And yes, I’m still upset about UNC BBall getting away with 18 years of cheating.
Lou Nanne is an idiot. Yeah I said it. Stick to hockey Lou...
Interesting how you want call Nanne an idiot, but you drool over yourself defending Mark Parrish.
Funny that you ignore all context to make a point immaterial to the conversation. I never said Nanne wasn't nice (which is the crux of my defense of Parrish) I said his take on this is idiotic which it is. He is ignorant on the subject full stop.
But hey, if you want to die on a hill defending cheating you can definitely do so.
Do a better job at hiding your signs and changing them up. The MLB figured it out. I guarantee this is not the first time a power 5 team or I'll go farther I college football blue blood has been doing this. Michigan and Harbaugh are being the scapegoat in all this. And I'm not even close to a Michigan fan.

They cheated. They got caught. They deserve all penalties coming their way. I’m tired of the NCAA looking the other way for blue bloods. They also broke recruiting rules. But I suppose we shouldn’t care about that.

Bull. They aren't a scapegoat that is just whiny talk radio nonsense.
Your argument holds no water. MLB doesn't have a rule against stealing signs...and even if they did that isn't the problem. No one is saying Michigan can't steal signs IN GAME. (which is how MLB does it...and btw i believe Houston and Boston got in trouble for rampant stealing with technology anyways) The NCAA has made it a rule you can't advance scout the way they did. Period. The rule has been in place since I was a teenager. You want to watch game film and figure it out you can. But you are not allowed to do what they did because the NCAA deemed it a competitive disadvantage since a lot of schools can't afford to do it. This is not friggin rocket science.
By your logic my last speeding ticket when the cop nailed me I was scapegoated...because I was going the speed of traffic and we were all speeding. No I broke the law and I paid my fine.
Michigan got caught cause they were arrogant and stupid. Their coach isn't good enough to win on his own so he broke the rules and did so blatantly. He knew the rules and chose to ignore his assistants breaking them. He has a history of breaking rules and the NCAA isn't going to just ignore it cause Michigan is a helmet school. He isn't being persecuted he got caught because he was too stupid not to cheat AGAINST EVERY TEAM IN THE CONFERENCE!
There's a reason they said "we accept the 3 game suspension." That was a little too quick, IMO. My ass, Harbaugh didn't know anything.
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
Do they actually care anymore at this point? They won the West and that's what will live on in the books.
Yes, too many still care and can't recognize what the actual damn call was. Invalid fair catch is not a fair catch, both calls kill the play. They made shirts that say "It wasn't a fair catch" that are very popular. It's just embarrassing to fans who understand was happen. I feel like making shirts that say "Two yards of offense is why we lost!".
Equally as ridiculous are fans bitching about not being ranked in the AP before this week. Iowa is a bad offensive team beating the B1G West which is not good...they don't deserve to be ranked. Even now #20 is too high to me, if they should be ranked no higher than #25.
Onto the subject at hand....Iowa, B1G West Champions. Iowa is a bad offensive team but they have won nine games and won the West, I'll take an Iowa win however it comes. Iowa's defense and special teams have won more games than the offense has this season and probably last two seasons. Iowa has won nine games and have lost their QB1, TE1 and TE2, and their best player overall...I'll take it.
They get to play in Indy and probably get their arse handed to them...don't care, they get to play in Indy and it will be harder to get there in the future so I'll enjoy it.

Talk about not holding water, saying by my logic trying to compare a speeding ticket to the Michigan incident. Agree to disagree and carry on.
Montana marching band told to play less at football games (kpax.com)
Sounds like a page take out the Minnesota Athletic Dept. Fun Sucks 101. What's going to be next?!?!?! Due away with the band, so they can $ell more ticket$.
No other great place to put this, but this is the future of college sports.
If the P5 schools form their own governance it changes college hockey overnight.

There is a growing sentiment from Iowa fans that Kirk is going to hang it up. He has been super emotional in post game interviews over the last month so much so that even some Iowa media is starting to wonder this as well.
If he does, he does. He has been one the best coaches in the B1G and college football for the last two decades plus.

Kirk has had an amazing career at Iowa.
Time to turn the reins over to his son.

Ryan Day would be an avg. coach at best if he wasn’t coaching at Ohio State.
Ohio State throws the playbook away and just runs runs runs, and it works. Old timey Big Ten ball there.
A melee at the end of this game.

Urban Meyer and Ryan Day can both pound sand. For all the anti Harbaugh fans, Urban Meyer is a bigger sleazeball.
They were manhandling Michigan with running the between the tackles. They were getting by with running outside tackles cause of several holds not called.
Ok I am asking cause I legit don't know. (Cause I stopped paying attention)
If 2 loss Iowa beats undefeated Michigan they still won't make the "tourney" will they? The auto bids don't hit until next season correct?
I only ask because if that is the case it means the title game is essentially useless. Iowa would claim a Big Ten Title but (likely) no CFP birth with 2 losses since tOSU and Michigan would each have 1. Michigan is pretty much a lock so outside of pride and to spit in the face of the Big Ten they have no reason to care either. This similar scenario happened to the SEC a few years back iirc.
If that is the case...the Big Ten is praying Iowa gets curbstompped. (Aren't we all!) If not they still want Iowa to lose but it would be less of an embarrassing scenario since the Champ would at least make it.
I have said it before and I will say it again...I hate what NCAA Football has become and every year my interest dies even more. Oh well frees up my Saturdays...
The only chance Iowa has is a 0-0 game goes to OT and MI misses a FG
The autobids do not start until next year.
Down by 4 Bama with a blatant WR push off not called to throw a 31 yard TD on 4th and goal and take the lead with 42 seconds left
Great day of football so far (except for Michigan and WI winning)
Jesus the Gators have a DT that is 6’5” 435 from Plant City…bet he’s raised on that Maryland Chicken…
Iowa State/K State We got a snow game!
The rats are jumping ship. Literally.

Iowa is almost certainly guaranteed a better bowl game if they lose.
Michigan is going to pick their score...
I do not care what the outcome of the game on Saturday is, the outcome of the season with Iowa at 10-2 is all that matters to me now. They are in the B1G Championship is great and now Iowa will get a above average bowl game which is nice. It will be interesting to watch what happens in the couple post season awards that some Iowa players and coaches are up for. Phil Parker should get the assistant coach of the year though. The rest...meh.

Penix is dealing right now for Washington. I think he would look good in Vikings colors.
Oregon and Washington locked in a fun PAC-12 championship on ABC. Oregon leads 24-20 with the 4th about to start.
Go Washington... After the Gophers, UW is my second favorite FBS football team.

They've got a coach we coulda had.
Edit: I don’t intend this to start a rag session on PJ.
Final 4 Playoff:
1) Georgia - win vs. Alabama and in
2) Michigan - win vs. Iowa and in
3) Washington - In
4) Florida State - win vs. Louisville and in
5) Oregon
6) Ohio State - Needs lots of help, especially of Texas win vs. Oklahoma State
7) Texas - win vs. Oklahoma State and Florida State loses vs. Louisville.
8) Alabama - win vs. Georgia and maybe some help. Personally, Texas should get the nod over Alabama, cause they won the head-to-head.

It's cool to see a South Dakota kid do so well. His whole family is awesome. It's going to be great having them in the Big10.
