NB There's a little tension in this house this time of year. Her Loveliness is strictly an MSU athletic supporter. I'm strictly "Go Blue". I nearly had a heart attack the last two seconds of the UM/ MSU game. That wouldn't happen again in a hundred years. Dick, Is Cook GTG on Saturday?? He surely will get drafted "IF" his shoulder is OK moving forward.However, the two backups for MSU took care of business at the horseshoe last Saturday. Penn State secondary has some glaring flaws which Jake exposed for the world to see last Saturday. It could get ugly for PSU in E. Lansing in a couple of days. I agree on "The Fluke of the Century". That kind of bounce wont happen again in 100 years. And State knows it. I think OSU/UM game is a tossup. Great story lines as always. Would be great to see Harbaugh get the first win against Urban. And watch out for #5. My son and DIL will be at the game; they bleed Blue too. Rod NB, I don't know if Cook is O.K. or not. I sure didn't like seeing his right arm just kinda hanging down last week. We'll find out shortly. I heard rumors of a partially dislocated shoulder. If so I'm not sure a couple weeks is long enough to rehab it. One good hit on it and he'll be out for the rest of the season. I don't think they'll need him to play against PSU...

I agree........don't think they'll play him this week. But if MSU wins, I think they should beat Iowa. Iowa was handed a gift yesterday from a terrible Nebraska team with a 4th rate QB as they pretty much self destructed. Too bad they played their game of the year against MSU when MSU's coaching staff had their heads up their azzes as they manage to do quite often. I think MSU has too much offense & will pick Iowa apart, assuming Cook can play. W/o Cook, Iowa might have the edge, but maybe not. O'Connor is actually a pretty good passer. Just couldn't throw much in the conditions with tOSU last week. MM

Could be the year of the Hawks. They still have a game to play in Lincoln next Friday and I have a feeling they ain't gonna like the outcome. Mike I hear Tommy Armstrong jr. was voted the MVP for Iowa last night. He sure proved he was on the field.

As far as today goes, the Spartans need only worry about there own game, and do not have to rely on the outcomes of other games...just sayin

With four turnovers, 100+ penalty yards and some of the schittiest play calling I've ever seen, I'm surprised the Huskers only lost by eight. Mike

I'm tempted to watch most of the UM/OSU game in case they have more of those fan-scanning, jaws-open moments...

(And BTW, that third that attempt at a goal line TD when the refs didn't blow the play dead wasn't a TD, either)

Very Nice Drive and TD by UM to end the half. 14-10, anybody's ball game. UM ain't done yet. Need to stop the dumb penalties.
Who was the idiot to call two TOs for the Suckeyes in the first 8 minutes of the game??

It just started. Cook is playing and he just threw his first touchdown.

MSU not really playing well, just getting a lot of breaks.
Playing their usual passive, soft defense & giving up a LOT of yard & now a TD.
They just simply refuse to blitz & drop the LB's back & their front 4 just can't consistently get past 6 blockers & so they give the QB just far too much time & security to find someone & on runs, they just simply give up a lot of yards as they have all year.
Dantonio is simply far to conservative, far too much of the time on game day, even offensively, especially running where, 90% of the plays are between the guards.
