Can we go back in time to the thread where we were discussing what great additions to the Big 10 Maryland and Rutgers were?

So that should have been one of the most memorable wins for Notre Dame of the past decade but Malik's injury puts a huge damper on things.


That said, I'm not ready to throw the towel in on the season yet. Deshone Kizer was a big time recruit a few years ago. Maybe ND will get lucky and he'll step up.

April Goss finally got her chance and kicked her way into history.

A four-year member of Kent State's team, Goss kicked an extra point in the first half of her team's 45-13 rout of Delaware State, becoming the second woman to score in a major college football game.

Wearing No. 91, Goss made the kick with 4:30 left in the second quarter, giving the Golden Flashes a 29-6 lead. Following the touchdown, starting kicker Shane Hynes initially went on the field, but coach Paul Haynes called a timeout and brought in Goss.

Her kick veered right off the hold, but cleared the crossbar and she was mobbed by her teammates. Once Goss got to the sideline, she shared hugs with all of Kent State's coaches and was congratulated by university president Dr. Beverly Warren.

Katie Hnida kicked a pair of extra points for New Mexico in 2003. According to STATS LLC, Goss, who was a soccer player in high school before deciding to try football, appears to be the only woman currently on a Division I roster.

Haynes had been trying to get Goss into a game for the past two seasons. Before her historic kick, the closest she came was making the game-winning extra point in the 2014 spring game.

Earlier this week, Haynes had high praise for Goss.

"She works her tail off. She's the first one out there in practice and the last one off the field," he said. "Every time someone gets up and talks, one of our players gets up and talks, they always talk about they've got brothers, and a sister."

Bowling Green ran 105 plays and outgained Maryland, 692-341. The 692 yards of total offense is the most under head coach Dino Babers. The 48 points is tied for the most under Babers. The Falcons also outgained Maryland on the ground, 201-156.

Redshirt-senior quarterback Matt Johnson completed 36-of-55 passes for 491 yards and six touchdowns. The 491-mark ranks second in school history, while his six touchdown tosses ties a school record. Johnson also became the first Falcon to throw for over 400 yards in back-to-back games, as he threw for 424 last Saturday (Sept. 5) vs. Tennessee.

BGSU looked scary on offense yesterday. If that's what we look like when our offense clicks, then drat, it's gonna be an awesome season. Our defense was better than it was last game, and we didn't really get destroyed this time. Granted Maryland is a bottom tier Big Ten team, and UT is supposedly pretty good, so we'll have time to see. There is no team in the MAC that can handle this kind of offense, so if we can have the defense continue to improve and clean up the stupid penalties (I'm not even gonna mention the Special Teams right now), I can see another MAC title on the way.

Matt Johnson is going to break the single season record for passing this year for the school easily at this rate, and might have a shot for the NCAA record, as long as he stays healthy. Had he been our QB last year, we probably would have won the MAC again. Coppet/Greene are a nice thunder/lightning punch as well.

Memphis will be a challenge next week, but hopefully after two games on the road, we can put up a good fight. Purdue after that, and they're not that great either. If we can come out of this OOC schedule as 2-2, both wins against the B10, I'll be thrilled.

Does Pitt have a good defense or is Akron just that bad on the offensive side? I know they didn't do anything against Oklahoma which looks to have a really good defense this year.

Toledo’s victory at Arkansas coupled with Bowling Green’s rout at Maryland on Saturday give the MAC 24 wins over Power 5/Big East teams from 2010 to the present. The MAC has beaten eight different Big Ten programs. Northern Illinois takes a four-year streak of Power 5 victories into No. 1 Ohio State on Saturday. Maybe the Huskies extend the streak against Boston College a week later.

Thanks for capturing this. I let out a tremendous "OOHHHHH poo poo" when that happened.


Also why the gently caress is FSU/BC a Friday game?

People sure seem to be down on Oregon after they lost an away game by 3 to a top 5 team with a quarterback who's been there for a month.

Finally got around to watching highlights of Oregon-MSU and I came away a little bit puzzled as to how that's a "statement win" for MSU. Vernon Adams's inaccuracy throughout the game (is he just that bad of a passer or was it the busted finger?) had a lot more to do with the outcome than anything MSU did imo.

This is what I was trying to say last week. ASU was vastly overrated to start the season because Todd Graham talked up the team well and a lot of people jumped on the ASU bandwagon but given that Todd Graham only jumps off the wagon (and onto another) you'd think people would have learned by now...

Since it's starting to get out there now, I'll give the full rumor on Carroo. I do NOT have reputable knowledge, this is just what is going around.

Supposedly he was having an affair with a Rutgers recruiting "hostess". After the game on Saturday, this hostess ran into Carroo's mother and girlfriend, and they got into an altercation outside of the athletics center. Carroo learned of it, and sprinted out of the locker room. The hostess attacked Carroo's mother, and Carroo responded by slamming the hostess into the ground.
