Lot of interesting matchups in Big Ten.

Illinois, can they stay competitive with Penn St, similar to staying in it vs USF last week?
Nebraska, do they continue the slide?
Purdue, desperately needs a win, but BC is looking very legit!
Rutgers I think has a legit shot to lose to Buffalo, which is looking like a MAC front-runner so far.
Can Indiana stay with or maybe even beat Michigan St?? Or can Sparty bounce back from their rough start?
And of course Wisco, got a very tough game in a very tough place to play!
 

Lots of interesting games. Will likely watch a lot of football if the Gophers win. Much less if they lose.
 





I want:

Iowa over Wisconsin (We have a better chance of beating Iowa head 2 head and getting that tiebreaker)

Illinois over Penn State (Duh)

Indiana over MSU (Keep the Indiana story going)

Nebraska over Michigan (We need to be 2nd behind OSU for a Rose Bowl berth)

FAU vs UCF tonight.

Not a horrible watch.

Iowa win and Gopher win with a two week build up probably means an extra 4,000 tickets sold? Prices averaging $125...extra half million in revenue?

We recruit against Illini, not so much Penn State...we want Illini to suck...Penn State plays Iowa and WI yet, want them to be good...We want Penn State in a big bowl come year end, improves Gophers bowl pecking order.

FAU vs UCF tonight.

Not a horrible watch.

Bad 'no call' on targeting here. FAU playing close with UCF here early in the second. Just scored to tie the game 14-14.

But honestly.........could FAU's jerseys be any less ugly? It looks like they went to an elementary school for the design, cleaned up the things that made no sense, and then sent the mock ups to weisjersey.nk.
 

FAU playing well, although UCF looks more talented. That RB for FAU is really good though (Singletary)
 

I'm interested in seeing WSU at USC. Tracy Claeys defense. Had a guy at work tell me he was betting on USC, I said I wouldn't be surprised it WSU wins outright. Should be a good game, interesting to watch. On ESPN tonight.
 

Penn State starting to pull away from the Illini.

Go Gophers!!
 




Uhhh no. Illinois kicks a FG at end of first half. Penn St up 21-17.

Illinois has a great offensive running game!

I’m telling y’all, Illinois ain’t any kind of guaranteed win. Not a chance. No one is this year.
 




Come on, chant it with me… Big 10 west… Big 10 west…
 

Illinois is not going to be an easy game for the Gophers. They looked improved.
 

Looks like Illinois only took 1 minute in the fourth quarter to fall off a cliff and directly onto their collective face.
 

Illinois has a good looking QB in Rivers.
 

Penn State simply has much more talent depth.
