Ha I really don't think they are. They just realized at half that it's windy:huh:

I'm going to stick with my original thesis that Illinois is really not very good at all. Nice to see the Bucks take care of business in a game they should win.

The Nebraska choke job is really a shame now. If we were 2-1 in the conference with Purdue, Indiana, and Penn State coming up the Wisconsin game would actually have legitimate B1G implications.

Oh well. Nice performance by the D today.

Nice win. I can see this team getting 8 wins, not too bad considering the situation

Just got back from watching the game at a friends house. Good game and great win for the Buckeyes. I must say I am surprised. Looks like the same old Zook Illini. How does that guy have a job still?

Good confidence booster for the Buckeyes.

It still does? If we win out, we go to the B1G championship game?

You see Wisconsin losing again even if we manage to beat them? I don't.

He deleted it and cleared it up. I too wanted to see him get a few more carries. He'll get his.

I don't think so, wouldn't they only have one loss in conference and we'd have 2. Not sure how losses to division and opposite divisions factor though.

Yes, maybe people are forgetting the first 2 games were with teams in the other division. OSU is currently 1-0 in their division.

The talent gap was evident. I think I could call plays and beat Eastern Illinois. Amazing Illinois was #16 and Michigan was # 11. Nebraska is grossly overrated too. Sorry folks.

I was not forgetting it, I wasn't aware. If that's actually the rule (division record is all that matters and not conference), then it's the stupidest fucking rule I've ever heard in my life.

For what it's worth, Wikipedia says
Division standings are based on each team's overall conference record
which is the way it actually makes sense.

That's actually retarded. Why have divisions then? It's not like say the Ravens go undefeated in the AFC North but lose 2 AFC games and therefore can't win the Division.

BTW link?
