Other Games Week 9

[biggunsbob]

I still would like more then 4 teams making the playoffs. In a six team playoff top two teams could get the bye. In a 8 team playoff no one gets a bye. Two many good one loss teams will get left out in any given year. I think I like 6 because it gives the top two team a extra week to get healthy.

 

[gobluebigjon]

Yeah 6 would be better than 4...baby steps I suppose

Why did we want Wisconsin to win? IF Michigan wins out, who would we like them to play in the big10 title game?

anybody else in the West but them.

anybody else in the West but them.

anybody but Nebraska or anybody but Wisconsin? If Wisconsin, then we want them to lose

I'd rather not Michigan play Wisconsin again. It was a very difficult game and they have a very good defense. I guess if Nebraska had beaten them, then that would mean Nebraska was better, but I still don't like the idea of Michigan playing UW again.

Remember we missed 3 fgs in that game. Should have been a more comfortable win. I understand it was a close final score at 14-7, but overall I think we handled Wisconsin pretty well. Our defense can shut down their vanilla offense.

Granted I have not seen even one minute of Nebraska football so far this season. They are undefeated though, and their quarterback is a bit more dynamic. I would rather take on Wisconsin again if I had to choose. I am not sure how we would fare against Nebraska, and I know we can beat Wisconsin.

 

[Michlady]

But Wisconsin playing better than we played them too

They had some injuries on top of that

 

[Michchamp]

anybody but Wisconsin. Nebraska is/was a paper tiger.

 

[UMRules06]

Well like I said I haven't seen Nebraska play, so if people think they are a bit fraudulent then I'll glady take them on.

 

[wlvrnstlr4life]

If Nebraska beats OSU, we will be playing them in the CG, no matter the result between us and OSU.

 

[wlvrnstlr4life]

Id gladly play Wisconsih again. They cant beat us. They dont have the quarterback to beat us with. Their defense is also depleted and we had no trouble moving the ball on them when they werent depleted.

If Nebraska beats OSU, we will be playing them in the CG, no matter the result between us and OSU.

huh, I didn't think about that. That's actually shaped up to be a pretty key game, and given how the last 3 weeks have gone for OSU, I'd say Nebraska has a shot.

I didn't watch any of the NW@OSU game but I saw it was tied in the 4th Q and OSU only won by a TD.

 

[hungry]

OSU won 24-20. That game was definitely in doubt. Northwestern is decent, but should not be that close to OSU in Cbus.

 

[Gulo Blue]

OSU won 24-20. That game was definitely in doubt. Northwestern is decent, but should not be that close to OSU in Cbus.

No matter who wins the East, I don't think they can look past the BT Championship game. I don't know if you'd call it a down year, but it seems like there's more parity. Even Alabama appears vulnerable.
