I admit, I seldom visit there, but still crazy not enough chatter there.

wow that is something else, just how they drew it up for 4th and 32 i assume

7 laterals i think i counted, a key one being number 71 two-handed just chucking over his head across the field (while they are like three hoosiers hanging on to him!)

hawkeyes lose again, close but thanks to turnovers from northwestern

our offense stinks, oline is solid and there is plenty of talent at the skill positions (for once) but our qb isn't making it happen. i knew he would be the key since he's a first year starter and we'd go as he goes - and he's not going so far. there are some flashes but he just throws the ball way too hard, lot of passes that are way too difficult to catch - needs to develop some touch

OK St really blew that game against TX with 4 turnovers and a terrible roughing the kicker call on 4th and 22 giving Texas a first down.

Kills the Big 12's chance at a playoff spot.

Helps the PAC 12 in that regard though, even though I don't imagine anyone will be as good as OK St, who looks legit and would have killed TX without the turnovers...really outgained them in the game.

That loss is what BYU really needed if they have any hope of the playoff, now they just need to finish the season undefeated and hope the SEC only has one team that’s either undefeated or has one loss

Who is BYU's toughest game? They also need to hope no PAC 12 team goes undefeated. Also, even if OK St wins out, and say, TX wins out but loses to OK St in the Big 12 championship, they could still have a chance. What sucks for them is they are clearly really good, far better than Texas, and they could lose that game.

Also, Clemson and ND could make it, because whoever loses will have a loss to a top 4 team. Then you still have Ohio St and Wisconsin undefeated. Then there is Cincinnati, who is and ranked higher and still plays Houston and UCF.

However, the PAC 12 rarely has an undefeated team, but they also usually play more than 7 games.

BYU has beat Houston already this season, and they will be playing Boise State next week which is a huge game. They’ll also be playing San Diego State. They’ve already destroyed Navy as well.

The cards need to align perfectly for BYU to get in, I know that for a fact, but OK State already losing is the big first step :)

UGA will have to put up some points against this Gators team, 14 points won’t be enough.

Sucks to see Harbaugh getting humiliated like this, I’m still a fan of Jim.
