When is the last time the Big Ten had SIX teams lose out-of-conference games in a single week? Four of them were at home. That isn't "the best having a down week", that's just a down week.

Some of those out of conference games were to nobodies, and OSU barely beat Toledo and Nebraska struggled against Fresno St.

It's a down week, and its the best conference. So tell me again how it isn't "the best having a down week"?

From what Ive read, J Jefferson is innocent. Videos to prove it and "innocent until proven guilty". Which players have been bought from the SEC? Havent seen proof of that. But, I did see proof of OSU players getting free gifts and cars.

Sure were alot of players driving multiple cars from the same dealer. And if Pryor was hurting for money, then why was he driving nice cars including a 350z. Sorry, 350z's with aftermarket wheels dont come from hurting for money.

He asked for proof. You got none. So say what you want about the other stuff that's proven, but unless you have something the NCAA does not, talking about cars is just you talking out your ass.

Neither side has anything (that we know of) to prove or disprove. But in your years of journalistic work, you've learned to frame an argument like a true professional. Your ass hasn't stopped talking in years.

The conference just proved what many of us have known for some time. It isn't our older brother's conference any more. People who root for Big 10 teams have absolutely no room to talk; there should be no Big 10 fan trashing other conferences this fall

With the extra team (Nebraska) I think the Big 10 will have a great bowl season and start to turn around the perception. Just my 2 cents.

Honestly, despite who the OP is, he isn't wrong. The B1G is sucking it up right now. They aren't very good this year.

Pretty sure you could ask that same question about sleeper. But if you're going to applaud one for "reeling 'em in," you might as well go ahead and applaud the other for the same thing while you're at it.

This was a really ugly week.

Minnesota losing at home to New Mexico State?
Purdue losing to Rice?

Nebraska struggling at home against Fresno State?
Ohio State struggling at home against Toledo?

This was an ugly week. It's good Michigan salvaged a win to save some respect for the conference.

We're taking care of sleeper. Don't worry, he's temporarily banned until Justin comes around and we can talk about what to do with him. His display after last nights game definitely went over the line in my opinion.
