Congrats to Penn St. for going to 5 overtimes at home vs Illinois. 

[Jockey]

Wisconsin favored on the road against Purdue. I just don't get it.

Same here. Mertz is their worst starting QB of at least the last 20 years.

I'm too lazy to look it up but he may score more points for the opponent than he does for his own team.

Did Bielema eat one of his players?

[MuggsyB]

LOL.  Penn St.  loses at home to Illinois.

[Jockey]

Mertz can't even handle a one yard drive. Had tons of help from Chrystal, though.

Funny thing is that this terrible uW team was as good, if not better than PSU.

Did at Arkansas

[MuggsyB]

Did at Arkansas

Oh...thanks.  Was it like an adult "A Modest Proposal" meal but literal and not satirical?

Battle of offensive ineptitude.

Battle of offensive ineptitude.

Worst 9 OT game of all time.

[CreightonWarrior]

Mertz can't throw a 4th quarter interception if he doesn't throw the ball

5/8 baby

Battle of offensive ineptitude.

one of the best games of the year. Fun to watch and man, Illinois came to play today. I think the NFL should adopt the mandatory 2pt conversion model. It's basically penalty kicks, love it

[MuggsyB]

Iowa was the #2 team in the country?

LOL.  I'm just going to assume the entire B14 is overrated.

Sparty beating little brother isn't news anymore.   

[The Sultan]

Wisconsin still controls their Big Ten title destiny.

I doubt the B14 would ever want to change the division setup. It usually gives a needed boost to a 1 loss East division champ and helps them get to the playoff. But god does the setup suck for fans who just want to see the best championship matchup possible. Four teams in the east are better than whoever wins the west. And it's not an anomaly, they're just stronger programs.

Another Jim Harbaugh choke job.

[4everwarriors]

They'll play whatever their masters tell them to.

And I think you are by and large wrong that they do.

What we all know they really give a shyte about is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ ... but if it's central to your argument that they really care deeply about the welfare of their unpaid employees, knock yourself out!

Then, don't accept the scholarship if you don't want to participate, aina?

They need to play in the feeder league first.  The NFL doesn't want to have a developmental league because college football does it for them. 

[Herman Cain]

Badgers with a solid win today.

I guess you were so bored you decided to dig something up from months ago and then make an inane comment about it, nu?

[Billy Hoyle]

first playoff ranking is out. Georgia #1 is a no-brainer, Alabama #2 is iffy, MSU #3 won't last, Oregon #4 is iffy as well. Cincy #6? The committee just needs to say "non-Power 5 need not apply" here.

Cincy needs Georgia to beat Bama in the SEC title game, MSU or Ohio State to win out, eliminating the other (OSU should beat both MSU and Michigan on the way out) to get into the top 4.

Cincinnati ain't getting in

[Mr. Nielsen]

Go back to the old way (polls) or start a real playoff.

Wisconsin, Iowa are ranked. Minnesota lost to Bowling Green is ranked. These three are in while UTSA, Houston, SMU, Louisiana and Coastal Carolina are not.
