    If I was them I'd stonewall them. It's worked so far.

    TOK,

    The Michigan forums speculate that it was a fired ex staff member who notified the NCAA.

    Also a lot of posts claiming this is a witch hunt by the NCAA to get Harbaugh. I think there is a virus going around turning Michigan fans into Oliver Stone clones.

    I just read an article that a main part of this investigation involves the Nebraska game. I got news for ya...we got our asses kicked. Wouldn't have mattered if we used mental telepathy to signal in the plays, Mich was superior on both sides that day. Reminds me of the true story of the 1998 orange bowl. In the 4th quarter, the lineman were so confident, they told the Tenn DL what the play was gonna be, and they still couldn't stop it.

    Well that was quite the turn around, scoop and score negated and then PSU can't stop committing penalties and the Buckeyes get the score. So that would be a like a 14 point flip right?

    Drew Allar has gotten a lot of praise this year so far, but the Buckeyes have made him look pretty ordinary.

    I'm not sure why the Nit punt returner didn't fair catch that, not doing so allowed the Buckeyes to flip the field on them.

    They said it was going to be low scoring, so far that is right onl

    0-11 on 3rd down conversions for PSU. Buckeyes defense has brought their A game today.

    Just looking around the early games. UCF is giving OU a much tougher game than expected. OU up 24-23 mid 4th qtr. Air Force is going to shutout Navy and Miss State beat Arkansas 7-3, a baseball game apparently broke out in the Hills.

    And Penn State’s defense is legit also and keeping them in this game in spite of their wretched offense.

    0-12 now Bob. Buckeye defense just smothering PSU. They go for it on 4th down and nada.

    As a certified 2nd guesser, going for it on 4th down with a lot of time on the clock instead of trying to pin the Buckeyes deep and let your defense get the ball back seems like a bad decision.

    PSU defense has had an answer for almost everything except for Marvin Harrison Jr.

    And Harrison Jr. wraps this game up. Another nightmare game for PSU against the Buckeyes.

    Penn State has a championship level defense but playing like Iowa on offense probably is not what Franklin had in mind when he talked about the need for the Lions to play complimentary football.

    An entirely different game than I anticipated, but a win is a win. Our offense and Kyle McCord's passing stats looked troublesome today. Running back Williams was the workhorse. Not sure why Dylan did not play? Our defense enjoyed their best outing of the season.

    Not a good start for the Tide, Vols have dominated the 1st qtr. and lead 13-0
