The clamoring of our readership for a post has been heard echoing through the mountains and the foothills. I now make my triumphant return to lobbing occasional pot shots at lil bro and unwavering faith in Michigan being the best program in all of college football.
Hey guys, I have come to a recent conclusion that breaks my heart and will be massively insightful yet disappointing news: the B1G is awful at football. It has traveled beyond Big East level shittiness now where I wouldn't even be confident if this bowl season was a Mountain West vs Big Ten challenge. It doesn't help that two of the best teams in the league are ineligible for a bowl game. Slide everyone down a peg or two and things would look slightly less abysmal. We can all agree that MSU would have handled their MAC opponent in the Motor City Bowl appearance they truly earned this season.
As things stand, Sparty did pull off the victory over a Big 12 team in what may be the only B1G victory this bowl season. Here's a quick rundown of the remaining B1G schedule.
Wisconsin vs Stanford in the Rose Bowl
The Grandaddy of em all is aptly named for it's decrepit B1G representative which is the sickly version of the Wisconsin juggernaut that couldn't win this game the previous two seasons anyway. The nice thing, Wisconsin will have a chance against a Stanford team who seems to just want to be Wisconsin when they grow up. Let's not forget that Wisconsin is no longer being led by their prick of a coach Beilema. I don't know if this helps or hurts the Badgers. Hopefully this limb doesn't snap off too violently...Wisconsin 20 - 17
Purdue vs Oklahoma State in the Heart of Dallas Bowl
Purdue made it to a bowl game? #HALOL Oklahoma State 41-14
Northwestern vs Mississippi in the Gator Bowl
Hey, the Wildcats beat Vandy, maybe they can take down another bottom tier SEC squad. Probably not though. The REAL MSU 31-28
Nebraska vs Georgia in the Capital One Bowl
Is there a team more disappointed in its bowl appearance than the Cornhuskers? As a team that represented the Legends division in the B1G championship game it's odd that I don't think Nebraska has much of a prayer against a Georgia team I think is criminally overrated themselves. Georgia 35-20
Michigan vs South Carolina in the Outback Bowl
Confidence is not flowing freely though I am simply excited to watch Denard play his final game and see how Gardner plays. If Devin leads Michigan to a victory my optimism for 2013 will surely spin out of control as I'll be predicting his Heisman winning campaign and a B1G championship for the Wolverines. South Carolina 22-17
Thus concludes the worst Big Ten football season in my memory. 2-5 is actually a decent record for these teams. Big Ten conference basketball season begins this week and the Wolverines are the #2 team in the country. Basketball school!?!?
