Big-10 Championship Game

[Seth53]

A great big "ugh" this year.

Nebby deserves to be in it. (despite its 63-38 blow out by OSU)
Wisky @ 7-5, ugh. Losers of their last two game. Double ugh.

Yes, yes I know...PSU/OSU on probation and all of that.

But perception is what it is. Doubt I'll tune it in at all, much less the rest of the country.

Nebby was won 5 games by 6 points or less vs. MSU, PSU, NW, the mighty 2012 Hawks, and Wisky. In 4 of those games is was in the last couple minutes and there was Very contraversal calls against PSU and MSU. Good teams find a way to win, however, i would argue they arent a typical B1G champ team either.....they are hair away from not even Bowling

I hate Nebby ( i live in Omaha ) so i will be pulling for Wisky but i think either will get Smoked in the Rose.

Agree....Oregon might just score a 100.

I'm thinking B1G won't have to play Oregon...isn't it going to be Stanford/UCLA in the Pac12 championship game (which is a rematch of today's game)? I would think winner, since neither have national title implications, would go to Pasadena.

I think Oregon is a cinch for an at-large BCS game...then again, I've not been really in tune with the changes they've made the last couple years, so I could be completely wrong.

The Big 10 is useless in football.

They got away with a holding for some yards on us as well. Not saying that would have helped us win, just saying it seems as if the refs decided many games ago Nebby was going to make it to the CCG.

At least Nebraska earned their way to the game. Wisconsin winning would just disgrace the conference even more than it already is.

Meh. There were calls that went both ways in both of those games. We've had calls that went against us in game that have determined National Championships, but you have find a way to overcome those, and not let it affect the outcome of the game. I won't apologize for it.

Edit: And this exactly what the B1G is and has been for my lifetime, no matter who the champ is.

As for OSU and PSU, anyone that cries about them not getting in needs to get over it. Don't cheat and don't cover for a child rapist. Actions have consequences.

By holding, I'm assuming you mean by our DBs, because I saw your OL hold Eric Martin on more than one occasion, yet no flags were thrown. If that is what you meant, well, I have heard that all my life that the B1G was supposed to be "big boy football," too bad that the refs make calls that put the B1G into the puss league. No wonder why this league gets it handed to them when they have to play the big boys.

The Big 10 is useless in football.

Can't say I disagree.
