Re: *** Official College Football Week 8 Thread ***
I am in complete agreement damaniac;
it should never be allowed to miss both Michigan and Ohio State in the same big10 season. It sucks how often the easier big10 schedule has had such a huge influence in the race. Unavoidable under the current number of teams and desire for non-conference home games for revenue. It's still a point of pride in Champaign that the '83 Illini have the best big10 conference record ever at 9-0. I hope the big10 could goto 9 games with the 12 game schedule now, like the pac10, but an odd number of games doesn't work with an odd number of teams (silly math). Probably too mean to kick N'Western out, as they rarely compete in football and never compete in basketball.
This is the 4th time since the big10 has had 11 teams that Purdue missed both Michigan and tOSU in the same season...wow!
Oh yeah, I expect the Wolverines defense to completely pummel Iowa.
I'm actually very unexcited about this week's slate of games.
ACC comment: beware Miami coming up with a huge conference comeback.
