Illinois has a decent team this year; not great, but not bad. You're selling them short. It's not like you're Minnesota or Indiana.

Well, they seem to beat up on bad teams like Purdue and Indiana, but they looked terrible against every quality team they've played -- Missouri, OSU, MSU, even the win vs Northern Illinois. I dunno; maybe they're actually improving as the season moves along...

I'm not sure I consider Michigan a quality team, though. A quality offense does not a quality team make, when your defense and special teams are the equivalent of Battlefield Earth."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

I'm just saying that if the Illini can drub them 33-13 at Happy Valley, PSU is obviously ripe for the taking.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

No doubt. Michigan is also ripe for the taking. There might be over 100 points scored tonight.

Also: Sparty.

So... is it better for the only team you lost to to go undefeated, or for them to get the crap beat out of them by the team you just beat?Founder of The Glory of War, CHAMPIONS OF APOLYTON!!!

In BCS terms, clearly the former.
Nice to see this is finally becoming a normal season, as the Big 10 again eats its own. I have to admit, I was actually holding out hope that the Spartans would get through unbeaten. But, as Guy notes, they always find a way to crap their pants.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

No, just living in Big Ten country. It would be nice to see the conference's BCS rep be in a meaningful game.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

OMG. Knowing that I'm exposing myself to likely ridicule, even though I read and typed Spartans, I was thinking Trojans. Now it makes more sense.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Jesus H Titty ****ing Christ On A Pogo Stick, Michigan's defense seems to get worse EVERY WEEK. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE.

Temple posted a second straight blowout/shutout... Following up the 42-0 win over Buffalo with a 30-0 win over Akron.
The MAC is a joke and Temple doesn't belong in it
The rest of the MAC are like cupcakes to Temple.

Considering Akron is probably the worst FBS team, I'm not sure a 30-0 win is too impressive.
Oregon is up 29-17 over USC at the half and they get the ball to start the third quarter. Predictions of their demise may have been premature...Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment
