The football following a TD. Meanwhile, it’s ok for the entire defensive team to run to the end zone act like a bunch of A holes after recovering a fumble. I was watching the game and all Higgins did was literally spike the ball. Players spike it, throw it into the stands, act like they’re putting it, pose like they’re taking a family picture but dunk it over the crossbar? It’s a fine. Pathetic.

Hoosiers showed a lot of spunk....I hate spunk. In past years they would have circled the wagons down 35-7, they kept coming at OSU. Bucks need to shore up that defensive backfield.

FSU didn’t want to lose by 50 points so they jumped at the opportunity to cancel the game.

I've really enjoyed this show and season 4 was very good - Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher get equal billing with Elizabeth II and all three actresses do an amazing job in their portrayals.
After season three I had a sense of sympathy toward Charles but after season 4 I think he may be the most insecure, pu$$y walking the face of the earth. No spine, dominated by his family - every time he tries to speak his peace, one of his family members brings him to his knees. I realize the show is dramatized but I have to believe there is some truth to the way the family is portrayed - they're very cold and all seem to miserable in their lives. Anyway, I kind of hope Charles never ascends to the throne - he doesn't seem very regal to me. Maybe that's why Elizabeth II refuses to die!
Anyway, the show is very much worth watching and Olivia Colman is an amazing actress.

I just didn't realize the record vs top 10 was so strong - 16-2 vs all top 10 teams not named Clemson is pretty remarkable. And I'm well aware of the record vs Michigan. That is remarkable as well and illustrates the huge gap between the 2 programs today. Michigan had that 2-11-1 run during the Cooper days but if you factor in that Michigan was around 16-0 vs Ohio State before the Buckeyes got their first win in the series, Ohio State has the better head to head record since the 1930's I believe.

You must not be reading many papers. Harbaugh and Franklin are getting hammered in Big Ten country and Harbaugh is a national punchline - Finebaum talks more about him than the SEC, it seems.
I also think the LSU criticism is more about the possible scandal than the down year they're having. almost the entire starting 22 from last year left - not sure many programs could bounce back from that. They're still recruiting at a high level and I would expect them to rebound. Any talk of firing Coach O is ridiculous unless it's proven he did some bad shit to cover up this latest scandal.

I would counter with Go Tigers but what's the point - FSU is as irrelevant as programs come these days. No doubt FSU sucks pretty bad...worse than I've ever seen them. It's a complete rebuild job at this point.
They did manage to beat a top 10 team in North Carolina though...otherwise NC would still be alive for a possible ACC Title appearance.
At least FSU and LSU have won some games...Penn State can't manage to do that even
Buckeyes should be glad that Indiana is a good opponent this year though...it brings some fresh air into Big 10 football.
This season is a cluster. I obviously will always cheer for OSU and it is nice to see Indiana show some life but COVID has made it a season that I hope we'll never see again. I can see players letting down their guard as their teams lose and many of the remaining games being cancelled. On the other hand perhaps coaches can use all the negativity to see who has pride and puts forth an effort despite being out of the national and conference championship pictures.

Word of advice to LSU. Self imposed bowl ban needs to be implemented for this season immediately. Yeah - don't make the mistake of taking a bowl game for a 6-6 team when you could go 12-0 next season and have a shot at the playoff. Impose that ban and move on...

You can look at this one of two ways; with 51 career wins Muschamp made $329,156 per win via the buyout OR two schools gave him $20 million to just go away. Either way, if he ever gets another head coaching gig the school that hired him better be prepared to shell out a shitload of money when they realize the huge mistake they made a couple years after the fact.

They were in 2006, going in to their regular season matchup. Voters thought they were, but they certainly weren't, as history shows.
I think we are safe if between 0 and 1 teams from the Big 10 are invited this year, leaning toward the 0.
The current players were 4-8 years old back in 2006 - that has no bearing on today. OSU has won the last 2 meetings vs SEC teams (but again, none of the players from those games are around today), Clemson has been the thorn in the side. They're 102-10 since the 2012 season and 3 of the losses are to Clemson. 2 of the games ended on final drive interceptions that could have won the games.
