Yea home team is 1-5 in this series going back to 06, don't expect that trend to change on Saturday.

Besides the rivalry factor it shouldn't even be close. Michigan st. has done nothing this year that they can hang their hat on.

This season could be so much fun if it wasn't for the god damn sanctions. Blah

A bunch of games I'm still excited to watch. At this point in the season any game with a undefeated team left is worth watching. BCS races are on.

This game is their Super Bowl though. This is the most important game of the year every year for them and I expect it will be closer than it should be.

Coach Will Muschamp said Monday he expects linebacker Jelani Jenkins, defensive end Dominique Easley, center Jon Harrison, guard James Wilson and left tackle Xavier Nixon to play against South Carolina (No. 7 BCS, No. 9 AP) on Saturday.

They missed all or part of Saturday's 31-17 win at Vanderbilt.

"We're hopeful to have all those guys back," Muschamp said. "They're all definitely going to be fine or probable at the worst, except with (Latroy) Pittman, who would be questionable at this time."

huge news for the Gators

I talked to a Sparty grad on Saturday, and his direct quote was, "Yea, we are bad, but this is one of those years where we go 1-11 and as long as we beat Michigan, it'll be a good year."

A win this weekend would be pretty awesome, Michigan. Don't mess this up.

[scottyboy]

don't mess this up classic old Rutgers style, please. Just keep rolling, handle business against Temple, come back to beat Kent State for homecoming, and focus on the real tough part of the schedule with 3 tough games to close it out on

UT is going to beat Bama I think.

Keys to picking UT-Bama:

Derek Dooley still our coach? Check
Alabama ranked in the top 25? Check

Bama automatically wins.

You don't see the band playing a part in this before it's over?

Oregon is rolling.

[SuperMcGee]

Looked away from the Seatte game for a moment. 43 points in under 20 minutes. Alrighty then.

[JRTPlaya21]

The Oregon fapping on twitter is hitting all time highs.

[niel89]

Almost 300 yards rushing already. Damn Oregon you crazy sometimes. I best Oregon lets off late and ASU scores a couple time to make it look like more of a game than it was.

[Smooth Criminal]

I doubt it. Oregon loves putting up as many points as possible. And you can't blame them with the amount of undefeated teams left. Style points and human rankings will matter, and you know theres a lot of people with votes that would love to see an undefeated ND play Alabama.

[draftguru151]

Mariota's 80 yard TD run was pretty.

They might push it more, but they get up by like 55 and then give up 20 late to their 3rd string. Its a tough line to walk between looking good and not getting injured.

Oregon probably would get left out if those 3 were undefeated just because ND is ND.

WVU's season and Geno's Heisman both at stake this weekend. If they dont come out inspired, then **** it all.

[TheBoyWonder22]

David Pollack is hilarious.

[SolidGold]

I just noticed the SMU-Houston score was 72-42...thats pretty insane

[niel89]

And there you go. That was a 43-7 game that actually ended up 43-21. Complete garbage points but nationally people wont think that.

[Giantsfan1080]

I have to miss my first Rutgers game tomorrow in like 7 years. Me sad.
