This Indiana/Iowa game is a great one.

Ya, it really is. Badgers are just killing people, they could easily win out.

 

[Crothian]

Iowa loses, Georgia has two second before their loss.....

 

[Dimwhit]

Too bad Boise isn't playing until tomorrow night. Playing today and winning looks like it would bump them a couple/few spots in the poll.

Any reason they are playing tommorrow night? I saw that and it's kinda wierd.

Ohio State is looking like an unstoppiable machine again this week. Ginn ran a punt return back for a TD and that ties the Big Ten record and one away from the NCAA record. I didn';t realize he was doing that good with those.

I have no idea. My impression was that it was an ESPN thing. They wanted to do a Sunday night game. Maybe to test it out. Though why they'd pick a Boise State/New Mexico State game is beyond me. But I don't think it was something initiated by BSU or NMS. Maybe the WAC.

But with Sunday night NFL, I just don't see why they're bothering. And it messes up Boise for the first BCS poll, since the game tomorrow won't be factored in. At least not completely.

Well, WV isn't exactly dominating Syracuse so far today. Though they'll probably run away in the second half.

And the truth shall set you free.

Just remember, Syracuse is the toughest team they play.

If they get past Louisville, then we'll talk.

My guess is they went to a smaller school that would want primetime nationally televised game. Sure, it is up against the NFL but it is better then not being seen.

I seem to recall having this conversation before with Crothy about the same thing... I'm not worried. I've yet to see anyone stop White or Slayton. Those guys are the motor on the offense.
