Paterno is dead, Sandusky will die in jail, and multiple other people are facing charges and jail time. The AD and the University president were both fired. I don't see what keeping 19 year olds from playing in the chik-fil-a bowl does for anyone.

Using that logic, no program should ever be prevented from participating in the bowl season.

From what was learned in the sickening Sandusky case is that it was a systemic failure throughout the university that allowed it to not only occur once...but continue for years. Everyone, apparently, knew but did nothing.

Punishments must be enforced or what's the point?

I think the point is that they're now punishing people who weren't even there when this happened and had no control over it. Everyone in power when this happened is either fired, dead or in jail. The punishment should be altered to affect the AD and President so they can't work in the NCAA again.

Sigh, the Hoke era started with such promise. Down 20-10 to PAC12 bottom feeder Utah? Dammit man get it together.

Yeah it's been a tough season for Michigan, would be surprised if Hoke even makes it to the end of year without getting cannned. The B1G is just a raging dumpster fire right now, the signature conference game so far might be Michigan State hanging with Oregon for as long as they did. Actually, Indiana did beat Missouri today so there's that, I can't think of the last time a B1G school beat a legit SEC team.

WVU hasn't been disrespected by this Oklahoma fan. The last game these two played was awesome just like this one is. WVU's QB and WR's are awesome! Great game going here. I'm just glad they are showing it here in Calgary....

OU's true freshman rb Perine is an absolute monster!

FSU should be ashamed of Winston, but they're not, they help hid a rapist and laughed about it later.

Some comedic refereeing in this NC State/FSU game.

according to what they were just saying now, the timeout was called before the snap so it was still third, but then they called it an incomplete pass? Which it wasn't .... and now they're just derping through another call. Haha, what the hell. Maybe this is "bring your son to work day" and these are actually just the children of the legit refs.

hopefully ... it would be nice to have FSU's season pushed into irrelevancy early so we don't have to suffer through Winston's contrived "I'm a super nice guy" act all season.

Touchdown NC State.

Michigan is no more than a decent Div 2 school at this point....maybe the mightiest fall seen in decades. Just a horrendously bad football team.
