That should end the Geno for heisman talk.

He is great, but as you pointed out, B12 won't make it to the championship game. I think K state trips up somewhere along the way.

Have you seen the rest of their schedule?

The Heisman is generally awarded before the title game, btw.

A Big 12 team will not make the title game until they reinstate the Big 12 championship game.

The PAC went without for years and they put some teams in the title game.

The B12 is tougher top to bottom than any conference this year.

Yes I have. I remember a team tripping up against Iowa state last year.

I'm sorry, but even as a Big 12 fan I can't help but laugh at that. Most of the big-name teams have been emphatically exposed, and the conference-wide refusal to field a defense is undermining confidence, too. Absolutely no way the voters let the Big 12 into the title game.

Erin Andrews lost the Tina Fey glasses this week. Good idea. She doesn't need any props or gimmicks.

Somebody told me last week that she's officially "jumped the shark." I think that's a stretch (and frankly kind of rude), but the Fox gig isn't doing her any favors.

I think you will see it continue to rate out as the top conference in models like Sagarin.

Even with Texas and WVa unranked?

she knows her stuff and is very pretty, so that isn't a bad combo. I think she is managing her career very wisely. To that end, I'm not surprised that she has refrained from cashing in on what have surely been innumerable movie or TV gigs. And I think that hotel voyeur thing bought her a lot of sympathy in the public eye.

I agree on the fox gig. As easy as she is on the eyes, she is sitting next to a Heisman winner and Captain Comeback and she is doing most of the talking. That isn't a winning formula for football on TV.

Even with Texas and WVa unranked?

I bet those teams finish the year ranked.

Texas is like Michigan.

Any semblance of something decent will get them a ranking.

yeah, apparently they're going to eke this one out over Baylor, so they should be ranked tomorrow.

Damn, exciting game in Columbus!

His head took 2 hits to the turf. The last one that put him out looked scary. I believe he was unconscious for a while there.. The way he could not stand or even walk made it even more scary.. Head injuries can be scary and the way his head hit the turf to me is no different then a car crash where a head injury is sustained..

I just hope he is OK.. Reports say he has no concussion symptoms. That is hard to believe and he has been released to his home.. I think they should of kept him over night just to observe..

I could care less about the game or if we won after seeing him struggle to walk or even remain steady and then to be taken away by Ambulance… The way he went down pretty much was a reality check on how dangerous this game can be… It didn't look like that hard of a tackle but seeing his head bounce made me cringe..
