Iowa-Purdue, 11:00, BTN (Thom Brennaman, Chris Martin, Anthony Herron). I haven't been outside yet, but the weather looks miserable. It might be Senior Day, but I'm staying right here.

but Iowa is 0-4 when i’m here with you fellas, and 6-0 when i’m not…
By the way, i was at the Penn St. game last weekend. It was awesome.

Charles Davis' unprecedented streak of idiocy continues unabated
He just said the Sash interception “sealed the game,” then followed that up by saying Penn State is the “unquestioned” best defense in the conference. And this is Fox’s lead analyst.
Please, God, give the BCS to ABC. Or CBS. Or the Family Channel. Anything has to be better than this.

Since no game on Direct TV
Flipping it around the other Big Ten games. Got to NU-Mich just in time to see NU continue their stellar tackling from last week. At least 5 Wildcats got a hand on Carlos Brown, but still let him gain 13 yards. Game is 7-7
Inexplicably, Juice has yet to throw an INT and Illinois is on the OSU 12 yard line. And of course, as I type those words, Juice throws an INT. OSU up 16-7. But remember, Juice is a GOOD QB!
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Juice Sucks
He sucked last year, he sucks this year, he’s gonna suck next year, and he’s gonna suck as an insurance agent the year after that…
'They are who we thought they were!'
But, but, but, but...
all the announcers say how great he is! And they clearly know what they’re talking about, after all, they wouldn’t get these jobs unless the were the best and brightest, true geniuses of their field.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
OSU just scores a TD
Pryor (freshmen) > Juice Williams
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Precisely
Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson are shining examples of this. They got their jobs because of their hard work and intelligence.
'They are who we thought they were!'
However they got their jobs
I’m fine with, just as long as I see them on TV and not Pam Ward

Iowa 23, Purdue 17 — The Hawkeyes could struggle early after an emotional win last week, and Purdue’s defense has done a good job against traditional offenses this season. Joe Tiller rotates quarterbacks Justin Siller and Curtis Painter and has some success, but Iowa running back Shonn Greene proves to be too much with his 11th consecutive 100-yard rushing game. Iowa’s defense clamps down late to seal the win.
