Them 14 The school up north 14

I always wondered where Urban Meyer got the "team down south" referring to the parochial nerds from Provo, UT when he was the Utes head coach. :)

Must have watched a different Gameday than me because he clearly said OSU.

I notice you left the Big XII completely out of your conversation..

Because I am afraid to shoot my big mouth off about Texas. You play real football in the Big 12.

Ha! A good honest answer.

Fair enough.

I watched the 2nd quarter of the Gopher game today on the treadmill. The ESPN Classic crew gave some credit to Tiller and Purdue for introducing the spread offense to the Big 10, but Minnesota is a fairly young team if memory serves (you can fill us in on that if you choose.) Sure can’t go wrong with 7-1 with the only L being to Ohio State. :)

They've got a halfway decent shot at 11-1. They get Northwestern (who lost to Indiana, whom the Gophers beat) at home, and they'll probably be rated about even with Michigan (home), Wisconsin (away), and Iowa (home).

You always know how important football is in a given state when you watch FSN Southwest and you see an entire hour is devoted to Texas HS Football. Not that I disagree with it, but still...

I guess I should have inserted the sarc at the end of that.

I just watched the pick piece online, since I wasn’t home to see it. It seems to be a OSU sweep if they have anything to say about it.

I think tonight will provide a showcase of how good OSU’s D Is. I think they step up, hold the Nittaly Lions to 14 or so, and win in the 17-14 range.

Texas up 28-14 as huge penalty against OK State gives the horns a TD.

We've got high school stadiums bigger than some Div. I stadiums.

BTW, OkSU just scored. 28-21 UT over OkSU. 3:43 remaining in the 3rd.

Not even a contest. It’s the Big 12, and everyone else.

Well, if we can just hold them one more time. A little advice to any young readers, don’t follow Ok. State. It is bad for your health. At least in Football. The Wrestling team is uniformly awesome.
