That's a shame. Expected, but still a shame. That was 57 yards, it isn't like he missed a chip shot

Most of the tweets aren't about the kicker who attempted the 57 yarder but the starter who missed 3 fgs inside 45 yards. Doesn't make the tweets ok, but not unexpected given he cost them a very good chance at a national title appearance.

I just hope you are warming up your Big Ten chant to counter the folks down south pulling for their conference.

 

As a fan of a Big Ten school, I say go SEC, anybody but the Buckeyes.

Sorry, with my experience with osu fans through the years, I'll basically never pull for osu. Plus urban Meyer.

Meanwhile over the years SEC fans have had only pleasant experiences with Bama fans and they love and respect Nick Saban.

Lol. Awesome.

The backup for FSU, is good enough to beat OSU. He's going to be a hot commodity if he's does the graduate transfer thing.

 

 

So FSU wins, Mizzou loses tonight, South Carolina beats Auburn, MSU beats OSU and we have FSU vs Alabama for the title.

 

Huh? Maguire is a freshman. And he's actually their 3rd string. Coker was the 2nd but he's out for the year with a knee injury.

Missouri vs Auburn is going to be one exciting game.

I expect to see Mizzou put up a ton of points, it's all about whether they can stop Auburns rushing attack.

I fully expect Mizzou to win.

So I hate Ohio State because they have the worst fan base in sports, but why are people writing them off against Florida State? They may give up 40 points, but they can score 49 on them. If they score enough to beat MSU, then watch out.

 

I think it is extremely unlikely anyone would put up 49 on FSU's defense. If OSU were to win the game it'd have to be something like 20-17 in my opinion.

FSU -30 against Duke. worst conference championship game ever?

well obviously I didnt realize Coker was injured...

Lol. Awesome.

 

I never understood the whole root for your conference thing. You hate a team for 364 days a year then suddenly are supposed to root for them? No thanks.

The 2012 Big Ten championship was pretty awful.

To be fair, FSU was -21 against a 7th ranked Miami team and covered it...and has done nothing but continue to dominate since then. This is more about FSU than it is about Duke.

It's also about Duke. When had a spread been that large for a conference title game?

Not sure stop is possible, just need to keep it from huge plays. Our offense was bizarrely stagnant against a bad a&m d, but I feel good about this after mizzou held manziel to his worst game ever.

Recruiting improves with conference reputation and media exposure.

Fire Beckman already

Media exposure might be a bad thing for Illinois

Coker is just a sophomore as well. Maybe you were thinking of Trickett? He already transferred to WVU this past off-season anyways though.

As a UConn basketball fan, I used to root for the "lesser" Big East teams. But when it came to the rivals like Pitt, Cuse, GTown etc I always rooted for failure of epic proportions.

Exactly. I can root for some Big Ten teams, but OSU, Iowa, and Indiana basketball will never get an ounce of support from me.

Coaches poll hurts NIU. Surprise.

Isn't going to matter. They were already 14th in last week's BCS and UCF was 19th. No way NIU doesn't get in unless they lose.

 

It is very sad to see the coaches trying to manipulate bowl matchups with their votes, though.
