I wonder who gets fired first - Addazio at BC or Strong at Kansas St. It's a shame Bill Snyder is in his 70s, he is a damn good coach and has never been a total caste system follower.
Did you mean Snyder at Kansas St or Strong at Texas?

Six Black Gophers restricted from Minnesota's stadium today as part of a restraining order against them from an alleged sexual assault to a female Gopher of game-day operations.

Texas loses and goes to 3-4. Bowl game in doubt with five games remaining. Hopefully, this is the end of AA Coach Strong.

Minnesota beats Rutgers on a field goal with :08 left.

Wisconsin and Iowa played a hard fought enjoyable game. I think Wisconsin may win out when looking at the remaining schedule. Iowa has a little tougher schedule but has a very good chance at 8-4.

Something's not right with Iowa's offense. Their personnel is much than that, even with Vandenberg and Kittle out.

Stanford looks like garbage. They need to do more two TE sets to help in pass blocking, run blocking and giving the mediocre Burns targets underneath.

Stanford looks completely discombobulated.

You beat me to it. I agree that two TE sets would help them, especially with an inexperienced and struggling OL. Surprised Shaw hasn't figured that out.

Burns sucks, holds onto the ball way too long. At some point Shaw should throw Costello in there. Oregon had the right idea - throwing Herbert in there now will pay off down the road.

Wow, this thread is dead today. It's funny how David Shaw was such a genius coach heading toward any job he wanted, college or pro... It looks like McCaffrey still put up some numbers. It's very rare to put up back to back Heisman caliber seasons. He should go pro next season and there won't be so much hype and pressure.

I disagree with McCaffrey going to the nfl this year. The way the league is with it's discrimination of white athletes at all but especially certain positions, if he goes early he may not get drafted. As crazy as that sounds in the the no whites league anything is possible. If I'm him i come back for my senior year when they have a better o-line and a more stable quarterback along with some receivers. The cup board is empty on this team. They double him all over the field. It's not his fault.

I thought he played good today despite the offensive line imploding as usual and the qb having his worst game of the year.

I think the best bet for Stanford is if they throw in Costello and take their lumps this year with him. They can come back next season with an experienced QB, McCaffrey (if he does not declare), Irwin at WR, Schult at TE and an always solid defense. With the current state of the QB situation their season is done in terms of BCS or New Year's day bowl games anyway.
