Big Ten Week 4 Preview

Penn State plays Illinois on Friday night at 9:00 which is weird.   With the non-conference season mostly over, it will be nice to get back to conference play.   

Big Ten Game of The Week:

Wisconsin @ Iowa (Wisc -3):  Wisconsin is coming off a crushing loss to BYU at home and Iowa is quietly 3-0.  I'm sure Wisconsin is the better team, but we know its so hard to win at Iowa with their pink locker rooms, kids hospital wave, and playing at night.   Iowa 24 Wisconsin 21

Sneaky Big Ten Game of The Week:

MSU @ IU (MSU -5):  Please see what I wrote above and use it for this game.  MSU will struggle on the road again.   MSU 28 IU 27


Penn State @ Illinois (PSU -28) I think Illinois will cover but this won't be much of a game if you want to stay up to watch a Big Ten game at 9PM.   PSU 30 Illinois 17

Buffalo @ Rutgers (Buff -5.5):  Not a great game and one the Big Ten is probably going to take a loss.  Buffalo 31 Rutgers 14

Minnesota @ Maryland (MD -1):  I don't know about either team.  Minnesota has played well at home and Maryland looked good until last week.   Maryland 17 Minnesota 14

Tulane @ OSU (-37):  Please, OSU 58 Tulane 6

Boston College @ Purdue (BC -6.5) Yikes Purdue, many thought they would be a surprise team this season.  Saturday afternoon the Boilermakers will be 0-4, Surprise!  If you want to see the ex-Michigan LB recruit as one of the top RB's in the country, tape this game and take a look.   BC 30 Purdue 20
