Neb & Maryland combined for 28penalties for 248yds. That is the most I can ever recall...by a lot.

Star player for both teams

USC down 21-10 against a Washington team that has been flat out bad so far this year.

Chris Simms just said the SEC can relax, they are officially the best football conference in America again....I'm not convinced of that at all. Top to bottom the B1G is still #1

Well it's Chris Simms. Decide how big the grain of salt needs to be there. 

[RoadRage]

Come on Shanahan!

Nvm, Washington went back to being bad at football this year

Both teams are bad at football.  It’s a slightly better version of Purdue/Illinois

??? Maybe he should wait on them not being at best average in the playoffs before making declarations like that

Campbell time.....we need our RBs healthy for the rest of the season!

[KingPG21]

Miami wanted Demond Williams originally right? They'd be so much worse than they currently are 

[RoadRage]

If we score a TD here, I have to believe that will be it for the starters!

[Hovadipo]

Curious what “big” job Jake Dickert gets this offseason or next. That team is really good.

Yep.  Imagine they had to raise more money but definitely worth it. They would not be title contenders with Williams

Washington threatening USC with a minute left. Two 4th down conversions on the final drive.

But not three.

Switched over to watch Clemson throw a pick 6, Don't care that its a blow out. Love watching Dabo get blown out again. Dude is a clown

Agree. But I do think they are better or at least there’s no other elite teams out there. Alabama looks more physical across both lines and I think I might put them up there with Texas and UGA along with OSU, IU, ND, and Miami. I’m not sure there’s a lot that separates all those teams right now.  
 

The rest of the B1G is kinda “meh” and didn’t exactly excel in inter conference play. The SEC lovefest is annoying but they might be the better conf this year.

Per Google Gemini, not even close.

The NCAA record for the most combined penalties and penalty yardage in a single college football game occurred on October 31, 1986, in an FCS (then Division I-AA) game between Grambling State and Prairie View A&M.
Combined Penalties: 48 penalties (Grambling: 27, Prairie View: 21)
Combined Penalty Yardage: 453 yards (Grambling: 260 yards, Prairie View: 193 yards)
Grambling won the game 38–12, despite committing 27 of the penalties and accumulating over two football fields' worth of penalty yards on their own.

FBS (Division I-A) Record
For the highest level of college football (FBS), the record for combined penalties is slightly lower:
Combined Penalties: 36 penalties — set by San Jose State (24) and Fresno State (12) on October 4, 1986.
Combined Penalty Yardage: 421 yards — set by San Jose State (199 yards) and Fresno State (222 yards) in that same 1986 game.
