Is Michigan State going to get some love if they convincingly beat Miami? I'm convinced after 2 games that they are good, don't let me down! I don't like MSU, simply an observation.

I think Michigan State is a pretender but I also feel Miami is too. Hard to predict that match up.

How you feeling about Auburn Saturday night?

I think winning over Wisconsin on the road gave Penn State a major confidence boost that they really needed. Auburn has been untested by cupcakes they easily handled (which is good but expected).

I don't know how Auburn will react to adversity and I think that benefits Penn State, especially in Happy Valley. The new Auburn coach may have some tricks up his sleeve that will be unexpected but I'm sure his schemes aren't fully installed yet. Anything can happen; with that said, I expect Penn State to win solidly. Famous last words, I know.

RE: Open Thread - 2021 Football
Everyone thought Ohio State was going to beat Oregon easily and we all saw what happened there so we (PSU) shouldn't take Auburn lightly.

That being said, trash talk between Penn State and Auburn (I didn't write this!)...

RE: Open Thread - 2021 Football
I agree, Auburn has played cupcakes so far, but like you said, they excelled and didn't play down to their competition and I respect that. I think home field is huge and I'm going with Penn State in this one. I'm really excited to see how Auburn's offense responds to tougher competition. I love this North vs. South matchup and appreciate the schools for playing this game!

Back to Michigan State, I think they are going to smoke Miami on Saturday. I'm sure I just jinxed the Spartans.

I do as well.

Not sure how good Purdue is, but Notre Dame hasn't impressed me this year - they really should be 0-2

I don't know that Purdue will win but it should be close. Toledo should have downed it at the 1 instead of scoring the touchdown and ran the clock down and kick a field goal. They left too much time on the clock and just let Notre Dame score.

Florida State looks really bad losing to an FCS school. Funny how the media decides who is "back". After week one, FSU was going to be a contender in the ACC after taking ND to the limit. FSU is radioactive and anyone who loses to them will see their playoff chances disintegrate.

Crazy ending to UCF/Louisville. Two back to back turnovers in last minute. Louisville almost field goal range, then UCF almost there, then pick 6 and Louisville wins.

My current BIG standings

1. Michigan State
2. Penn State
3. Michigan
4. Wisconsin
5. Ohio State
6. Iowa
7. Maryland
8. Rutgers
9. Purdue
10. Minnesota
11. Nebraska
12. Indiana
13. Northwestern
14. Illinois

Top 10

1. Georgia
2. Alabama
3. Michigan State
4. Oklahoma
5. Penn State
6. Michigan
7. Florida
8. Auburn
9. Texas A&M
10. Kansas State

Note: I use my own formula of offense, defense, losses and sos. My rankings and numbers change drastically week by week. So, for example, Ole Miss has a mediocre schedule and their defense isn't very good. Iowa's offense is horrible and it's affecting their bad rankings.

Thoughts?

Hey now! I may be in Athens, and yes I'm slightly a Bobcat, but I love my Buckeyes! We are in Athens because of obligations to the great state of Ohio. Great seeing another Buckeye on the forum!

I think Florida matches up nicely against Georgia. I know I shouldn't put myself out there like this, but I think 14.5 is giving Florida too much, they cover easily. Could we have the upset of the year?

Very strange tweet?
Are you ready for a new face of the team there?
