[Smack]

I might skip watching this one.

 

I know how you feel.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Lose to bye week, I dare you.

[Andy]

It's probably the Cubs fan in me, but I'm frightened of the trap-game sirens that are all over this BYU game.

[UMFan83]

Michigan is ranked in both the AP and USA today poll. Or are you basing the rankings on BCS Standings?

 

Edit: Also, finally B1G has a team ranked in the Coaches poll!

Those are BCS standings.

Iowa is awful, right? I shouldn't be worried, right?

[Smack]

Iowa is awful, right? I shouldn't be worried, right?

 

That's what Michigan State said.

[sneakypower]

and Central Michigan

[abuck1220]

come on, don't make me start rooting against penn state again. you lost to virginia, you have to worry about everyone.

[Derwood]

come on, don't make me start rooting against penn state again. you lost to virginia, you have to worry about everyone.

 

Having a kicker who can't make any kicks is why they lost to Virginia

[abuck1220]

oh why didn't you say so. nevermind then, they'll run the table.

[Derwood]

oh why didn't you say so. nevermind then, they'll run the table.

 

That's what I was implying

[hawkeyecub]

Iowa is awful, right? I shouldn't be worried, right?

 

Why wouldn't you be worried? Penn State isn't good and it's at Iowa who just won at MSU. Iowa isn't good but they're favored.

Well, that and playing poorly enough that the kicker was a huge factor in losing to Virginia.

[abuck1220]

the kicker missed 11 field goals...penn state should have win by 30, give him a break.

[Derwood]

the kicker missed 11 field goals...penn state should have win by 30, give him a break.

 

He missed 3 or 4 field goals and an extra point and they lost by 1, but lets pretend it wasn't the kicker's fault they lost

[abuck1220]

oh dear lord please shut up.

[Smack]

I'm not sure who's trolling who here.

[sneakypower]

i wish i'd known about The Kicker Excuse in '10 when UM kickers were 28% on the year for FGs

[Derwood]

oh dear lord please shut up.

 

Please tell me more about Iowa State. The Cyclones are almost as interesting as Notre Dame

[mul21]

oh dear lord please shut up.

 

Please tell me more about Iowa State. The Cyclones are almost as interesting as Notre Dame

 

Says the guy in no position to say anything about any other college program ever.

Do tell

[abuck1220]
