Wow Kenneth Walker!

Shit. I'm watching the Gophs on an app, and cannot switch channels fast. Walker might just have his Heisman breakout. Good for him.

Indeed.

Has MSU ever played in Big Ten Championship Game?

Against Iowa a few years back. Then went on to get destroyed in the playoffs.

 

[howeda7]

Down goes Michigan.

Wasn't Iowa 12-0?

 

[MennoSota]

I have to say the referees jobbed Michigan over and over again.

 

[Nax5]

Wasn't Iowa 12-0?

Yep. They also got wrecked against Stanford.

 

[GoForGold]

MSU must have paid the refs really well.

 

[salzie]

Yep. They also got wrecked against Stanford.

Yep. All coming back

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Has Gus Johnson ever just let a big moment unfold with the crowd reaction, eg without screaming for 20 seconds? Nails on chalkboard.

 

[GopherVotary]

Michigan wins by at least 2 TDs

A great football mind.

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Is it just me or does it look like they also went back to a standard definition camera from the mid 90s?

Yeah the exposure seemed way off.

 

[Wally]

MI MI State, what a game.

 

[Nax5]

Michigan showdown was one of the best games of the season so far.

 

[GopherWeatherGuy]

A great football mind.

This is why I don’t bet on sports

 

[GoForGold]

I wonder if Harbaugh will be saying anything about the officiating in that game? I suppose he can't.

 

[salzie]

Adrian Martinez with pick 6

 

[fmlizard]

If Iowa State loses to West Virginia will that be enough to move them into the top 5 for computer ranks?

 

[Some guy]

There seems to be a conventional wisdom-based narrative that you can't win big in modern college football if you are a run-first team.

But I wonder if we're seeing the beginning of some small, but noticeable 'back-to-the-future' trend, in which a subset of teams play an offense that vaguely resembles something from the days of Warmath, Hayes and Schembechler.

It’s already there in high school. Usually football trends work up not down

Respect to the guy trying to get that moron to knock it off

 

[salzie]

Msu fans are idiots

 

[Wally]

Respect to the guy trying to get that moron to knock it off

That moron should have had his mask on...

 

[GopherWeatherGuy]

The amazing thing is Michigan St has played in the college football playoffs and Michigan has not.

 

[Cayman]

Against Iowa a few years back. Then went on to get destroyed in the playoffs.

They also beat Ohio State in the Legends and Leaders days. That game was the origin of Urban Meyer “sad pizza.”

 

[GringaGopher]

Adrian Martinez with pick 6

Now just threw his 3rd INT.

 

[MNVCGUY]

And add another 1 score loss to Frost‘s total. Unreal.

 

[#2Gopher]

Nebraska fans blood pressure keeps going up.

 

[howeda7]

An all time bad beat...

 

[GoForGold]

And add another 1 score loss to Frost‘s total. Unreal.

But they're so close to turning things around.
