While I think OSU will win this by 10 or so, I think this is one of the most intriguing B1G games in years. I would love to see Indiana win, and would particularly enjoy seeing OSU, Michigan and PSU all shut out of the title game after all the whining their fan bases did about the West Division having a team in that game before the great chaos was instituted this year.
 
This game shows why they just need to develop a football minor league. Teams like OSU have so many more athletes than the average team. These games just aren't fun.

At this point in the game we actually did better than Indiana is doing. Well into the third quarter they only have 68 yards of total offense and losing 28 to 7
 
I didn’t watch the middle part but it seems like a replay of our game last week except IU got a cheap late score.

It's the haves vs. the have-nots. Michigan's new $10M high school QB is being treated like royalty on the sidelines today. How do we compete against teams with NFL-like payrolls?

It really is stupid. Just make the NFL draft high school kids and send them to a minor league.

The top power 4 teams already are the NFL’s D league. Why would they spend many more millions creating new minor league teams, hiring staff, renting stadiums and marketing when OSU, Michigan, Bama etc are willing to spend that money already?
 
We should quit whining and raise some money. We get to start spending $20 million per year on player salaries next year, that penty enough to poor $10 million into our football team plus $8 million into building a really excellent basketball team.

But Title IX
 
But Title IX
Seems like most schools are going to ignore title IX for revenue sharing since it's a passthrough of the TV contract dollars. I am curious if the federal government or courts will change this, but it's been widely reported it's going to start like that at most places.

If we're at a point where womens teams are getting $10 million in direct cash payments for football TV contracts... that's just ****ing ridiculous, and frankly the players will find a way around it, like becoming direct parties to the contract.

I hope all the people who for years and years said "the payers should be paid" (and I am not talking about this board, it was all over the place, tons of message boards, sports talk radio, columnists, cable tv etc etc), I hope they are happy especially if they were fans of a team that isn't as big as OSU or Alabama! Congratulations about the new world of college football you pressured people to create.

OSU and Alabama were 10x better than Us before legal payments to players. Being paid hasn’t changed any of the pecking order.
