Your Week 2 B1G Open Thread - 11 AM Edition
Ted is still on special assignment, so I get to kick off your football viewing for the day. It's an important B1G week. We can't afford three losses. Much like Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Ohio State's season, anything less than 10-2 is a failure. But first, a musical prayer of remembrance and hope.
Hard to imagine that we're all ten years down the road...
Five early games on the slate. Enjoy them all..
| Visitor | Home | TV | B1G Site |
| South Dakota State | Illinois | BTN | Hail to the Orange |
| Iowa | Iowa State | Fox Sports Net | Black Heart Gold Pants |
| Oregon State | Wisconsin | ESPN | Bucky's 5th Quarter |
| Florida Atlantic | Michigan State | ESPN2 | The Only Colors |
| Toledo | Ohio State | BTN | Along the Olentangy |
Come on in and have a seat. If you're new to our open threads, the rules are simple: No racism, no sexism, no homophobia, no pornography, no personal attacks, and no illegal internet streams of the games. There's beer in the fridge, we've got wings, we've got burgers and brats on the grill, and the legal minds are in the other room talking about the merits of any Iowa State legal action against Texas A&M and the SEC.

I'm feeling pessimistic this morning
I think Penn State, Indiana, Purdue, and Michigan all go down.
Yeah
those are all going to be tough games.

I don't think Virginia is as dismally bad as the last few years
They’ve gone from horrible to just sort of below average. Indiana on the other hand…
The one thing in Penn State's favor
is that they have little to lose and everything to gain. If they lose, they aren’t hurt in the conference race, and if they win…well…
More proof that the B1G has better access
I’m just outside DC. I don’t get the Auburn-Miss State game. I do get Northwestern-EIU and Illinois-South Dakota State though.
Apparently my cable provider does not allow me to use BTN2Go.

They've played Purdue tough the last two years, and won last year.

stopped them from humming along so it should be an auto first down. I’ve stopped trying to figure out rules a long time ago. It’s only ends with me getting angry and drunker.
