Plus, they clobbered an SEC team. It was definitely a "statement" win.

My picks: Baylor, Oregon, Bama. All the favorites, so I'm probably wrong on at least one!

I'll be watching Melvin Gordon for Wisconsin too.

I'm not sure how much I'll get to watch. I'm hoping to catch both playoff games (it seems weird to say that about college football). I'm definitely hoping the Big 10 fares well, especially Ohio State, although the odds aren't in their favor.

Go Gophs, Sparty, Buckeyes, Wisco ... B1G! Haha. I feel like they could all lose, great games today.

I have to say that Michigan St. looks like a pretty solid team. They're hanging with Baylor so far, but I'm getting the sense that they won't be able to keep up. The Gophers are looking solid. Nice to see. I really like Kill.

Wisconsin's QB is atrocious. I also don't think I want Gordon in the first round. I'd rather have a really dynamic, pass-catching RB in round 3 or 4, whether we keep AD or not. Get me a superior WR with that top pick.

Yeah, that was a fired up team right there. They felt disrespected and were very focused. I love to see the SEC get a cold dose of reality too.

Speaking of Gordon... did anybody just see that TD run he made on 4th and 1? Wow!

Yeah... Pretty good timing on my part, eh? I can see why some posters here are high on him. That was a seriously impressive run, for numerous reasons. His determination to get to the EZ at the end especially.

HOLY smokes, did you see the play by Gopher's TE #88 (Williams)?

I literally said, "Wow" out loud when I saw it... and nobody else is here!

Missed it.

Missed it.

He scored a 30-40 yard TD and straight up hurdled a guy at full stride before bursting into the end zone. We're not talking a Jerome Wiggins, 2 foot scissor kick of a hurdle either, he got some serious air.

Those two plays are the top two so far today... I'm sure we're in for some more highlights with what's left.

This Wisconsin game is getting good.

I'll look for that highlight later!

Edit: I saw it on the broadcast of the Wisconsin game right after I posted that. Great play!

Yes, the pudgy Brazilian just tied it up with mere seconds left in regulation.

I have quite a few Brazilian friends and I've never, ever met a single Brazilian as chubby as the Wisconsin kicker! That cheddar cheese up there must be packing on his freshman 50. Spirited guy, too.

Wow. Off the upright for the Sconny win. Cool ending.

Well, that cheese IS pretty good.

Yeah, i wish I'd seen the whole game. I only saw the second half. If the Bowls tonight live up to that one, we have some fun ahead.

Don't look now, but the SEC is having a brutal bowl season thus far

Wow, this Baylor - Mich. St game just got crazy. After trailing 42-21, Mich. St. is driving for the win.
