Well, It's Time for College Football

[Brrly1 1,146]

Hello Everyone, Well we are into the 4th week in college football and I haven't seen any posts on any of you favorite teams. I guess I will start it off by talking about my Iowa Hawkeyes !!! Gotta Lov'em !!! Quite proud of them especially after being a ten point underdog and they came back after the first quarter fiasco being down 10-0 and won 21- 19 and basically shut down Penn State again. We have a tough road ahead off us but are looking surprisingly well. Well all I can say for now is Go Hawkeye's !!! See Ya, Bye Burly

That was a good game!

[stevasaurus 23,276]

Burly...that was a great game for Iowa...I am a Big Ten fan first...an Illinois fan second, (painful so far this year)...Northwestren fan third, (only 25 miles from me)...and I got to admit, I like Wisconsin, only 1 1/2 hours. I usually root for the underdog, so I am frequently disappointed.

I think the duke was on the edge of his chair watching the Mich/Ind game Saturday.

I am not sure about Minnasota yet...but they "got er done" at Northwestern.

I am guessing that it is another Mich/Ohio St. season for the Big Ten.

I hate to jinks you geys, but I am rooting for Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota

the best shot against the two perrinials.

I really thought Illinois would be a contender this year...they don't even look like they want to be out there on the field. something is not right in Champaigne.

GO BUCKEYES

It truly has been an exciting season so far. Plenty of drama and throwing things at the television!

John, that was a fantastic game for the Hawkeyes. You had to be loving every minute of it.

The Wolverines are about a year away from clicking on all cylinders. Still learning the new system with many new faces. Not bad since we have already surpassed last year's win total. Still plenty of room for improvement! And improve we will. It is nice knowing that Tressel is looking over his shoulder and taking notice.........the Wolverines are on their way back!

Well Guys, Iowa had a good win last week over Penn State,This week should be relatively an easy win but one never knows. Michigan is finally leaving the Big House and headed across the state to Lansing. That will actually possibly be a toughie for them because I think them Spartans are Hungry !!! They have had to many close games and could really use this one to turn there season around. So anyway then you guys come to my House, Kinnick Stadium !!! Boy Howdy I can't wait till that game rolls around. Personally myself, I believe the Hawkeyes are the sleeper in The Big Ten this year. You can say you heard it hear First !!!

Go Hawkeyes !!! See Ya, Bye Burly

Well, Illinois gets to play #15 Penn St. this week. Gives us a better chance against them now ...as last week when they were #5

How is that for Big Ten logic?

Scott...that Mich/Ind game had to be ruff for you...you couldn"t lose.

I really thougfht there might be more back and forth here (in fun) seeing all the people on this site that live in the Big Ten area.

For you ACC guys...you got to give it to the Orangemen, playing 3 Big Ten foes in a row and winning one of them. No Appalation St. freebees there.

Might as well throw the Irish on that band wagon ...they deserve a hand also for playing real foes.

Duke...I would have loved to watch the Ind game with you last Sat. That was a really well played game. I can see you going nuts at times during that one. After all...the series is something like Ind/7 Mich/50 in head to head games. :ychain:

[stevasaurus 23,276]

Brrly...thanks for beating that team last weekend...11 teams in the Big Ten, I still have trouble with the math, although they are a very welcome addition.

Wish us luck this weekend. :scratchead:

[Brrly1 1,146]

Well Duke and all of you Michigan Wolverine fans, you heard it hear first. The Spartans were hungry, just like I thought, I am hoping that the Hawkeyes are just as hungry next week because you are coming to our House " Kinnick Stadium "

Nothing more than that needs to be said for now Go Hawkeyes !!!

See Ya, Bye Burly

GO BUCKEYES

And improve we will. It is nice knowing that Tressel is looking over his shoulder and taking notice.........the Wolverines are on their way back!

I think he has better things to do :hide:

[whfan74 2,071]

In all good fun I hope you read your post over again........

Never once have I said that the Wolverines have made it........but they are on their way. I think that is a fair assessment.

In order to be on their way........the vest needs to look over his shoulder. He isn't chasing yet, but in time will be.

I am glad you are as passionate about your buckeyes as I am with my Wolverines.

Also a congrats goes out to Burly! Those Hawkeyes aren't going to be a roll over team this year!

[Brrly1 1,146]

Scott, To be truthfully honest I don't think the Hawkeyes have ever been a roll over team. Let us not forget Michigan's loss to the University of Toledo last year, I know that I won't. Toledo is actually doing pretty good this year also. You have the Buckeyes and the Wolverines of course getting all the top recruits but then come these other teams with the same kind of recruits that end up going to the shall we say smaller schools but have the same kind of energy as the top recruits and it just makes for a great game no matter who they play for. Yes with Michigan coming to Iowa next week all I can say is " Go Hawkeyes " Thats my story and I am sticking to it. " Go Hawkeyes "

See Ya, Bye Burly

See Ya, Bye Burly

I'd like to have for big ten fun also,,,but I am in mourning...my Illinois team is in the toilet. Hey...how about that Northwestern team? :hide:

[bitten 134]

It is all in good fun.

It would take half the fun out of it if we couldnt razz the other teams fans. I have been on the other end plenty of times.

Well Guys, The bookies are picking Iowa by 7 1/2 points. From what I understand it only takes one. Here's to hoping the Hawkeyes pull out another victory !

Go Hawkeyes !!!
