That's weak sauce. If you're going to go in, go all in. First Quarter targeting on a 3rd and Long is the way to go.

What happened to my ¤cash?
Good, because that’s definitely a way for our non-mentionable fund to become self sustaining. I like to keep them… errr… it under our control and to our greater benefit.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Rare Shoutout to Penn State for going down to the SEC and taking care of business! IT JUST MEANS MORE!
Re: SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)
Yeah but, does Auburn still count the game as a win too?

I know all message boards do this. Probably even BuckeyePlanet, too. But people post their own version of fax and evidents and expect everyone else to believe them.
In this case, "The Big Ten hates us!!! See??? The officials are doing a bad job!!!" Then simply list a bunch of without any real specifics, and BAM: You're a master debater.

Haha. Same thread.
Let's figure out which team embarrasses the Big Ten more:
Since 1993 season (the year they joined the Big Ten) one team is 14-9 in bowl games, with what probably should be considered a national championship, and.... not much else. When the BCS started, they went to 2 BCS bowl games, winning 1 of them. The rest in that time period were Outback Bowl, Capital One Bowl, Alamo Bowl, or no bowl at all. I count 6 seasons in the BCS era that they did not go to a bowl game, and 2 of those were because they were ineligible. I count 3 NY6 bowl games in the playoff era, winning 2 of them (one of them was against Memphis). They're 1-3 in non-NY6 bowl games in the playoff era.
In the same time frame, the other team is 16-13 in bowl games, has 2 national championships and has played for 3 others. In the BCS era, they went 5-4 in BCS games, including 1-2 in national championship games. I'm losing count so those might not be right. In the playoff era, they have made it to a NY6 bowl game all 8 years, going 4-0 in non-playoff games, 2-2 in first round playoff games, and 1-1 in national championship games. The only year they did not go to a bowl game was because they had magic tattoos that were illegal back then.
Don't tell me Ohio State embarrasses the Big Ten and Penn State doesn't.

Wanna make $14 the hard way?
The way some of these people obsess over officiating makes me laugh. There are what, 7 on-field officials who are trying to watch 22 players? There are bound to be missed calls. It's a part of the game. The officials are out there trying their best to see everything and call the game as fairly as possible. For the Pedster cult to constantly bitch about them is simply hilarious to me. Funny to me in that for a group who spent so much time publicly discrediting and insulting Jer-Bear's victims (or whatever you want to call them), they sure try really hard to pretend to be the victim when it comes to officiating......

You......uh.......left out one more embarrassing thing for Penn St. And by embarrassing I mean criminally abhorrent.

You're right and that was on purpose. I was only talking about on-field performance during the bowl games. The topic was about how Ohio State (and *ichigan, but I didn't care about defending them) embarrasses the conference in bowl games. I didn't need to bend the constraints of the claim in order to win that argument.
