Baylor blowing out TTU was nice

[BIG APPLE CAT]

Watching Rutgers vs USC and Jason Bennetti has mentioned world series game 1 about a hundred times

It’s very annoying when announcers do that. Make a reference - and move on.

Howard is treated by pretty much everyone as some kind of completely pedestrian cog regardless of what he does.  He's 9 for 9 against Nebraska with beautiful deep 40yd/60yd TD passes to two different guys.  Not a word about his perfect 60yd TD pass - just effusive praise for (admittedly incredible) WR Smith.

Eddie George, hanging out in the booth, said the weakness of Ohio State's offense is that Will Howard needs to stretch the field more (this immediately after his 2nd long TD pass).  Wut?  Isn't their O line pretty terrible?

I don't think Will is the best QB in college FB or anything, but it's wild to see his great execution (aside from the Oregon faceplant) being taken completely for granted.

He was very underappreciated at KSU, too. Heck, Avery is underappreciated here.

True.  It's insane to me that Ohio State isn't passing more too, by the way.  9/9 for 167 yards at halftime.  14 runs for 30 yards.

I think that might be why

[TheProdigiousTalent]

Meh.  He's still way better than their running game (today, at least).

[TheProdigiousTalent]

Rooting for Will, but it would be amazing to see the Nubbs win this.  Plenty of blame to go around for this lackluster tOSU showing.  Line was 25.5 points...wow.  Most surprising is that Nebraska looks stout even though Raiola has been nothing special.

First Texas now tOSU games fans throwing bottles. I'm not sure you can get more classless than the big10 and sec. Shameful

They (and their coach) seem pretty entitled.  How dare you call targeting on us?  Do you have any idea how much we spent on this roster?  Disgusting.

[wetwillie]

Prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law

[TheProdigiousTalent]

There are few wastes of time that leave me feeling more empty than watching a game I don't really care about hoping for an upset that never materializes (like NU/OSU).  Would not recommend.

Ryan day and his resting bitch face with copier toner dye job is just as unlikable as they come

[nicname]

tOSU fans have always been the NFL fans of cfb

We appreciated the heck out of Howard when he won us a Big 12 title. Will do the same when Avery does it obviously.

The facial hair color is something else. It’s like he forgot there is a rinse step in the Just for Men instructions.

I mean we wanted him Howard benched at the first sign of trouble after the title and then had people saying Roberson (current) was better than the guy we replaced Howard with

[michigancat]

My real point is that people will always want the backup QB unless you're undefeated and then sometimes people still want the backup

[wetwillie]

This board has been calling for Roberson all year so that checks out

Yeah I mean that’s part of being a fan, but not really related to the point made earlier ITT that Howard is somehow flying under the radar at tOSU despite having a top ten QBR in the nation on a top 10 team.

[catastrophe]

Really not sure how to feel about BYU. I want them to lose because I’m convinced they don’t belong in the Big 12 title race, but if our only loss is on the road to a top 10 (or eventual top 5) team then obviously it makes for a pretty strong CFP resume even if we don’t win the championship game.

[wetwillie]

We want BYU and ISU to be undefeated right before we whip their ass.

[Katpappy]

Guys, this TTU vs TCU game is a crap load more fun than the boring crap I seen today.  Personally, I would prefer the Cats kick the crap out of the Squawks and I don't care if it's boring.

EDIT:  TCU wins!!!  One more is out of the running. 

[john "teach me how to" dougie]

So with TTU losing, we win out were in the Dr Pepper with another shot at BYU
