I know this thread is going to be full of LOL Rutgers which is fine, but this is my national championship right here. We didn't just win, we looked like a legitimately good football team. Seriously go look at some highlights, some of Pop Watson's throws were nuts. I almost wonder if this might be the year we manage our first ever bowl bid. I'm so happy y'all

For sure. This is really going to be hammered home to fight back against the whole "Big 10 supremacy" thing.

Unfortunately they did not, although the OOC zingers were pretty damn funny
