Between Oregon and Auburn you could toss a coin, they are that close. I'll stay with Auburn until they lose.

The Big 10 Becomes The Big 12 By: Grubb Young | - As many people are already aware, the Big 10 Convention is expanding. Starting in the 2011 period, the Big 10 will expand to 12 groups, adding Nebraska. The Big 10 has now announced the new "divisions" they'll use moving forward. They haven't named the divisions yet but one division may have Michigan, Nebraska, Iowa, Michigan State, Northwestern and Minnesota although the other division may have Ohio State, Penn State, Wisconsin, Purdue, Indiana and Illinois.
Several analysts have already claimed that Wisconsin"s OL which returns 5 starters and features 1st Team All Big Ten senior stars LT Gabe Carimi & Center John Moffit is the best Offensive Line in the nation. To be the best, a team must first be best inside its own conference. Last year"s Ohio State"s OL played ferociously in the latter part of the season as Coach Tressel mixed in more of a tradit ...

The university fields 24 teams in the Big Ten conference of the NCAA Division I. The various athletic teams have won a combined total of 24 NCAA national titles, including an unprecedented six consecutive titles in men's swimming and diving. Why not celebrate such a storied team with your own Indiana cornhole set? What could be better than combining your favorite school with years of tailgating fun.
When Mark Dantonio took over as head coach of the Michigan State University football program 3 years ago, no one was more excited and clapping louder than this former athlete and Michigan State graduate. It was easy to understand why.
In my last two seasons of watching the Spartans as a student-athlete, Michigan State players and their coach Duffy Daugherty won both Big Ten and National Championships in 1965 and 1966. After graduating in ... Tags:BCS, bowl games, Alabama, Texas, Florida, Cincinnati, TCU, Boise State, Oregon, Ohio State,

In a great example of too little too late, there were 4 upsets of AP Top 25 teams in college football's 12th week and none of them had any real impact. On the other hand, two favorites won big time road games with big implications as Ohio State buried Michigan 21-10, and Oregon held off a very pesky Arizona team, 44-41.
It's over for Southern California. Coach Pete Carroll will be dining with some lesser light Hollywood celebrities in the near future.
Gone are the USC streaks of 7 straight BCS bowls, 7 straight 11-win seasons, and 7 straight top-4 AP poll finishes. Gone also is USC's 7-year stranglehold on the Pac-10 Conference title.
When the train was ready to pull out of the station this year at East Lansing, the Michigan State University Spartans had a chance to enjoy every stop on their way to an unbeaten season.
They could have run the table at the pool hall. They could have had a scenic and exciting journey, rising right up to become one of the elite teams in the country. In addition to the usual stops on the journey, the Spartans had two of their three biggest ...

Oregon's 47-20 upset victory over Southern California was beyond huge this week, causing a significant shift in who is where in my Top 25 Poll for college football's 9th week of play. Here is how I see it:
1) Alabama (8-0) - The Crimson Tide was idle this week, and it was probably for the best as Florida won big, but I am not moving the Gators back to No. 1 yet. Let's see how Alabama does when LSU comes to town next week.
Oregon, Texas and Iowa won huge, critical victories to remain in contention for the National Championship Game during college football's 9th week of play.
None of the three victories was more impressive or substantial than 10th-ranked Oregon's convincing, ultimately dominating 47-20 upset win at home over 4th-ranked Southern California. Oregon was a 3-point underdog in the game.
It was a good week to be Florida, Alabama, Texas, Cincinnati, Boise State, Iowa and TCU—all won, and all are the only unbeaten major teams left in the nation. Every one of them are beatable, the only monster thing about any of them are the college publicity departments that promote them. Here's my Top 25 for the 7th week:
Just when you thought some sense of stability might have returned to college football during the halfway point of the season, any semblance belies the truth that at least four more teams have become frauds in the national title chase—Kansas, Ohio State, Virginia Tech and Nebraska.
Kansas had raced to a perfect 5-0 start. Virginia Tech lost its opener, Ohio State lost its second game, and Nebraska lost its third game. All three had l ... Tags:college, football, top 25, BCS, Alabama, Florida, Texas, Cincinnati, Iowa, TCU
(Editor's Note: The rankings in this article are from the AP Top 25 Poll of sportswriters and sportscasters, and any ratings are from Jeff Sagarin.)
No win in College Football's 4th week of action was any bigger than unranked Iowa's 21-10 upset victory on-the-road over 5th-ranked Penn State in Happy Valley. Iowa is now unbeaten at 4-0.
" Ball State ranked in the top 35 nationally in 2007 in five different categories; turnover margin (4th), passing offense (22nd), passing efficiency (24th), net punting (29th) and total offense (31st). The Ball State trigger-man of that potent offense is Nate Davis who had an amazing sophomore season in 2007 tossing 30 touchdowns to just 6 interceptions in his 478 pass attempts.
2008 Big Ten Football Preview By: Matt Baxendell | - The Big Ten had a tough 2007 as the conference dealt with the fallout from 2006's stunning showing during the bowl season where both Ohio State and Michigan lost badly after finishing the regular season both ranked in the top 3 and boasted 23 wins combined. Despite the Big Ten's bowl record of 2-1 against the SEC, it was open season on the conference, especially down south. How did the Big Ten respond? By preseason top five selection Michigan losing to Appalachian State in one of the biggest ups ... Tags:college sports, college sports fans, college fan sites, college football fans

200 Big 10 College Football Preview By: Bettorsworld.com | - Michigan - Great year for Michigan last year, however the disappointment came at the end of the year as they dropped their final 2 games.......the shootout at Ohio State and the Rose Bowl to USC. They should be ok on offense this year, returning QB Chad Henne and Running Back Mike Hart to lead the way. However the defense lost a bunch. In our article about returning starters, we mentioned how losing starters, in this case 7, can be devastating for some schools, yet not such a big deal for other ... Tags:Free Football picks
Relocating To Indianapolis By: Genna Waistell | - If you are thinking of relocating 50 miles or more from your present location, you have to consider a lot of factors before making the move. You must know the nature of the job market, the quality of schools and the crime rate of the area.
The prime consideration, over and above all these factors is the housing costs in the new area. Given that the average housing costs in most major cities are much higher than the national average, it becomes difficult to find a home near the ant ...

The Big Ten Report By: Max Gundlach | - The Big Ten Conference has become a two-team race and we are now just one week away from the dream match-up between Michigan and Ohio State. These two teams were looking ahead last weekend and both survived single-digit victories over bad teams. After these two programs, there is a clear-cut No. 3 team that plays just 25 minutes away from our main office in Wisconsin.
I stated a couple of weeks ago that Wisconsin and Iowa would be vying for the third spot and a berth in the Capito ... Tags:big ten, college football
