At the quarter of the way point, I am satisfied.
Oregon State—Exactly what I thought.
UCONN—we needed to give them that butt whipping
Notre Dame—a little better than what I thought if you take away ND’s home cooking and a lack of urgency from Purdue.
Illinois—should be a lot like UCONN, 43-10 this time.
Minnesota—I really hate these guys, should we a war, 39-30
Iowa—they’re good for a reason, Hawks 31-17
Wisconsin—I’m going with the upset, 34-28
Nebraska—Will Frost still be around? Good guys 38-13
Michigan State—Sparty has been a surprise, but they’re back down to earth, Boilers 28-17
Ohio State—Although the last time these two joined up was the most fun I’ve had at a game, the Buckeyes prevail 28-17.
Northwestern—played at Wrigley will be a distraction for the Wildcats. Purdue takes it 34-19
Indiana—Hoosiers are overrated and lack a quality QB as the bucket returns to its rightful home in West Lafayette. After a closer than expected first half, Purdue finished them off, 37-21.
Onto the bowl game: Since Penn State makes the CFP, Michigan will go to the Rose, Iowa the Citrus, Ohio State the Fiesta, the Boilers will take on a scrappy Ole Miss squad.
