After the game ended I realized the best thing that could have happened to TCU was the non defensive pass interference call. Bc if it was called, they march right down and score and Dana would have been in attack mode that last drive and probably scores .

Braxton do a Russell Wilson and transfer somewhere. It can't be easy as a coach watching your #2 guy flourish and make himself a legit #1 while your injured starter is out for the year. Something's gonna have to give this offseason.

BM5 is done. Either convert him to another position or tell him to transfer.

It makes absolutely no sense to tell JT to go back to the bench for one year of Braxton.

JT is the future of Ohio State. Meyer knows it..

He hasn't looked good against the only two above average defenses he's faced so far this year.

You'll see. This team is getting better and better each week.

Gibson commits to OSU

Art Briles went thru the same growing pains and now he has that train rolling.

Speaking of which I still think TCU is a better team than Baylor today. Neutral site TCU is a favorite, in Fort Worth they're double digits better.

Baylor at TCU would not be getting double digits unless Petty is down and out

Glad to see my bro, and tag some Slutgers tail.

ROSEMONT, Ill.  – The Big Ten office today issued a public reprimand of Maryland football head coach Randy Edsall and student-athlete Stefon Diggs and imposed a one-game suspension of Diggs for violating the Big Ten Sportsmanship Policy prior to the Penn State game on Nov. 1.

The Big Ten determined that Edsall failed to control his team prior to the game when Maryland players initiated a confrontation with Penn State players. The officials did a good job of containing the situation once it started, and fortunately the incident did not escalate any further. In addition to Edsall’s public reprimand, the conference announced that the institution has been fined $10,000 as a result of the violation.

The Big Ten also determined that Diggs’ actions toward officials and opposing players before the game violated conference policy. Diggs will serve his one-game suspension on Nov. 15 against Michigan State.

In addition, the decision by Maryland team captains to not shake hands with Penn State team captains during the pre-game coin toss ceremony was exceptionally regrettable.  For many, many decades the intercollegiate pre-game handshake has been in place to reflect a spirit of good will and utmost appreciation for your opponent, the game and the institutions that sponsor your sport. Selection as a team captain is an honor that carries with it a greater responsibility to act in a manner consistent with those principles.

Big Ten Conference Agreement 10.01 states in part that “The Big Ten Conference expects all contests involving a member institution to be conducted without compromise to any fundamental element of sportsmanship. Such fundamental elements include integrity of the competition, civility toward all, and respect, particularly toward opponents and officials.”

The Big Ten Conference considers this matter concluded and will have no further comment.

During a May trip to Baltimore, Nittany Lions coach James Franklin told a crowd of Penn State fans he considered Maryland "in-state" and said, regarding other schools in the region, "They might as well shut them down because they don't have a chance."

But that reeks of sportsmanship!

Diggs should get a season suspension. He Mushed the ref bruh

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

wow @ Diggs

 

[dacomeup]

Diggs should get a season suspension. He Mushed the ref bruh

That's why I was shocked that he only got a game. Contact with an official would seem to warrant more.

Thought you were saying it as if it was too severe instead of too light

I didn't even see that

They let him play in the game after that?

Thinking round 2 for RU hosting IU. Could be the Scarlet Knights' bowl eligible clinching win (6). We really miss Paul James, and that's an understatement.

He probably deserved it

Skip Bayless: "There isn't a school in the country that can hang with the SEC and deserve our respect."

He also said 3 SEC West teams will make the playoff.  Then cited strength of schedule as evidence.

"If Auburn played Oregon on a neutral field today Auburn would beat them."

Hilariously, Oregon is probably a bad matchup for Auburn this year.

It's not scales.

I think it has something to do with the Starkvegas thing.
