That OoB no-call was complete horseshit, but man oh man did Sparty have a bad game. The entire first half was not great (1st quarter was especially bad), our ST is terrible, our corners are terrible, and the drops we had in the 1st half came back to bite us. When you're giving up 40+ though, you can't put too much fault on the offense. B10 title is technically still in play but I can't see us making it past Ohio State. It's a flawed team and I wasn't expecting us to win the whole thing this year, but it woulda been kinda nice making it to OSU undefeated.

So... whose Heisman campaign didn't come crashing down this weekend? Fournette's gone. Boykin's gone. I guess Cook is still a possibility, even with the 2 losses for his team. Is it Henry (ugh) and McCaffrey now?

As a long time MSU fan, I want to be super upset, but then I remember the 'bad years' when we would've killed for even an 8 win season. Still more games to go, hopefully we can manage another win or two and spend the near years bowling somewhere decent.

Sash! posted:Not surprised, per se, to lose to Northwestern. Ten straight games is rough. Lousy to lose after having a chance to wrap it up once and for all after coming back from what seemed like an impossible hole. Hard to feel bad about this loss. poo poo game from Hack. Good showing by the defense, Barkley is a super exciting true freshman, but Franklin continues to be a sub-par gameday coach. Despite the loss, it's somewhat encouraging to see the scores coming off some unconventional stuff (wildcat, trick plays), but Hack threw his first pick in forever and, as usual, had plenty of should-have-beens by heaving it into tight/double coverage. And, in fact, several of the nice pass plays were great catches off bad throws. Considering the fact that Penn State knocked out NW's starting QB early in the game, the fact that it was so tight was a pleasant surprise.

If they just pick the ball off the play before this isn't even an issue. The paper thin Swiss cheese secondary could only hold out for so long this season but man it sucks to lose the lead on a player blatantly taking himself out of bounds. Oh well, still plenty of football left to play and who knows what can happen the rest of the season. Hope yall are well.

I was there during the John-L years and the start of the Dantonio era and had been a fan growing up, so I know true despair; this just sucks a bit. I'm thinking 10-2 and we'll see what comes from the bowl game. edit: Detroit_Dogg posted:The paper thin Swiss cheese secondary could only hold out for so long this season yeah the secondary has been a time bomb this year, there's nobody back there at all.

I don't expect a Big 12 player to win, but the dark horse candidate from our conference is Baker Mayfield.

a rowdy mullet posted:Came to post this, that sure escalated quickly A guy who goes there posted about it in D&D: quote:Everything about the situation at Mizzou is a loving poo poo show at the moment. At the beginning of the semester Mizzou gave graduate students something ridiculous like less than 72 hour notice we were losing our health insurance. Then they tried to take tuition waivers away from grad students working quarter time, which of course, disproportionately harms humanities departments. Then the student body president got called a friend of the family on campus, which the chancellor took something like 6 days to respond to. Then the Legion of Black Collegians got called niggers by a student while they were organizing their homecoming protest. Then the Chancellor ended our relationship with Planned Parenthood that had let med students perform clinical hours at PP and gave PP doctors clinical privileges at the University Hospital, which was the only thing that allowed them to perform abortions in Columbia. Then someone drew a swastika in one of the dorms in feces.

Is it weird that I am more proud of a 4-5 team than I ever was of a team that won 2 division titles? They might be bad on offense, but... I'm just so drat happy.

Nebraska needed any of victory, but yeah, that was pretty loving silly. E: Riley requested AND RECEIVED 10 count them, ten hip-hip-hoorays from the team in the locker room after the game. That's how much this one meant to us

gently caress BIG TEN REFS, gently caress FOOTBALL AND gently caress ME. I'm normally very good about telling myself "hey, it's just sports, move on with your day" as well as "you can't blame the refs because the team shouldn't have been in that position" but WHAT THE gently caress. I was at a concert for most of this game, watching on my phone during soundchecks, and it looked like we had it in hand when I got out and went to the Walgreens across the street for a water (coincidentally there's an MSU bar right next to it that I decided against going into). Figured I'd watch the defensive stand, grab my drink and go home happy, and then this loving horseshit. I have NEVER been this angry about a sporting event or let it ruin my night. I had to call my dad to make sure he wasn't near any sharp objects but I was Guess I won't be as mad about the Ohio State loss two weeks from now.

A&M wasn't supposed to be good this year but it would've be nice if they surprised me. Also I'm glad TCU got stomped and the guy who was getting mad at people for calling them poo poo hasn't responded.
