Wisconsin absolutely crapped the bed in Champaign. This means that Penn State is playing for a trip the the B1G title game later. What a PR nightmare this could be.

GadZOOKs!

Oh, BTW, Furman, yes, Furman is beating Florida by 15 early. That meltdown could be beautiful.

As crazy as it sounds, Illinois should be winning by now. The punter dropped the snap and Wisconsin recovered on the 1 before their only score. Man, DuVernois sucks. I just hope they can keep it up in the second half. Zook might just save his job with this game.

Absolutely. They are thoroughly dominating this game--and ILL lost 4 points on BS offensive pass interference calls. Maybe not all year, but on this day, they are the better team. They are controlling both lines and Wisconsin is just not tackling. Wisconsin is what they've been for the last 20 years...a middle of the pack big ten team.

Especially with Florida State awaiting the Gators next week. No Bowl for Florida at possibly 5-7.

This "they haven't lost in regulation" argument is complete bull-:censored:. That's like saying the Red Sox didn't really lose game 6 because they lost it in extra innings. A loss is a loss. Period.

It just goes to show how intense the pro-SEC bias in college football is when Les Miles was able to use that idiotic argument to convince the BCS to put a 2-loss LSU team in the title game.

It may be an idiotic argument, but about a month ago, you were wanting the voters to take into account that Stanford needed triple-OT to beat USC so that Boise State could move up in the BCS rankings.

Again, thanks for nothing, USC. I'd like to think that voters will notice that Stanford had to go to triple-overtime to beat an unranked team, but we all know they'll just see the score with Stanford on top and that will be enough for them.

At least Clemson, Wisky, and K-State lost.

If you want every loss to be treated equally, then you have to expect every win to be treated equally. You can't have it both ways.

Besides, Les Miles and LSU didn't beg their way into the national championship game. They had everything fall into place.

LSU was 5th in the BCS entering the final week of the season. LSU beat Tennessee to win the SEC Championship. Then:

#1 Missouri lost to #9 Oklahoma by 3 touchdowns in the Big XII Championship.

#2 West Virginia lost at home to a 4-7 Pittsburgh team.

#3 Ohio State (the only 1-loss BCS conference champion) moved up to #1 by not even playing a game.

#4 Georgia fell to #5 in the following week's poll because they didn't play a game (also shows that the BCS isn't SEC-biased, or else they'd move up like OSU did).

#6 Virginia Tech won the ACC Championship, but lost to LSU 48-7 earlier in the season.

#7 Kansas didn't win their conference.

#8 USC lost at home to Stanford when USC was a 40+ point favorite. They fell behind too far.

#9 Oklahoma was too far back also, and also lost to West Virginia in their bowl game.

#10 Hawaii was the lone undefeated, but they showed their true colors in a 31-point loss to Georgia.

Had Missouri or West Virginia won, LSU doesn't make it to the BCS title game.

I'll continue using facts and logic with my arguments, and you keep on blowing that "BCS is SEC-biased!!!!!!111111one" whistle that continues to make you look like an idiot.

The Citadel showed up strong pretty early against South Carolina, Furman's still leading Florida, Samford is within one score of Auburn, as is Georgia Southern with Alabama.

So, what have we learned today about the Southern Conference, college football fans?

Well Wisconsin found a way...mainly through bad calls and ILL turnovers.

They should beat PSU next week and end the PR nightmare.

Well Georgia Southern is a powerhouse in the FCS and always strong (that town is insane on Gameday), Furman gives big teams hard times often, and Citadel runs an option offense...which is hell for any team when you never prepare for it until week of the game. Samford, I dunno what their reasoning is.

Off topic, go Wildcats!

Only because, since the BCS is willing to move Boise down in the polls after a win that pollsters see as "unimpressive", they should have been consistent and moved Stanford down after the USC game. Very exciting game for sure, but getting taken to 3 OT's by an unranked team is FAR from impressive.

USC was ranked #20 at the time of the game. USC is 8-2... an "unimpressive win" over USC is considerably more impressive than the unimpressive wins over the likes of anybody on Boise's schedule aside from Georgia.

That if any one of these teams took the SoCon's best team (Appalanchian State), then they could possibly lose that game.

None of these teams (with the exception of Georgia Southern) are worth a damn this season to begin with.

Corso dropped the F-Bomb again - NSFW video in link

Carl Lewis', Fowler's, and Herbie's reactions were classic.

Was this censored on TV, or was this live? If this was live, Lee Corso is my hero.

Oh boy was it live. Heard it myself and had to do a double take.

And it sent everyone in this restaurant I'm sitting in into immediate and thorough laughter, even the wait staff.

I found this comment to be quite hilarious in response to that video link:

Corso can now cross "putting head in a cougar" off of his f*** it list.
