College Football - Week of 11/3

[gflore34]

Of course, holding on MSU, hey Officials why don't you look at those guys in Maize and Blue - the best holders in the nation.

 

 

If you really think this is why Michigan is kicking our butts, please take a seat in the losers section.

 

Not at all however, for the last two weeks I've watched Michigan' opposition get called for holding while they continue to drag defenders to the ground without a call.

[E.J.]

I'm so tired of watching Michigan run the same 8 plays all game long. Open up the offense already. There are a bunch of weapons at WR and it looks like Hart is injured again.

better get used to it... i've been waiting for it to change for five years; i've just accepted that michigan is going to get the calls and if you want to beat them, you're going to have to overcome that

 

 

ahhhh stupid navy missing the extra point

[Flames24Rulz]

SIU escapes with a 10-9 win over WIU. We did our best to piss the game away, though. With about 1:30 left, we fumbled the ball at the WIU 4. The defense stepped up in a big way and sealed the deal with an INT on a last ditch effort by WIU with 1 second remaining.

 

8-1 on the season. Win our final two, and we should have HFA for the first 2 rounds.

It's okay Truffle. Penn State will beat Michigan someday...

Its a losers mentality. Michigan is beating us for reasons like, our stupid penalities, Hoyer not being very good, our lack of running game. If you are waiting for the refs win the game for us, please become a Penn St fan.

dude there's a reason that michigan state fans are wondering about the officiating in this game, and illinois fans a couple of weeks ago, and penn state fans, and northwestern fans...

I am in shock that Michigan went for it

because they all are teams that need everything to go right to win ball games?

there's really no point in discussing this with michigan fans... other B11 can see it but michigan fans never will

[Guest]

Because they get tired of losing to Michigan year in and year out so they come up with crazy theories about how the referees are biased for Michigan and that allows the fans of the other teams to sleep at night without thinking their team sucks. Rather than "You know, maybe our team just isn't that good." it's "We're better than Michigan but they just get all the calls and the referees favor them."

[illiniguy]

Is Kansas really this good? Or have they just not played anyone that good? I am betting they wished they had played anyone in their preconference now though. I think they could run their schedule and there is still no way they play for the title.

I don't doubt that Michigan is getting away with some holds, but for people to complain about it in this game when MSU has done absolutely NOTHING in the game is asinine.

I am a Michigan St fan and I am not wondering about the officiating. I am wondering why people cry about it all the time. Losers cry about officiating. Sorry thats the way I see it and it will not change. Michigan St is not losing this week because of the REFs. Its because of our mistakes. We are commiting the penalties that are getting called. Our player let Hart fake him out of his pants on one play and didnt bring him down on another. Our QB underthrew a wide open TD. We fix that stuff we are winning. NOT CRYING ABOUT OFFICIATING.

 

I am sorry but the truth is officials are human and they make mistakes that GO BOTH WAYS. If you are looking for the officials as the reason your team losses, well that explains why your team losses.

ah good to see that our california friend follows the big ten closely and sees most of the conferences games.

When Michigan plays at Illinois and has 1 penatly for 5 yards and Illinois has 10 for well over 100 and the game is a one score game up until the last series, the officials had a hand in deciding that game. Right or wrong.

I am not a Michigan fan.

Funny how every week some crappy team plays their best half or best game of the year against UCLA.

 

Arizona is up 27-14 on UCLA and should be up more. UCLA's defense has been on the field way too much and is going to get worn out in the second half between being tired and the Tucson heat. And this is the most winnable game remaining on the UCLA schedule. Whoops.

[TruffleShuffle]

navy!!!

 

and this usf-cincy game is AWFUL; i have liked the big east the conference has looked pretty lousy lately.

not really, i'm convinced that the most winnable games for ucla are the ones against good teams. Oregon or USC? sure we can beat them. Utah without their quarterback and running back? An awful wazzu team? let's get blown out!

Wrong. Illinois penalties were late hits, face masks, offsides, roughing the punter. Did Michigan do any of these and not get called.
