Hey, Ben Rothlisberger came from the MAC.Junior QB Tyree Jackson quietly building his NFL resume with a very solid 21/26, 325 yards and 3 TD. Cannon arm, 6'7" 245, and he's got a 12:1 TD:INT ratio through 3 games.
MAC football is still garbage, but it's nice to be 3-0.
He would've had a little more hype if he hadn't missed literally half of his sophomore season due to injury. There was a little bit of preseason buzz that he could have a Josh Allen-type rise up the draft boards if the Bulls had a strong season....great size, huge arm, athletic, small school guy. CBS had him ranked as like the 75th best player in the country on some random preseason list I saw, so he's definitely on the radar. These first few games haven't done anything to damage his case, that's for sure.
I don't have any stats whatsoever in front of me, but that sounds like a 50-50 call to me. Depends a lot on Purdue's kicker -- at or close to NFL level, or a guy who struggles from even 35-40 yards out?
Purdue has almost 500 yards of offense 2 minutes into the 4th. It’s an extremely dumb call.
worrying part of that was the review guy they have in the booth was 1000000000% positive that was targeting and could not possibly be reversed
Yeah, that wasn't targeting and I'm a Buckeye Homer through and through. I'm glad it got reversed.
Wait, college kickers aren't reliable?
wow I had to watch that 3 times to see it. That ball should have made a fart noise when he kicked it.
I don't even really like football. But the college game is a great excuse to drink and gamble with impunity at all hours of the night.
Things I’m incapable of doing:
The great part about this is it would work just as well were thngs exactly the opposite in that game.
I'm guessing they didn't parlay LSU and the under like all the smart people did.
That was insane.
Why would anybody? Has to be two Forrest Gumps seeing who can fellate Saban the most, right?
When I went to UWYO, BYU would come to town every other year for their annual game. Students used to hold up signs along the main drag in town that said “honk if you like Mormon kitty”. Not kitty.
As a fan of a team that sucks balls I feel I can be objective here. It’s a catch-22. While I think rooting for a conference is stupid, you are kidding yourself if you think OSU’s CFP chances aren’t hurt by the B1G teams losing. It may be a small amount and winning out solves everything, but it definitely doesn’t help and can hurt in a scenario where there’s multiple one loss teams.Politician Spock said:
True. But that's no reason to look at it on a game-by-game, week-in, week-out basis across the entire conference. I will watch and pull for the Pokes. And I would have liked for TCU to hang on against OSU last night--because that game could have a big impact if OU and OSU are fighting for a playoff spot this year. But I will never pull for Texas unless it directly impacts OU. And even then-I still won't like it.
Glad to see you're finally getting it. When your conference is good and you play well in it, it helps your favorite team in the standings. Not that complicated.
Glad my rival is in another conference. But I’m not sure what this doing well thing means.
Of the 7 B1G teams that lost yesterday, only 4 are on OSU's schedule. Only two of the teams that lost yesterday are in the B1G East, and they were expected to suck (Rutgers and Maryland). The B1G East is strong this year, while the B1G West sucks balls.
