Money. The Big Ten has a TV channel and deal with ESPN or whoever worth a gazillion dollars. It also gives teams like Ohio State a creampuff that counts towards an in conference game for playoff purposes or whatever silly math is used now to determine a ranking. I think adding Rutgers opened up the northeast market for TV purposes or sales or whatever. This is about money. Watch other conferences emulate this in the next few years.

Hmmm...other than his pride, I didn't see any injuries VS Iowa.
Gophers senior quarterback Mitch Leidner is listed as out on the team's depth chart for Maryland.

State has always vexed Clemson. Glad to see Clemson come away with the win.

Oh man. Watching Nebraska/Iowa and Husker QB Tommy Armstrong took a nasty hit. Dad and girlfriend brought down to the field. Took him out on the backboard, he never moved a muscle till he was being carted off and gave a thumps up with his strapped down hand.
Scary shit.

Watching LSU and Bama...WOW!!!
So, while it wasn't a fun game to watch- THE Ohio State university did exactly what they needed to do, and what the need to continue to do. Win huge, look good, and beat that team up north to close the season out.
More so than anyone in the top 8, they control their own playoff hopes.

LOL at TAMU.
I have no clue why they were in the Top 4 in the CFB. Thankfully, they got knocked out of that spot immediately.
Strength of schedule.
Coaches and writers polls are a load of crap.

I don't care about college football. My university team has been undefeated since 1897.

Meet the Golden Gopher's new football coach.
My only concern is that he reminds me too much of Tim Brewster with all that "row the boat" shit...
P.J. Fleck takes on Gophers job: 'I am here to change the culture'

Quarterback Tanner Morgan, linebacker Trenton Guthrie, defensive end Esezi Otomewo, receiver Chris Bell and defensive tackle Noah Hickcox have flipped their recruiting decision from Western Michigan to Minnesota to follow head coach P.J. Fleck.
“After much prayer and discussion with my family, I am happy to announce that I have received an offer from and will be committing to the University of Minnesota,” Hickcox wrote on Twitter. “I love Western Michigan and all it has done for me but it has been a life long dream of mine and a promise that I made to my dad that if the opportunity came where I could play the sport I love in the B1G conference I would take it. I would like to thank everyone who has supported me, and helped make my dreams come true. Thank you.”

I neither like nor dislike either team, but I was happy to see Clemson win. I am sure Watson would prefer the national championship to a Heisman, and his second half performance is making Heisman voters rethink their decisions.
