12th ranked Nebraska vs UnrankedWisconsin.
No one gives a shit about Wisconsin. They seem to choke as much as you guys do in the biggest games all the time.
Montee Ball has the all time touchdown record... people give a shit about Wisconsin even though I hate Wisconsin, it's not like they aren't there.
They're 7-5 with a third string QB, no one cares about Wisconsin, period. I guarantee you that Ball is the only player that anyone outside Wisconsin or at least the Big Ten knows about. Oh, and they're 0-2 in Rose Bowls.
I thought we would compare ourselves with REAL conferences... Pac-12 and SEC are the premiere football conferences and the Big 10 used to be right there with them.
You do notice that the ACC and the Big East do play football right? Granted, they're nowhere near the level of the Pac-12 or SEC, but that still doesn't mean you could ignore them.
Thanks for the recruit by the way. We got 3 outstanding CBs coming in now.
Dude's making a big mistake, that's all I can say. Oh, and quit stealing other team's recruits unless you want the NCAA punish you guys again. God forbid you actually play by the rules like everyone else, and not have selfish assholes trade their stuff for tattoos.
Yet again, quit acting like being better than the bitch conferences in football is an accomplishment. We should be stacking up toe for toe with the Pac-12 and SEC... I would say Big 12, but who knows how much longer that conference will be relevant with all the conference reformation.
Except that we can't stand toe to toe with them. I know for a fact that Ohio State can't hang with the elite of the SEC, or Pac-12.
Ohio State is always relevant. People may have been slightly surprised with undefeated BUT EVERYONE IS OUT TO GET OSU EVERY YEAR.
Not last year. To be fair, the Buckeyes were the measuring stick in the Big 10 for the last decade, but for much of Big Ten's history, Michigan was the top dog when the conference was the best in the country, and it won't be long before we take our place at the top, or at the very least compete for it often.
Every team wanted to kick our ass worse because Urban Meyer snaking all the recruits from everyone, but that didn't happen. We are ALWAYS on the radar. We are ALWAYS relevant.
And you will get what's coming. You will be on everyone's radar now, and most teams will play their A-game against you, and a few of those teams will beat you. Until you prove it to everyone that OSU can win the biggest games on the level of an Alabama, LSU or USC {circa 2005} then anything you say is irrelevent, this debate is over.
