Harbaugh is rubbing those with power the wrong way. I’m sure the BIG has the same attorney’s with the current Commissioner as they did with Warren “Previous Commissioner”. Then the BIG attorneys allow Harbaugh to be disciplined by Pettit who utilized player safety as a key to the penalty? Pettit and the BIG attorneys couldn’t have been more ignorant to know that Mel Tucker was given a pass
after the tunnel incident. That was Tucker’s accountability - players and coaches. Isn’t that why Harbaugh was punished without due process, he is accountable for players and coaches ?


Therefore. This entire cr@p must be stemming from something more because all teams utilize advantages especially monitoring how the other team prepares to beat another.

Actually both teams need to stay focused for this weekend to make the OSU vs MICH matchup remain vital! It is refreshing to hear a response about winning on the field!

They should start doing the SEC maneuver of having a virtual bye week the week before THE GAME. Nothing like Abilene Christian and Louisiana-Monroe to get you ready.

Penn State might be competing for the second best team if it were in the SEC, but has to realize that they are a solid 3 in the BIG.

Boo U couldn't beat JMU if Dinucci were still their QB.

With that offense? I look at the SEC and I see them maybe 5th in the SEC this year.

Let’s put half the field in snow and the other half set it on fire.
Maybe change it to Rainbow Road in the second half

The fact you need to put all these qualifiers on the game says it all

Crazy how NIL has leveled the playing field. Now those SEC states can redirect some of those tax dollars from player pay to infrastructure and garbage removal.

Do you think the Big Ten West can fall under that line item?

Granted, the Conference is already trying by bringing in the Pac12

They fly around on defense but not against 7 deep O’Linemen. Michigan and Ohio State have made many opposing offenses look bad, PSU was one of them, ask 8th ranked Utah who were slicing through USC, twice if Boo U can play.

Sources are saying he was getting too many unsolicited DM's from Mel Tucker.

Well given the rumors of his involvement in a gambling right? Seems notable.

Yes, because those that are truly innocent settle and agree to a punishment.

So much for the witch hunt theory.
