Missed calls happen in games. That's just the way it is. Every team has to deal with that. The penalty would not have ended the game. The Gophers still would have gotten another play just 5 yards back. Nebraska had plenty of time to score the game-winning field goal after the TD anyway.

Having this game on national TV on a Thursday night is great for recruiting. I don't like starting the season with a conference game but it worked out this time.

Fresno State/Purdue looks kind of interesting.

It's the type of coach this program needs. Minnesota is not going to recruit with the best in the Big Ten, not anytime soon anyway. They need that little "extra" to get past that. I'm sure Nebraska had more talent on paper but the games aren't played on paper.

Serious question: Why is Nebraska in this conference anyway? They are lucky to be in considering their academic standards. They are ranked 151st as a national university. The next lowest-ranked Big Ten school is Iowa at 83rd. "Big Ten members engage in $9.3 billion in funded research each year...

At some point, it becomes a league instead of a conference.

Is it too early for a countdown clock?

Either that or 4 divisions with a playoff for the division champions.

Even future Big Ten teams can win a bowl game.

Where's that Purdue offense Drew Brees?

That's 6 bowl losses in a row for Michigan. Feels a lot better to have 6 consecutive bowl wins.

Both teams got totally jobbed on terrible calls. Helen Keller could have done a better job reffing that game. Congrats TCU!!!

It sure feels like a field goal won't be enough for TCU.

Advantage TCU. Big Ten teams aren't built for this type of game.

Bet on the over at this point.

Well, there's no reason to try field goals at this point.
