Good thing Michigan is playing VT tonight, Michigan should win pretty easy and give the Big 10 a little hope.

He's exciting to watch. In the last couple games, he really pulled himself together. he won't play in the NFL though at least as a QB. maybe special teams, but I really don't follow the NFL enough to know any of that for sure.

The UA all american game is on this week, 10 Texas commits are playing. Should be a good preview of the new talent.

Two 11 win seasons, How many BCS bowl wins? How many Big 10 championships? How many National Championships? Its not that hard to win 11 games playing in the Pathetic 10 confrence.
Those seasons dont mean shit without BCS bowl games, plain and simple.

Ross, MSU isn't National Championship worthy, at least not yet. Considering the last 40 years, I'll take them playing for a Big Ten Championship 3 out of the last 4 years. 1 Big Ten Championship out of 3. Other than OSU, who's won 11 games back-to-back while wearing something other than a leather helmet?

I hate when bowls drop their old bowl name completely and only go by a corporate sponsor name.
I'm totally fine with the Discover Orange Bowl or the Rose Bowl game presented by Vizio. The Capital One Bowl should be the Capital One Citrus (or Tangerine) Bowl. I think dropping the old name out makes it sound less legitimate and like just another lame ass bowl game. The Outback Bowl is tough though, it has a lame name that didn't follow the stadium it was in to start with.

In the Pathetic 10? No Idea, but Im pretty sure USC and Texas have both had back to back 11 win seasons this decade. Thats just off the top of my head, Maybe Florida too? OU? Oregon?

Teams that have won 11 games in each of the last two years...
ACC
Virginia Tech
Big 12
Oklahoma State
Big Ten
Michigan State
Wisconsin
Mountain West/WAC
Texas Christian
Boise State
PAC-12
Oregon
Stanford
SEC
LSU
That's 9 teams out of 120. And yes, talent wise, MSU is probably in the lower third of that list. But with MSU's defense I think they could easily compete with Wisconsin, VaTech, BSU and TCU.

It was the Hall of Fame Bowl before corporate sponsorship in 1986.

Most teams that have done this have done it this decade, especially since schedules were set at 12 games and most conferences added a championship game. Without going back that far, I'd bet that Ohio State, Alabama, LSU, Miami and possibly FSU did it this decade.
