    I saw Dan's post and completely forgot about Oregon. You are correct to tell me to go Duck myself.

    LOL Michigan State.

    They kick a game-tying 42-yard field goal with 6 seconds remaining. Crowd’s going nuts. Refs throw a flag, huddle for a long time, and the announcers think it was a celebration penalty. Then the refs says they’re picking up the flag because they thought there were 12 men on the field, but changed their mind.

    Then they go to replay, and sure enough, Michigan State had 10 guys lined up to block for the kicker and holder. Kick nullified, and the 47-yarder is not even close.

    Of course MSU had no business being in that position
    Penalties killed them before that
    Offense looks as bad as last year’s
    What a shitshow

    Adding insult to injury for MSU...

    On replay, ASU committed an obvious penalty on the line on that final kick. A guy was running up as it was snapped, hurdling the line. Should have been a 15 yard penalty and rekick.

    One of those games where it's a shame someone had to win.

    Can't cover a 14-point spread if you can't score in double digits.

    The Pac12 deserves all the crud it gets - but the ACC is just as much of a mess (Clemson excepted). And the SEC is no great shakes either after Bama and Georgia.

    Granted LSU is not blowing out Northwest state right now, but I would say the Bayou Bengals are legit.

    Also, screw the ACC. It is Clemson and a bunch of stiffs right now. I hope the national press gives them hell this week after the Georgia Tech lost to the citadel, va tech almost lost to Furman; and BC and Maryland shit the bed

    Maryland is in the Big Ten, but the others have no excuse.

    That 4th-and-1 FG might have been the single worst coaching decision I've watched live. There's no universe where that'd be a reasonable thing to do.

    Florida State just played its best third quarter of the year.

    And then gave up Virginia’s tying TD at the start of the fourth.

    Still not sure why, after getting a first-down catch around the ASU 25 and spiking the ball, MSU didn't run another play. They had 11 or 12 seconds left.

    Instead, they rush the kicking team onto the field to beat the play clock (no timeouts left) and sure enough, had an extra guy out there.

    That's on Dantonio and his coaching staff.
