Miami takes a 17-7 lead, Virginia leads Clemson, 10-3.

No field goals allowed in Nebraska @ Indiana, Indy is 50-50 0n 4th &2, Nebraska just went for it on 4th & 2, Dowdell fumbled, but was short anyway.

Well, Indiana tries it again on 4th & 2, this time Nebraska sacks the QB for a yard loss.

Go, Shough!!!

Nebraska gets a very crucial 1st down to avoid punting from inside their own 5. But now they punt from the 12. If Indiana goes up 14-0 in the first 10 minutes...

It's supposed to be that a tough defense will slow down a great offense, Indiana's offense has been great, but Nebraska's D is the best that Indiana has faced this season. Indy goes for it on 4th & 2 , gets it and TD on the next play, the first rushing TD Nebraska has allowed this season.

From 49 to 0 in a week has to be a record, congrats, Purdue!

Some Purdue fan reaction: This was far more of a game than I thought. Was it only one or two 3 and outs? Offense did move the ball, but kept shooting themselves in the foot. After the first 3 drives ended in TD’s the defense finally got off the field. I mean it sucks to be shut out - no denying that - and to continuously see poor fundamentals is maddening. In some sense I have to wonder what the offense would be like had Browne been given the keys at the start of the year. Maybe the offense is a little more competent and this game is a bit closer. Not seeing an upside in dispensing with Walters just yet. Things are changing. A month ago I think we lose by 70+. "more of a game than I thought" I died a little reading this. What part was the "game"? They scored 3 touchdowns on opening drives of 75, 80, and 99 yards, all less than 5 minutes, none with a play over 50 yards, and only 2 plays over 30 yards, the rest were 10, 15, 20 yards plays on nearly every other play. Walters should be packing his office right now.

It looks like two weeks minimum before even practice is possible.

Terrance Ferguson injury update: Oregon TE had appendix removed ahead of Week 8 - On3 WWW.ON3.COM .

As I was watching the game, I was thinking there was something different about this Oregon team. It clearly is the defense. That 5 of 7 games is a remarkable stat, and as Lanning said, "Lot's to improve on". Wow.

Tomorrow will be full of good games, Miami @ Louisville, 9:00 on ABC, Nebraska @ Indiana, 9:00 on Fox, Miami games aren't interesting until the last two minutes. Alabama @ Tennessee, 12:30 ABC and No.5 Georgia @ No.1 Texas, 4:30 on ABC.

Tim Brando has been around a long time, and I've always liked his game. I'm not familiar with the analyst, but both he and Brando definitely knew who the Ducks were and were as supportive to Purdue, in a 35-0 loss, as possible.

Looks like Joel came out a little Klatt with this: "What do we see all the time in college football? Teams underperform the week after their most emotional win," Klatt said on his preview podcast. "We saw it with Alabama losing to Vanderbilt after beating Georgia. I think that we see it with Oregon and Purdue." "I'm not suggesting that Purdue is going to win the game, but 27.5 points is too much," Klatt said, speaking of the betting odds." (Oregon) is traveling 2,000 miles, and they have to play them on a Friday night. Friday night road games for the favorite never go well for those teams."

Very rare for an RB in this NFL, and RB's rarely get the big$$$ that other positions do in their 2nd contracts.

I know how that feels, I got my Masters and taught at Boise State for 2 years.

The Heisman has definitely become QB heavy. Between 1972-85. it was RB's Archie Griffin, 2 times in a row included. Tim Brown a WR, won it in 1997. Reggie Bush, Bo Jackson, Rashan Sallam and Derrick Henry have sprinkled in as RB's and Desmond Howard, Davanta Smith were WR winners, before the latest QB storm.

I'll push back here. Any discussion that brings in different points of views, different slants, ideas, and conducted with decorum, is right on time.

Jeanty is having a fantastic year, he was outstanding against Oregon. But that Oregon is not the Oregon, that led by Dillon Gabriel, beat Ohio State, while Boise State and Jeanty were playing Hawaii. Should the rest of the season keep going the way it has, I believe Gabriel will need to have bigger games, be more outstanding, than Jeanty will need to be.

All due respect for Hunter and Jeanty, but I think the Heisman winning player should be on a top 10 team at least.

Weren't the Best coaches in the B1G supposed to be Day & Riley? Instead, the best coaches are Lanning and Curt Cignetti at Indiana.

Yes. If Ohio State had managed the clock better in the final 1:40, kicked the field goal and won, no attention would have been given at all to Oregon's illegal substitution penalty.

From FANSIDED.COM Day later acknowledged that some things needed to change. We gotta find a way to win the game in the fourth quarter," he said. "We gotta take care of the football. We gotta win the rushing yards. We gotta hold them to less explosives than we did. We've got other things that we gotta clean up as well.” All of which is well and good; the Buckeyes do indeed need to work on all of those things and more. But exactly what evidence is there at this point that Day is the man to make that happen? He's in the middle of year six in Columbus, and while the overall record looks gaudy, his track record against elite teams — in other words, Ohio State's peers — is defined by doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result. So, who's insane here, Day. or Ohio State for keeping him?

I agree with this. In a way the game against Purdue, a short week, after a huge, emotional win, is scarier to me than the game in Wisconsin, and I picked the Ducks to win it by 4 touchdowns.
