePurdue will probably announce Brohm on Monday as the new head coach. I'm ok with them hiring Brohm.

Any coach worth his salt is going to demand more money for assistants and HUGE upgrades to the facilities which are some of the worst in the conference. Purdue doesnt seem to have any interest in doing any of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
