Every time we play a B10 team we get stuck with B10 officials, and I can't recall ever getting a perfectly fair shake with them. While I still think MAC officials are the most incompetent on earth, and that they believe themselves to be the most important people on the field, B10 officials always seem to have an agenda, and become difference makers in games.

Last night I watched the Iowa St v Wash St game. I didn't care who won, and if anything, because I like Mike Leach a lot, I probably was slightly favoring Wash St, if anything. However, Iowa St got such a conspicuous screw job by the B10 officials throughout that game it is hard to think they didn't need Wash st to win that game. I won't get into all the specific calls, and several of them had the TV announcers flabbergasted too, but they literally cost Iowa St a game they would have certainly won had it been fairly called; or even if the officials were just slightly favoring Wash St.

I know it's a tough job, and I get that humans make mistakes. But the consistency of B10 officials being biased or bad seems more than coincidence.

I thought we got a fair shake against Northwestern in their house a couple years ago.

But in general I agree. I thought Corey Davis could have filed sexual harassment against Eli Apple a few years ago he was grabbing him so much and getting away with it.

Officials couldn’t save UMs sorry butts today, LOL.

Nothing better than watching this group of 4 and 5 star players with their overpaid coaches getting embarrassed on the big stage.

Same U-M team that demolished our Broncos.

Not a good feeling.

Not too different from our bowl game. Really tight at the half, then a big collapse in the second half.

After all the CFP talk that brought the Walmart crowd out of the woodwork during the regular season, I’ve experienced some schadenfreude at them getting demolished in their final 2 games.

This team was capable of at least looking like they belonged... if the staff cared to actually try to win.

Lester needs to make his team feel confident going into these types of games...
