Scott Tolzien is the best QB the Badgers have had since Bollinger.

Michigan wins. Contorversial call at the end but I think it was the right call. Warren had the ball craddled and had possession.

That was a brutal call though.

It was brutal because of the timing, but when you see the play, Warren caught the ball, the Indiana player tied him up, when they hit the ground, Warren had the ball craddled in his left arm and the Indiana player had his hand on the ball. The ref called Michigan possession. Warren holding the ball=possesion. Video replays couldn't prove otherwise.

Indiana fought their asses off though and I give them credit, but I still think it was the right call even though I know it hurt for the Hoosiers.

Wow Cal loses by 39 to Oregon. :o

And what is up with the Seminoles? Almost lose to Jacksonville State at home, then they go to higher ranked BYU and blow them out mercilessly, now they lose to freakin USF at home? Its pretty tough to size up this team right now.

Say it with me now: Oregon, favorites in the Pac-10. It's true. The Ducks were more physical than Cal on both sides of the ball today.

I never want to see Florida State ranked again this season, let alone in my lifetime. I hate that school.

Florida is rolling right now, but Kentucky isn't putting up a fight and Tebow is injured. We'll surely be updated every five minutes on college football's most overexposed player. (Not saying he isn't good.)

Thoughts on the week:
--I'm with liquorish on the UM/IU finish. The refs got it right. Surprisingly entertaining game that showed me more about Michigan's defense than Indiana's offense. That's as good as IU has played in a long time though and they're very young.
--Ohio State blanks Illinois a week after blanking Toledo. Toledo would be in the top 10 in the country in scoring if you take the Buckeyes game out, and the OSU DL flat-out dominated both games, as they did for 85% of the USC game. I have a bad feeling this OSU team is going to run the table, get into a BCS Bowl and lay another egg because Tressel won't open up the offense and the defense can't do it all all the time
--Ohio went toe to toe with Tennessee, losing 32-24. A 9 yard punt (partially blocked) and a missed FG late sealed our fate, a couple of drops didn't help. Very game effort and it was almost all done via the pass, a major departure for Solich & Co.
--VT just mauled Miami, Taylor looked better than Harris throwing in the rain, though the Miami OL was not good.
--I'm just stunned at Cal. WTF?!? And where has that Oregon team been all year?
--Cincinnati survived in a game where they only brought about their "C" effort.
--That LSU goalline stand was one for the ages. Fantastic!
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

I agree with the OSU statement. When is he going to learn?

Geaux Tigers....we were lucky to escape at Miss St.

Coach Mullen has improved the Bulldog offense dramatatically.
