Ugh. Ohio State controls its Big Eleven destiny again, and may well win the Big Eleven title. And I was so looking forward to a year without Ohio State at the top.
And Iowa: seriously?!
Also, kinda funny (though not to ND fans) that ND, after the 40 year winning streak over Navy, has a losing record in the last three years to the Midshipmen. Since I’m in Maryland, I like the Middies.
