This is the first time Michigan has lost to both Illinois and Indiana in the same season since 1958. The only other time that happened was 1936.

Interestingly, Indiana has more wins over Michigan in Ann Arbor (7) than it does in Bloomington (4). The last time the Hoosiers won in Ann Arbor was 1967.

And it might be another 70 years until that happens again, given Michigan will not play both Illinois and Indiana in the same season.

Oklahoma just tied Miznoz with 3:18 to go. Miznoz missed an xtra point just before Oklahoma scored.

Just switched over to the UVA/Pitt game from the A/LSU rout. Hoping UVA can hold on for the win to help our ranking.

Miznoz scored a to to tie and then run in a fumble to take the lead. 4th turnover for Oklahoma.

Good for UVA to beat #18Pitt, at Pitt no less, and bring them back to the pack.

This week is a good example of why 2 win teams make the CFP over 80% of the time historically. No matter how much people believe every single year with a month to go in the season that there's going to be a ton of 1 loss or less teams, teams always unexpectedly lose games this time of year. Only 11 1 loss or less teams from a major conference left. That number will be cut in half at the very least by end of season.

Kansas was due. Had a feeling about that one. They’re much better than their record would indicate and it was a solid win for the illini early on. Good sign that illini can possibly win out.

Colorado doing much better than I thought. Seems like shurmur as OC has made a big difference. Deon I’ll bet has been a little more ‘hands off’ as far as actual game plans.

Then Michigan… looks like 6-6, but NW might be able to pull it off and make them 5-7. Never know with those crazy cats. Think that’s enough to fire Moore after one season? In my opinion they might as well not drag it on, because he is not the guy.

Kansas has 6 losses and 5 of them were one score losses. Kansas could easily have anywhere from 4-7 wins right now if they had a better record in one score games.

Absolute miracle escape for BYU at Utah. With under 2 minutes to go and no timeouts, BYU quarterback gets sacked near his goal line on 4th down to end th— WAIT, a soft defensive holding call gives them an automatic 1st down, and then BYU marches down the field to make a 44 yd field goal with 3 second left to win. AT Utah. WOW.

there is really no explanation for that other than them knowing what defense we were running . it doesn’t make any sense otherwise

It may turn out that Ryan Browne’s performance against Illinois is the best single-game effort of his college football career by a wide margin.

Ya just get the feeling... announcer goes "really, really terrific call by the officials" = usually total bs.

Will stink for them... played well but hard to win when you don't score at all in half 2 against a T25 team.

Reeks of our game against Michigan in 2022. There's too much money involved for these conferences to not push for their best teams to make the Playoff
