Perdue raises chickens. Purdue raises astronauts and is up at the half vs Ohio State.

So conflicting watching this. I love watching Ohio State lose but It's better for Penn State if the Big Ten gets into the playoffs. If Ohio State loses to anybody but Michigan, it will open the door for the committee to screw the big ten again. Plus it would open the door to Michigan getting in the playoff and that would be really bad not just because i hate Harbaugh but because Michigan would get stomped.

It probably won't matter anyway. The big advantage of the top teams isn't that they have a few playmakers, it's that they have depth so they don't get worn down. That's why Penn State lost the lead 2 years in a row. They just don't have a second string on defense and they get worn down.

I expect the same will happen to Purdue. They'll get worn down and Ohio State will own the 4th quarter.

The big ten hasn't been screwed by anybody. They allowed a bad OSU team into the playoffs a few years ago when Clemson stopped a boot off in their ***.

Second, the only thing that got worn down tonight was OSU pride. Purdue put an *** beating on them. 49 Points? Maybe now all this Haskins *** kissing will slow down some.
 
Well Michigan or Ohio State can still end up with one loss and make the playoffs. We know at least one will lose when they play each other. Hopefully someone can knock the other off to save us from having to watch a Big 10 team get destroyed in the playoffs.
 
Pac 12 is all but out of the playoff already. Every team has at least 2 losses except Wash State who only has 1. I doubt they will run the table.

Clemson has a cake schedule the rest of the way and should get in.

Texas has a loss but they also have wins over USC and Oklahoma, and if they win out that would mean a win over West Virginia too. That would be 3 quality wins. But the Big 12 has no conference championship game and that has been used to exclude the Big 12 champ before. A conference championship is super important, unless it's not. The committee seems pretty flexible on it.

Notre Dame - undefeated and will be favored in all remaining games. The last game @USC could be tough. USC is having a disappointing year and that game could salvage their season. ND could play tight with the playoffs on the line and SC will be loose with nothing to lose.

Michigan/Ohio State - if they both win out and face each other as 1 loss teams, the winner will most likely make the playoff, particularly Michigan whose only loss week 1 vs Notre Dame is looking a lot better.

Whoops.

Ohio State couldn't even "own" Minnesota last week. At least Michigan has an identity with their defense.
 
This is very pleasing to me. I hate everything Ohio.

Its been good. Cavs get swept by GS, Indians get swept by the Astros, and now Ohio State gets blown out....lets keep it going.

How about sweep the Bungles and a complete annihilation of the Clowns next Sunday. That would be good.
 
Hopefully that game will shut up people about Haskins for Heisman over Tua. Although I am not sure how you throw for 470 yards and the team gains almost 550 and you only score 20 w/ only 1 turnover.
 
OSU had trouble with Indiana and Minnesota till late in the game, it caught up to them against Perdue.
