Big Ten demanding respeck.

Holy crap, I thought Illinois’ lead was insurmountable. Now this one? Hooooboy. The only thing running through my mind now is “Just wait ’till Wisconsin throws their hat into this one.”

Seriously, has there been any thought of having a conference championship type of thing with this, similar to the Bowl Challenge Cup. It would be similar to conference RPI in basketball.

If PSU does rack up the points on this one and Wisconsin and OSU make their usual entries, you could end up with quite a lead for the Big Ten. And the Purdue “We run this place” Boilermakers are probably only beginning to scratch the surfact. Let’s just say the scoreboard would look really funny if broken into conferences.

I swear there’s something to the Mason/Dixon line North thing.

The word on the “boards” is that one player’s girlfriend got “shoved” at a party and said player called the assistance of two teammates to beat on the shover.

I love the fact that some in BIG 10 schools refer to southerners and southern football players as ignorant and thuggish. Fulmer Cup points say otherwise. People in glass houses shouldn’t throw rocks at other people in slightly more robust glass houses.

Hook ’em—

Thought we were too busy throwing rocks at local rivals to care. Because we know we are…

Seriously, it’s not like we’re going to beat Michigan in the next 40 years, anyway. We might as well win this.

Also, Paterno is already on a zombie rampage after hearing this news. We’ll see how many of the alleged combatants are football players, and whether they’re all charged with the burglary / assault / battery combo (truly, the triple crown of drunken malfeasance). The Centre County D.A. usually has qutie the hard-on for troubled football players — the athletes usually end up getting reamed because the D.A. hates to look soft on that stuff.

I’d put the over/under of Fulmer Cup points around 39. Probably not enough to hold off Ohio University, when all is said and done.

I thought Penn State ran the cleanest program in the country? Must be another campus.

by oski on Apr 3, 2007 5:11 PM EDT reply actions  

usually the players wait until their eligibility runs out before they get into trouble – but these kids started as freshmen – so they’ve always been overachievers.

by PSUgirl on Apr 3, 2007 5:15 PM EDT reply actions  

Oski, there’s only so much a brain eating zombie can control. No NCAA violations in 50 years — under his control. Fightin’ In Da ______ (club, street, College Ave. apartment building), not so much.

The Fulmer Cup scoring committee needs to start assessing 1-5 points to each player on a per incident basis rather than per charge. One good night can clinch a victory for a team.

Not sure what the exact rules are for the Fulmer Cup, too lazy to look them up, but there has got to be a way that South Carolina gets some points for a player’s brother shooting two people, killing one of them, to steal a car so that he could drive to his brother’s practice.

And further, why is no one talking about this?

If by throw you mean shoot, and by rocks you mean AK-47s, then, yes….

Hey tOSUBuckeyes, check out this link
http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/?p=3274

and the South Carolina situation has been discussed..to sad of a story to make fun of…

the Ohio State University…beaten by speedy posting on an SEC blog (that seems to be a pattern as of late)
I guess the Big 10 Commish could blame it on EDSBS not placing as much importance on academia..

by CapstoneAlum on Apr 3, 2007 10:38 PM EDT reply actions  

I’m blown away by this. Penn State is probably the last BCS program who I’d think would have something like this.

by John on Apr 3, 2007 11:05 PM EDT reply actions  

Big 10*: 40
MAC: 13
WAC: 13
SEC: 10
Big East: 6
Pac 10: 3
ACC: 2
Conf USA: 1
MWC: 1

Big 12 and Sun Belt: Thugless

*Plus somewhere between 8 and 80 points for Penn State

Well, it looks as if once again Notre Dame will decline to enter the contest. Sucks having the ACTUAL cleanest program in the country, no fun stories to tell.

Wait…has EDSBS ever placed importance on academia? Methinks not.

wooderson, i’m sure that ND would get involved with robbing some convenience stores or something, but they know they are aren’t fast enough to escape the 70 year old grandma behind the counter.

Now let’s discuss the meaning of “clean” in the scope of college football – Kids getting hot under the collar, defending their friends and womanfolk – that’s not “dirty” that’s a problem.

Probation, investigations, penalties, Lou Holtz – that’s …
