Ho hum, another Big Ten overhyped matchup, another comfortable Ohio State win.

Well it was competitive until the 4th quarter.  Everything fell apart for PSU in the 4th quarter.  

[HarryDoyle]

Well things sure escalated quickly after the battle for Michigan. It was pretty ugly and the Big Ten needs to crack down on MSU hard and not just pay lip service how they take things like this seriously.

[HarryDoyle]

WOW! LSU goes for the two point conversion in overtime and ends Alabama's chances for a national championship, if not a playoff spot.

[Jim French Stepstool]

That Bama-LSU game might go down as the game of the year in CFB. Real edge-of-your-seat stuff.

That's one of the two things I came away with regarding non-Badger games today. The other is that, despite Michigan State winning, Mel Tucker is none too bright.

That last drive for MSU might be the worst clock management I have ever seen. To allow a delay of game to happen with 3 TOs in that situation was beyond stupid. Then to throw an incomplete pass while Illinois had no timeouts and hand them the ball with over a minute to go would be a fireable offense if they had lost that game.

I'd like to see Jake Moody in a Packer uniform next year to succeed Mason Crosby.

If you had to make a top 10 Diva coaches list PJ Fleck would be right near the top.

He is such a phony.

Spencer Rattler is such a bizarre prospect. Went from the consensus best QB in the 2022 draft, to falling off the map....and now hanging the game of a life on #5 Tennessee.

I'm not sure "phony" would be the right term.  Self-promoting hype machine...yes.  But I've gotten the feeling that he is a what-you-see-is-what-you-get type guy.  Just a really annoying one...

He was in my mock draft until he decided to return to school.

Nebraska working on blowing a 24 to nothing lead in Iowa.

Rattler seems like just an obnoxious human being. I've seen videos where he's talking about how his WRers make him look bad, he's talking down to his teammates.

Doesn't seem like he's a real leader. Looks like all the physical attributes are there, but it seems like there are a whole lot more than 32 people physically capable of playing the position. Maybe he'll mature.

Ironic Ohio State is losing because of big plays, essentially what they’ve done to the rest of the Big10 for the last 10 years.

[HarryDoyle]

DOWN GO THE BUCKEYES!!!

Michigan absolutely gashed the Buckeye defense with the run game in the fourth quarter.

[wildcat83]

Almost feel like that loss puts OSU on the outside of the playoff picture.  A single score loss maybe they still get in, but losing by 22 points at home is a bad look.

[young guns]

Absolutely nobody wants to win the big 10 west it seems.  Iowa failed to clinch, and bow Purdue just needs to win and are losing to Indiana.  I have no clue who wins in either of the 4 team tied scenarios, but I know it's not us.

Im not so sure. Georgia and Michigan are pretty much auto-locks at this point. TCU would easily have a spot if they win their championship game (though that will be no easy feat). However, that 4th spot is a bit fuzzy. LSU is the #5 team…but beating Georgia is a big ask. If they can they would jump OSU despite the two losses I would think. USC is a one-loss team and will need to beat Oregon. However, OSU dominated all year and only lost to a playoff team. I don’t know that should make them better.

I wouldn’t be shocked if OSU still holds the #4 spot…and honestly, they should. I think LSU is the only team that should jump them to get in…if they can win out.

my favorite part of that game was the sad faces on the OSU fans afterwards

I feel like OSU needs LSU and USC to both lose.  Which is entirely possible.

Or TCU. Who really hasn’t dominated anyone in the Big 12. I don’t know who they play…but them losing is pretty plausible.

Why are there divisions in college football? Shouldn't the conference championship be the #1 vs #2 team? Or is the purpose to give the playoff team an easy game?

All I know about Wilson is he is VERY polite and respectful of his elders...particularly his mothers friends and then he said he didn't let his D down. Oh, and his family is rich and his GF is...?

Think purely because conferences are too big for everyone to play everyone.
