We Might Not Get Annihilated

well, if OSU is kept out of the BIG10 championship game, maybe they can delay the game a week

lol wow...were going to end OSU chance at a national title game. fucking funny.
 
OSU fans are talking about playing MD or getting the Big Ten to waive the minimum game rule.

I was listening to ESPN U and the commentators were saying that if there is another BIG 10 team without an opponent this weekend, they could possibly change the schedule. Makes sense.
 
Worst thing out of all this is Harbaugh will keep his job. I think some of us said this exact thing would happen weeks ago.

I read Purdue or Indiana again.
 
It's absolutely ridiculous how much the league is going to do to cater to those fucking scumbags. They're either going to setup another game or waive the 6 game rule. 2 of the games they missed were their own fault and as much as I'm sure they think that this is Michigan dodging an embarrassing loss who is to say it wasn't gamesmanship on their part giving themselves a 2 wek bye heading into the game. Fuck OSU. They didn't meet the requirements, they should be out.

I think the league would cater to any team that was in this situation. It's not about OSU, it's about the extra $ the Big10 teams would get if a member gets into the playoffs. I heard anywhere between $500k-$1M. Every athletic dept. is making financial cuts due to the pandemic...they just want the $$$. They would do it for UM, IU, or any other team in this situation.

I don't normally like to take Alvarez's side but you can easily make the case that it's the league's fault that OSU is getting screwed. It's also their opponents fault more than theirs - wasn't each cancellation due to a spike in cases for their opponents, not them? They wouldn't be in this position if the B1G hadn't panicked and delayed the season, putting the entire league behind the 8 ball.

When people say it's a rigged game when they change the rules, which rule change are they talking about? the one that cancelled the season before it started? the one that reversed that and said it would be delayed and shortened? or the one they're considering that says it's beyond stupid to send a team that OSU basically dominated to the Championship game because that team got to play 2 more .500 or worse teams than the Buckeyes did? It's hard to take all the whining seriously when these same people act like a bunch of entitled hypocrites when the rigged game works out in their favor as it so often does.

If they hadn't panicked and caved to all the pressure, OSU would already have 6 games under their belt by now. Plus of those 3 cancelled games, weren't they all because of outbreaks for their opponents, not for OSU?

OSU cancelled the Ill game
MD & UM cancelled the other 2
 
Playing enough games to be a contender for the national title....Good team problems.

Meanwhile Michigan and MSU fans sitting here wondering if we can be invited to the PornHub 4000 backyard bbq bowl.

That sounds like a good time.

Let?s make it happen.
 
I kinda feel like it's only a matter of time before there is a PornHub Bowl

Tis the season for made up bowl game names! It's my favorite part of bowl season because the games suck.
