  1. I hate to say it, but whoever makes the Rose Bowl out of the Big Ten is likely to lose, Iowa or not. USC and Oregon are both very, very good teams and I'd expect them to handle Iowa or Penn State.
  2. Not as ridiculous as Tennessee will look tonight in orange pants and black jerseys. I think that will look cool. Just will be a step down from their orange tops.
  3. Just thought of Duke at Notre Dame, November 2007. Apologies to all Big Ten fans, because that one pretty much takes the cake.
  4. I'm trying to think of the last time a worse matchup of two teams has been on national network television than Michigan at Illinois today. 6-9 combined record (1-8 Big 10 record).
  5. Georgia coming out in black helmets, which look ridiculous.
  6. I'm not either. Their best win right now is a sloppy one over Oklahoma in which the Sooners played horribly.
  7. Not that it was a ridiculous thing to post at the time, but... I'd still be nervous of him though if I was a Iowa fan. The guy throws INT's left and right all over. Game still not over yet. I am hoping for a Iowa victory though, becuase the wife's family is from Iowa. He threw all of what 9 last year. Stop extremely over exaggerating. He's not a very good QB but coming into this game he wasn't an interception machine either. He had 8 in barely a half-season entering this game and has 13 now. That's quite a few interceptions.
  8. Bad as the refs have been, it really doesn't matter if IU continues to play like this.
  9. That must be a nice luxury. If PSU goes 11-1 they will deserve an at-large bid.
  10. Seriously, where the hell is everybody on that play?
  11. you owe me $20, can't speak for derwood. this doesn't really matter frankly; penn st is making a bcs game either way if we win out. Shouldn't have to, if both Iowa and Penn State were to tie in 1st place since Iowa beat Penn State. Iowa hold the tie-breaker, don't they? The B10 (ridiculous) tiebreaker is whoever has been away from the Rose Bowl longer. Iowa wins that anyway.
  12. Everyone's wrong but you... HAHA STANZI!!! Everyone else is rooting for Indiana. I really couldn't care less. I mean I'm rooting for Indiana now, after those calls. But I came in neutral.
  13. Ricky Stanzi wants no part of the Big Ten referee charity.
  14. HAHAHA, not even close. Unreal.
  15. Haha, that personal foul was predictable.
  16. "Ruling on the field stands." :) It wasn't a catch at all.
  17. Jesus, Stanzi.
  18. rofl. really? Maybe they do, maybe they don't, but this is happening way too often lately, especially with the SEC and Big Ten. Perception is reality and whether or not it's true, people are starting to believe that these conference refs are purposely aiding the top teams to keep alive the conference's hopes of title-game $$.
  19. Conference referees have to go. They have to.
  20. It'll stand, his right foot touched.
  21. Wow. Incredibly lucky bounce for Iowa off a good play by the D-line.
  22. A blitz on 3rd and 8 in your own red zone with 15 seconds left in the half puzzles me.
  23. Holy [expletive] Iowa, are you kidding?
  24. Pac-10 doesn't need a conference championship since each team in the conference actually plays every other team. NCAA rules prohibit title games unless you have 12 teams in the conference, which no one ever pays attention to when they start yammering about conference title games (which are dumb anyway).
  25. I don't recall a big "Big Ten is better than Big East" argument last year. More along the lines of "Big East isn't as good as people think and Big ten isn't as bad. " I mentioned the tourney because everyone based the Big East = best conference ever stuff based on their top end teams, and they wound up striking out with them. They had four teams in the Elite Eight and two in the Final Four. No one made the final, but Pitt might have if Nova hadn't upset them - I think the Panthers would've had a good shot at UNC. MSU/UConn was a close game. I wouldn't call that 'striking out'. It wasn't setting the world on fire, but half the Elite Eight and half the Final Four is a pretty solid tournament performance. But, after the hype job the Big East got last year I expected that. Hell the Big ten got two teams in the Final Four in '05, in case you forgot that was another one of the down years for our conference according to the experts. Too many "experts" have agendas. As a Notre Dame football fan who listens to his team get trashed year after year on ESPN because most of our games aren't on that network, you don't have to tell me twice.
