I'm so sick of these weak ass roughing the passer calls. I understand you want to protect the QB but my god, you can't even hit a QB anymore. That personal foul in the Ok-Texas game was a joke.

Wow, which one of these refs went to purdue. I dont think I've ever seen a fumble and recovery x-ed out after a coach complains that they should have blown a whistle.

 

And now a phantom hold taking points off the board. nice.

This UT-OU game is just hideous.

If ND beats USC today, is Jimmy Clausen the front runner for the Heisman? I know the nation and sports media has a massive boner for Tebow, but the stats arent even close. ND would be much higher ranked if it werent for their bad defense.

Sweet, should be 21-13 but instead down by 9 with the worst OC in the conference at the helm. Nice. Consider the season a failure if you lose to Purdue boys.

I would say so. Pryor is just terrible at QB.

Go Purdue!!!

 

 

Finally something to cheer about, "could" be the first time they beat a ranked team in a while.

I would say so. Pryor is just terrible at QB.

Its all on the coaching staff and the QB coach who has ZERO experience developing QB's when the #1 recruit in the country was better as a freshman.

The Big 10 is just embarrassingly bad at football right now.

I call him Terrible Pryor.

I agree. Pryor might not be the greatest passer but he should be progressing given his athletic abilities. He's really at a standstill development wise.

The same can be said about Juice Williams, although not as talented as Pryor he has regressed big time this season.

I was going to make that comparision. 2 years ago when Juice beat Ohio St, everyone was raving about him. Then because of bad coaching he doesnt progress and starts to regress.

And really if you want to know why the Big 10 sucks so bad just look at the QB play across the conference, it is freaking pathetic. Not a single guy with an NFL future. I don't understand how that happens.

What do you think about the FG there? I was thinking a for sure go for it situation.

LOL, how can you even say that? There are so many underclassmen playing QB in the conference it would be moronic to say that at this point. Do you know how many NFL QB's dont develop until even their senior year?

Terrible, just like the play calling in the red zone. 5 TO's and 2 scores called back are going to kill you every time, mix in the terrible play calling, the horrendous play by the QB and WR positions and I would take OSU out of the top 20.

Because I watch them play. The QBs in this conference suck. I should make clear that I meant that no one will be worth a damn in the NFL but I'm sure a couple of guys will stick in the league as 2nd or 3rd string QBs considering how awful 3rd string QBs in the NFL can be.

Do you realize how ridiculous of a statement that is? How many NFL starting QB's did you accurately predict would be starters when they were underclassmen? I am sure you took a look at Jay Cutler and said, wow THAT guy is going to be worth a damn, that Joe Flacco is THE man. Come on, its extremely hard to predict NFL success at the QB position, especially based on college performance.

There are 3 underclassmen in the Big 10 playing QB - Tate Forcier, Pryor and Kirk Cousins. Forcier is going to be a really good maybe even great college QB but he doesn't have the size to play QB in the NFL (unless he becomes Doug Flutie II). Pryor almost certainly will never have the accuracy to be successful in the NFL (see Vince Young). Cousins just isn't any good and doesn't have a great arm. Out of the upperclassmen in the Big 10 - Elliott, Clark, Juice, Kafka, and Chappell just clearly don't have what it takes. Tolzien and Weber are mediocre at best and don't show great accuracy or great arm strength. Stanzi is a pretty good college QB and will play in the NFL but a success in the NFL, not going to happen.

 

Cutler started all 4 years at Vanderbilt and outside of his freshman year put up good numbers and he also could make throws that very very few QBs can make. There is no one in the Big 10 like that (that is currently starting anyways).

How fitting for the game to end on a flag. The called back fumble and the phantom hold loom large as Pryor decided to get his head out of his ass in the last 7 min. Terrible embarrassing loss for you Tressel. Maybe you'll finally give up play calling.

Stanzi? Really? Iowa's success is almost entirely because they have a ridiculous defense. Stanzi as a pro? Yeesh.

As a backup probably. That is why I am so certain that no Big 10 QB will have success in the NFL. They basically suck across the board.

Barkley looking tough early.

 

That right tackle for Minny is a monster BTW.

Clausen has the yips.
