2014 Big preTENders discussion thread

Devastating day for a conference that was exposed in several marquee matchups on the national stage.

The Big Ten is more little than large during the inaugural playoff season.

They'll find some way to inflate someone to participate. I mean all they have to hope for is FSU to lose ANYTHING and the ACC is done. Not all hope is lost!

Shocked! I mean shocked jojo of all people would start such a derogatory thread (with such expediency). Must be great fun leading a life of such schadenfreude.

No doubt though, the B1G got pwned today. Lot of ugly football by what is supposed to be the top tier of the conference. I do think MSU may deserve a second chance. Heading to Autzen for the second game of the season is a tall order. Looks like it'll be wide open for the crown, and uncertain what the honor will lead to.

Seems pretty clear at this point that the crown will earn a spot in the Rose Bowl. It's hard to imagine a Big Ten team in the playoffs after today.

May be off base here, but I think the 2015 Rose Bowl will be a semifinal for the playoff, meaning no Big Ten/Pac 12 commitments.

I thought we still had all the major bowls and that the playoffs were completely separate. Could be wrong, though.

Shocked! I mean shocked jojo blah blah blah blah blah.

Shocking is authoring ad hominem while agreeing that the Big Ten got owned.

This thread was pretty clearly started to talk trash. I'd like to think users on this site are above that. If you want to start a legitimate thread to discuss yesterday's precedings, go ahead, but this isn't it.
