    The Florida-Penn St game was pretty good.

    Rose Bowl is about to start - I'm hoping for knock down drag out brawl. :tongue:

    Way to go BIG10.....you guys suck and are embarrassing, like in most bowl seasons. Now its up to the Wisconsin cheaseheads to salvage some respect for the conference. Even though I am a Michigan fan, I am pulling for Wisconsin to squash the frogs.

    Well, at least Wisconsin didn't embarrass itself. But I have to agree with Russ A. above. The Big Ten is NOT what it used to be. In fact, perhaps the BCS computer should adjust their ratings at the BEGINNING of the season. Because they don't even play MOST of their own conference members but often have a 40-50% SOFT opponent schedule....or dare I say cream puff?

    Could be worse... could be a Wolverine fan... :smile:

    My theory is that after the early "Bowl" successes of Iowa and Illinois, the rest of the Big 10 teams simply took their opponents too lightly... My theory and I'm sticking with it...

    And all that remain are the tatoo-gate Buckeyes...

    Go Buckeyes...

    Please...

    So far, the Big 10 has been embarrassed. I had to quit watching both Michigan games on the 1st. Teams from Georgia also proved that they didn't really deserve to be in a bowl game. I wish the eff they would replace Mark Richt already. He has failed to motivate his talent year after year. He maybe had one good year IMHO.

    Lets go SEC. For years in the south we have proclaimed to be the toughest conference in America. No one listened. I am a Miss State alum and good to see them lay a smacking on another Little Ten Team. Been a Florida Fan all my life and we will be back. Charlie Weiss will get that offense humming again and Muschamp knows defense. I have been saying it all year and I will say it again. Oregon has not played anybody. The Pac 10 was just as weak as the Big Ten this year. Auburn went through the gauntlet. Bring TCU on to the SEC. They may be the fifth best team in the SEC West. GO SEC!!!!!!

    SEC West - Auburn, Alabama, Arkansas, Miss State, LSU and thats just the west.

    I dare Oregon to bring that 4th down&9 4th down&3 mid-game crap like Xmas day to the south he'll go from hero to zero in 2 seconds.

    Well, it looks like OSU survived against Arkansas...just barely. A Big-Ten last gasp! Not an OSU fan as I'm originally from Pa. but we'll take what we can get after such a horrendous showing!

    My Hogs lost the only bowl game I really cared about this year. I will always pull for the SEC in bowl games but my feelings won't be hurt at all if Auburn loses to Oregon. The Cam Newton situation reeks.
