Well, I am surprised, and I can’t deny it.  

If you would have told me Ohio State would allow zero sacks, or have over 300yards of passing, or have over 570 yards, or put up 62 on th nation’s best defense, or allow virtually zero explosive plays, I would have peed myself.

At some level, you can hate Meyer, but you have to give him some props.

Meanwhile, at Camp Randall, Minnesota's lead has gone from 3-0 to 17-0 in six plays.

so, the question is:  can Ohio St. jump Georgia and Oklahoma to get in the playoff?
Georgia has to defeat Alabama in the SEC Championship game for there to be any chance two SEC teams make the playoff. Oklahoma and Ohio State have one common opponent, TCU.
Ohio St 40 - TCU 28 (Ohio Stadium)
Oklahoma 52 - TCU 27 (Amon G. Carter Stadium @ TCU)
I think the only objective way to look at this is to compare results with a common opponent, and compare strength of schedule. Per Sagarin, and this would be through Nov. 17, Ohio State's SOS was 53rd; Oklahoma's 43rd. Congrove today has Ohio State's SOS 8th and Oklahoma's 15th. Not sure if that is for games through today because we would expect Ohio State's SOS to rise this week, having played Michigan. The computer rankings are all over the place ranking SOS.
When teams get past the conference playoffs, Oklahoma's SOS is likely to get stronger relative to Ohio State's. I doubt Northwestern will pass Texas in this week's polling.
If I were voting, I'd vote for Oklahoma at this point, provided both teams win their playoff. Too bad for the Big Ten Notre Dame had a signature season.

Hornibrook is playing, and he just drove the skunks to a TD with 1 second left in the half. 

LB Cashman was sent off for targeting. 

17-7 Gophers at the break. Skunks get the second half kickoff.

Thanks for the correction. Probably hurts Ohio State's chances getting into the playoff, even more, though.

Sounds like Iowa made the right choice recruiting him as a linebacker.

Can't win at the Camp kicking field goals. 

And here's another burned timeout from PJ. Game management is something he's really got to work on.

Refs giving this game away from the start.  Running into the kicker when the guy hit the plant leg, hands to the face, unnecessary roughness on PSU until the crowd booed so they changed it....

Another drive stalled just outside the red zone. 42 yard FG is good. 

23-7 Gophers with 1:02 left in the 3rd. 

Ive been a Gopher fan for too long, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
