Squints, I found myself thinking about that during the game. However, f the huskies, always. I don't want to live in a world where we need washington to be successful for us to be successful.
Indiana is going into half 21-10 up on a terrible Michigan State team. Despite the score, they've struggled, and it's not making the Ducks look any better. Also in the Big 10, Northwestern is blanking Purdue and will move to 5-2 unless they Coug it.
Didn’t Indiana score a touchdown on every drive of theirs in the first half?
Michigan State is like Stanford with those long clock draining drives
Maybe. I tuned in during an MSU drive and was surprised by the success over that in the next drive. Indiana figured it out, though.
Disappointed Arkansas won't have enough to upset A&M. Hopefully Auburn knocks Missouri out of playoff contention.
A USC victory would be great for us and the Big Ten, but their offensive line is starting to look atrocious against an average ND front.
What a wild finish in Palo Alto with Stanford squeaking by for a 20-13 win over Florida State. Norvell has to be on the hot seat. Both starting QB’s went out during the game. It looked over for Florida State before they converted a Hail Mary on 4th and 22 when the Stanford defenders forgot they’re allowed to jump in an attempt to break up the pass. Then with 2 seconds left and no timeouts FSU hurries to snap it but it’s a bad snap, the true freshman QB throws it up and a Stanford defender tackles a receiver so FSU gets an untimed down from the 2 yard line where they run a shovel pass which on the field is called slightly short of the endzone but it’s reviewed, but the ACC replay officials are always up to shenanigans as they called it short when it was pretty clear FSU got in. Just a weird finish but Florida State remains winless in ACC play.

Love seeing a bunch of ranked teams lose this weekend. Things are getting more interesting.
Ohio State/Indiana/Alabama seem to have separated themselves from the rest of the pack. Would be nice if we could join that tier by the end of the season. That's the only thing on my mind.

It’s always fun to see the Huskies get beat around.
It is, but we didn't want them to lose. Oregon plays Washington to finish off the year, and misses Michigan. The better Washington is at the end, the better it is for Oregon
I just don't think we need to worry about how UW does between now and when they play the Ducks. If the Ducks win out, they're set in the playoffs, no matter the caliber of opponents they're playing. I'll be happy to see UW lose as much as possible in the meantime.
I'm finding myself curious as to how the B1G tiebreakers work. While I think it's highly likely that Indiana and tOSU are on a collision course to meet in the B1G Championship Game, I'm also thinking, "What if Michigan pulls off in Ann Arbor this year v. tOSU what they did last year in Columbus?" The way I read it (https://bigten.org/fb/article/blt6104802d94ebe1ab/), if it's a situation between a 1-loss tOSU and the Ducks, it's some kind of SportSource Analytics ranking between them.
