[Husker] Turnovers

[Tim Silvey]

Hence the word "now" in my post.  Saying that, the Big 10 hasn't been a real top tier conference for years.  Having one team make a BCS Bowl and getting blown out is just like the ACC/Big East.  The best teams in the Big 10 this year would not finish in the top 6 in the SEC, that is certain.  
If PSU and OSU are what the conference has to hang their hat on this year, my point is made for me.


"Not the victory but the action.
  Not the goal but the game.
   In the deed the glory."
