Cooper almost snagged another bomb of about 50. Sims has made some mistakes but damn, he's got a cannon arm.

It's not just Michigan, it's the entire Big 10.

When the standard bearer and only school with national relevance can't beat a pedestrian VT it is time to hit the panic button.

The conference as a whole seems to crumble in out of conference games of any significance that aren't against the MAC.

Cannon arm? He just lobs the ball up because floridas DBs suck so bad.

He's not very good, it's just easy to hit wide open WRs for 70 yard TDs in the SEC.

A little credit to the B1G today. Maryland and Iowa both beat average teams BCS teams, both on the road. However, Illinois is losing at home to Texas State.

Blake Sims has a cannon arm. That's not saying his 2 long TD's weren't both shitty coverage, but he's got an arm...

Kenny Hill with 265 yards, 2 TD's and 57 yards rushing at the half.

A real question is...what has happened to SMU football? Not that they were great, but a few years ago they had some upward momentum. They are atrocious now.

Makes it to the end of the season and then a Harbaugh takes over which won't be good for OSU

Hey Sleeper, Rutgers is putting an end of times beating on Navy. It's 31-17 in the fourth quarter. As we lnow, those are royal ass whippin' numbers in your book.

Indiana takes the lead. With their defense though 22 seconds may be too much time to give to Mizzou.

Indiana beats Mizzou on the road after losing to BGSU last week. Crazy!

There coach was on the radio pre-game talking about how his players weren't intimidated before the game because when you play in the SEC west (5 top 10 teams in the AP) you are used to playing games at this level every week. He said where other conferences have only 1 or 2 games a year against top 10 teams on their schedule, the meat grinder of the SEC has you ready.

Hard to argue with his logic. It is crazy that a 7 team subdivision of a conference can manage to have 5 of the top 10 teams in the country.

Florida State probably wishes Jameis wasn't a lying sack of shit right about now. Could probably use him for the 2nd half.

MSU gets A&M and Auburn the next 2 weeks. What a brutal stretch.

Edit: next 2 games, not weeks. They're off next week.
