College Football Week 8

I hear many good things about different bands and dance teams, but the Stanford Cardinal are very unique in every way. Their mascot is a tree and their band isn't a typical marching band. They like to break the rules when it comes to college football pageantry.

The experts say the Big Ten is having a down year for football. However every week there is at least one game with an interesting storyline or with national implications. This Saturday that game is Wisconsin at Michigan State. The Badgers lost conference loss came at East Lansing, and under Bret Bielema Wisconsin has had a hard time winning at Spartan Stadium. Bucky has won by 30 or more points in each of their victories in 2011, but that streak may come to an end this week. If the streak continues the national voters need to consider this team to be among the BCS title contenders.
