Oregon should not be #1 in my opinion, Wisconsin only had about 200 yards of offense and almost beat them!

Who should or shouldn't be number 1 doesn't matter if we keep on winning. We control our destiny.

Wiscy got hosed on a huge BS chop block call.
Rather than a first down, and continuation of a drive,  they had to punt from their end zone giving Oregon great field position. Total screw job but Wiscy held them to a FG. 16-13 with 2:30 to go with Oregon getting ready to kick-off to the Badgers.

I liked the “ illegal motion on the defensive line” call on a simple shift.  To be fair each team had it called once but B1G refs gonna B1G ref

Jayhawks going to work tonight. No way BYU can survive again right?

[Hoosierfan1901]

BYU is about to go down

[Hoosierfan1901]

Victory formation for Kansas, although BYU has 2 timeouts and is using them

[Hovadipo]

Good work, Jayhawks. Much obliged. 

[Hoosierfan1901]

Down goes BYU

[TheWatShot]

Jerry Palm had BYU at #2 this week. lmao

Now we hope Colorado wins the BIG 12 title game so BYU misses out, right? Because I could see them trying to get Colorado in…

That’s a horrible loss for BYU and a week after they were gifted a W against Utah.

[TheWatShot]

This would be SO much funnier if I could get the video to post here, but...

 

Every time I think Purdue has exhausted all realistic opportunities for embarrassment, they find another way. A receiver caught a potential touchdown pass behind the pylon because he didn't realize he was out of bounds. How did that happen? Because Purdue was somehow dumb enough to paint the end zone grass the same color as the grass surrounding it. 

 

It's 100% basketball season now in West Lafayette.

Colorado won’t make it unless they win the conference title game. They’d have 3 losses if they lose. Today clinched only 1 Big 12 team I think. 1 Big 12 team, 1 ACC team, 1 G5 team, ND (unfortunately), and then the Big 10/SEC.

In this scenario, B1G and SEC should both be happy. I like it and hope that’s the case.

That scenario would give the BT and SEC a total of 8 slots. The SEC will only be truly happy if they get 6 of those slots.

This is a nightmare scenario I can’t get out of my head. The 6 SEC teams win out besides A&M beating TX, making them all 2 loss teams. ND, PSU and OSU win out as well. We lose next week in that scenario obviously. You’ve got Oregon, SEC champ, ACC champ, B12 champ, G5 champ, and ND as locks. OSU and PSU are in ahead of us. That leaves 5 spots for IU and 4 two loss SEC teams and the 3 loss SEC team who loses their championship game. I don’t want to be IU on selection day in that scenario.

IU's OL will protect Rourke.  IU's DBs and cornerbacks will not back off as much against the pass.  Mess with their QB...game is IU's to win.  OSU does not have what it takes to be the best of the best.

We are in it to win it.

 

(I hope.)

[maharkn]

BYU at this point is conference title win or out. Big 12 will only get one team in. I think IU must beat OSU to get in. If not Georgia will take their spot

Might as well have hope, why not. But road game against top 3 talent in the country. Coaching advantage goes to us. I think so long as we don’t get blown out we make the playoff so I’ve got low expectations on this one.

The SEC and ESPN have a self serving relationship. IU needs to win Sat or keep it close.
