B1G Championship Game Thread

[AWS1022]

Beating a team with a one legged QB is suddenly a reason to get in the CFP.

 

[Storm at Sea]

I guess you don't remember '16.

Wasn't head to head. O$U got a pass.

 

[Nitwit]

Never thought we deserved the Rose. Our play against Rutgers pretty much sealed that. Wisconsin has earned that berth on the field.

The Rutgers game had no impact. We played a conservative game with our best players out. The Minnesota and OSU losses put us in this position.

 

[AWS1022]

Nice deflection. You're not very good at this.

Hardly a deflection...you asked why even play the conference championship game...my response was a direct answer to your question....when did that become a deflection?

Question about the Dr Pepper challenge. Does the $100k have to be spent on tuition or can it also be spent on whores and beer?

 

[GreatBasinNit]

Wisconsin "earned" the opportunity to even be in this game with 2 worse losses than PSU's losses, coupled with the fact that they are in the West division.
That said, yes they do look good now, whether it is due to overall seasonal improvement or just taking advantage of their opportunity...

That would be true most years. But Wisconsin played Michigan, OSU, and MSU in their crossover games. Added to the fact that they didn’t get to play Rutgers, the worst team in the conference, Wisconsin’s conference schedule was at least as tough as PSU’s schedule.

It’s true that a loss to Illinois is bad. However, Wisconsin’s three best wins (Michigan, Minnesota, and Iowa) are better than PSU’s best three (Michigan, Iowa, Indiana).

Which PSU coach is responsible for recruiting Wisconsin? Perhaps we should go there for linemen.

 

[SheldonJoe2215]

Or in the case of the current winner, can he tithe it to his church?

But their two losses would not have gotten them into this game if they were in the East.

 

[NittPicker]

They should make the halftime contestants throw real football passes instead of letting them pretend they're playing basketball.

And what's up with the big check?? That'll never fit into an ATM.

Don't talk about Jenny Taft like that.

We won h2h. We'll never play OSU in a CCG without a restructuring.

That is true. I’m just saying Wisconsin’s conference schedule was just as tough as PSU’s schedule.

Setting aside the playoff talk, Wisky is playing a helluva game. Key seems to be pressure on Fields in the pocket. Can they sustain it?

 

[NittanyLionFan]

They said it happened in our game not the Michigan game. Fields injury that is!

Yeah... that happened on the last drive. They rolled Fields out on a run and he took a tough tackle (maybe Gooney or Parsons - don't remember). Totally unneccessary for OSU to put him at risk given the score, etc., at that point in the game.

Head to head in the B10 Championship game.

Dominating the LOS. Not sure OSU has seen that before. Will be an interesting second half.

That reminds me of an old Tug McGraw quote. When asked how he was going to spend his new contract money he replied, "Ninety percent I'll spend on good times, women and Irish Whiskey. The other ten percent I'll probably waste."

Helps that Fields has one leg and can’t move.

I think that's the same technique Levis used on the red zone INT vs OSU.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

If Ohio State boot stomped Wisky, we had a chance for the Rose Bowl. But you're right about Minny. A Wisconsin win will move Minny ahead of us for any chance of a NY6.

Minny is not getting a NY6 bowl.....not this year.

 

[PearlSUJam]

Is Chase playing tonight?

Who?

 

[bdgan]

Game on!

Fields is definitely not 100% but what a catch.

 

[Storm at Sea]

Not to beat a dead horse, but both offenses are leagues ahead of PSU schematically.

 

[AWS1022]

Yeah, that one handed catch was a hell of a scheme.

 

[heckmans]

Guess you don’t want to go to the Rose Bowl.

I don't care what it does to the bowl situation, I want OSU to get beat, and badly.

 

[PearlSUJam]

Nice deflection. You're not very good at this.

Ok Ricky Bobby.

 

[BUFFALO LION]

Just curious. Is there anything Wisconsin can do to keep OSU out of the playoffs?

Yes. Win. And win big. Unfortunately, from our perspective, I'm afraid the damage has already been done wrt the Rose Bowl. We needed one of those Ohio State 50-0 wins.

 

[NittPicker]

Nice drive to start the half but they're going to need to score 40 more to hang on to the #1 seed. The LSU win was too impressive to ignore.

 

[Storm at Sea]

Yeah, that one handed catch was a hell of a scheme.

Not a single defensive player near him.

 

[phillybillyreprise]

I pity the custodial worker who is assigned to clean the press box after these two jokers. They have peed themselves, pooped their pants and climaxed. They should toss their cookies soon.

 

[SheldonJoe2215]

oh, for Christ's sake.

 

[BUFFALO LION]

What the crap was that??????

 

[AWS1022]

Not a single defensive player near him.

We had plenty of wide open receivers throughout the year and they dropped the pass or the QB made a bad throw....but those apparently get forgotten.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

Not to beat a dead horse, but both offenses are leagues ahead of PSU schematically.

Every team that played today is leagues ahead of PSU’s O schematically!

 

[wex18]

The meltdown begins.

 

[Grass]

The punter has to have money on this game.

Hahahahshsha.

 

[VaLion'92]

Screw it...I want the shot at the Rose. It's great for recruiting.

OSU struggling, even with a W, probably drops them to #2 anyway with LSU beating UGA. That means they get Clemson instead of OU.

 

[NittPicker]

Wisconsin asks, "What do you mean the game is 60 minutes long?"
