Wisconsin 38, Minnesota 13: Two days ago I was certain that the Gophers were going to at least make Bucky sweat in this one and had a real shot at pulling off the upset, and now I have come to my senses. Minnesota’s run defense is bad and Montee Ball, Melvin Gordon, and the Badger offensive line have no trouble picking up first downs at ease on their way to 300+ yards rushing. Meanwhile, Max Shortell will continue to struggle in B1G play missing open receivers with regularity and throw two crucial 1st half interceptions that will be cashed into points by the Badgers. This one will be over by halftime and I will be on the golf course, weather cooperating that is.
Michigan 24, Michigan State 13: This won't be a nail biter. Michigan will win this game somewhat comfortably. Michigan State lost way too many pieces offensively last year and were overrated to start the year. They are being exposed. An angry Michigan team will come out swinging right away looking to avenge back to back losses to the Spartans.
Nebraska 34, Northwestern 31: A Brett Maher FG with time expiring is the difference in this one. Both offenses will trade punches, but the Nebraska defense is just a little better and will come up with a key second half stop.
Ohio State 41, Purdue 27: I think the Boilermakers will make this a closer game than most think. However, for every Purdue score Braxton Miller will match it in spades.
Penn State 23, Iowa 16: The Penn State train continues as Matt McGloin torches the Iowa secondary for 300 yards and a pair of scores in Iowa City.
Indiana 44, Navy 30: The Hoosiers get off to a huge lead at half time and are able to hang on to the victory against a bad Navy team.
Last Week: 4-1, Overall 50-12 (.807)
