DE Joey Bosa (Def ROY, 3x Pro Bowl, Los Angeles Chargers)

I told the wife; "The refs won't give us anything playing this losing team in their place." I believe that the refs, being human, will always help the home team if they are bad. The Illinois offensive line could not stop our defensive line, so they got "help". No holding calls. Actually got one holding call at the end when the game was well over.

No, wasn't just you. Stevie Wonder might've overlooked it, but pretty much everybody else caught it.

Not even Stevie Wonder could miss holds so bad that they're practically tackling our players.



That final holding call was essentially the refs padding their stats, so when it gets reviewed they can say "No way guys, we did call holding -- see it says so right there 8D "
Whatever, that's part of the game in the Big10. We've gotten away with a few ourselves (hello Roby)

I laughed so hard when they announced that holding. Doubly hard when I realized that there were two flags thrown. All game long, and the only hold seen by any refs is seen by two of them....with :46 left in the game.

The referee crew is working the Penn State game this coming weekend and they were making sure they're up to it. The 2 referees who threw a flag that play have been privately scolded and put on double-secret probation.

Joey Bosa named a Freshman All-American

Honorable mention all-Big Ten selection selected to two freshman All-American teams

COLUMBUS, Ohio – True freshman defensive lineman Joey Bosa, from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and St. Thomas Aquinas High School, has been named a freshman All-American today by two organizations: The Sporting News and College Football News.

Bosa, a physical and talented performer who has started nine times this season, has registered 39 tackles for the Buckeyes including 12.5 tackles-for-losses totaling 62 yards. He ranks third on the team in TFLs and quarterback sacks (6.5), and he boasts a team-high total of six quarterback hurries. He is tied for sixth in the Big Ten in sacks and he ranks 11th in TFLs.

Named the Big Ten freshman of the week after his two-quarterback sack (-14 yards) game vs. Northwestern that included his recovering a fumble in the end zone, Bosa capped the regular season with two TFLs, including a quarterback sack, and three quarterback pressures in the loss to Michigan State in the Big Ten championship game.

Bosa, named honorable mention all-Big Ten Conference, will enter the Discover Orange Bowl with a tackle for loss in five consecutive games (8.5 total TFLs in that time; -44 yards) and with at least one quarterback sack in four consecutive games.
