I'm not a fan of milking clock in the 3rd quarter but come on now Zook, it's the 4th quarter. Your defense hasn't been getting the stops like they were in the first half. Milk some clock and give your D a break.

The botched punt pretty much sealed it. Now, Illi is just "killing" clock.

LeShoure is a heck of a runner. I compare OSU freshman Rod Smith a lot to him, which is definitely a good thing for Buckeye fans.

I was telling this same thing to my wife and she's like..."I don't see what difference it makes." lol After further explanation, she understood. You'd think Zook or the OC would see that.

Illinois just has superior talent to what Baylor has. Zook should really be ashamed of himself that they lost to Minnesota and Fresno State. They should be 9-4 instead of 7-6.

BTW, screw the commentator for impying that he take a knee.

He literally broke out in a light jog before even crossing the line of scrimmage. That was nuts. Wasn't a player within 15+ yards the entire "run"

Where's all the haters? Big 10 looking very strong. Physical superiority is showing.

I didn't mind the bootleg; its the defense's job to stop the other team, especially when you're running the football.... but the LB kicking off kind of did it for me.

Looked like there was some unpleasantries during the post-game handshake

I am afraid that will all come to an end Saturday with Bama v Mich State, Florida v Penn State and Michigan v Miss State. I think the big ten at best will finish those games 2-1 at worst 0-3. I expect Michigan and Penn State to pull the rabbit out of the their ass and win. Michigan State's running game isn't as good as Iowa Wisconsin or even Illinois, although they run it just as much or more.

Not surprised by this win. This was one I had penciled in for the B10 from the very beginning as Baylor blows. That being said, the B10 is off to a good start with Iowa's win over Missouri (although Missou literally gave that game away).

I think the Big 10 wins 2-3 saturday, with Mich State being the least likely.

Northwestern is definitely the least likely without Persa

You don't say? Are they magically going to lose an extra game not being played?

Forgot about this game. Yeah, they would have had a very good chance at winning with him. 2-2 saturday for the Big 10. Hopefully I'm wrong and they win all 4.

The Big Ten plays 5 bowl games Saturday. Wisconsin vs. TCU, Michigan State vs. Alabama, Penn State vs. Florida, Michigan vs Mississippi State, and Northwestern vs. Texas Tech.
