OK - have it your way. We didn't beat anybody.

Let's look at who beat us.

The "worst" team to beat us was Michigan State.
They beat us 40-31 - with Penix playing the whole game.
They were 3-1 and ranked No. 25.
They had just beaten NW 31-10.
We would eventually beat NW 34-3 with Ramsey.
They lost at Ohio State 34-10
We lost to Ohio State 51-10 with Ramsey getting his first replacement start.
They lost to Penn State at home 28-7.
We lost to Penn State at Penn State 34-27.
They lost to Michigan at Michigan 44-10.
We lost to Michigan 39-14.
They beat Rutgers 27-0.
We beat Rutgers 35-0.
They beat Maryland 19-16.
We beat Maryland 34-28.
Yeah - they beat us, but I'd say its fair to say we were competitive and comparable to MSU.

The next best team to beat us - Michigan.
They beat us 39-14.
They beat Rutgers 52-0, Maryland 38-7, MSU 44-10.
We beat Rutgers 35-0, Maryland 34-28, and lost to MSU 40-31.
We gave Penn State as good a game (L 34-27) as they did (L 28-21),
We gave Ohio State a decent game (51-10) compared to them (56-27).
Yes, they beat us - but we were competitive and comparable.

The next "best" team to beat us - Penn State.
They beat us 34-27
They beat Maryland 59-0, Purdue 35-7, Michigan 28-21, Michigan State 28-7.
Yeah, they beat us, but again, we were competitive.

Lastly, OSU beat us 51-10.
They beat Maryland 73-14. We beat Maryland 34-28.
They beat Michigan 56-27.
They beat Rutgers 56-21.We beat Rutgers 35-0.
They beat NW 52-3. We beat NW 34-3.
They beat Nebraska 48-7. We Nebraska 38-31.
They beat MSU 34-10.
They beat PSU 28-17.

So, MSU, Michigan and PSU we lost 113-72 (avg. 37.7 to 24).
Ohio State clocked everybody.
I'd say we can say we held up pretty well.
(But DAMN once again we somehow let MSU and PSU get away.)
