B10 Football

This year the B10 was supposed to be the strongest and deepest conference and yet they started off the bowl season at 0-4. It took a retiring Barry Alvarez to lead Wisconsin to the first B10 win, followed up by a BCS win by Ohio State and in the BCS matchup between Joe Paterno and Bobby Bowden, it took 4 hours 40 minutes and Triple Overtime, for PSU to get the Big Ten's 2nd BCS win and 3rd overall.

Man I felt bad for both of those kickers. Glad to see the young kid from Penn State get a chance to redeem himself on that 3rd try.

I don't know about you but I'm still trying to wake up after that late night.

Both teams played hard and hit hard. But, Florida State plays dirty. For an example, the intentional hit on Penn State's linebacker #31's knees in the fourth quarter. NO FLAG! Sure put him out of the game at a critical time. OUCH! I hope he comes back next year.
