Northwestern ( 3-2) @ Minnesota (4-1)- Minnesota @ home coming off a Bye, Northwestern on the road after 2 physical games they won. I see Minnesota approaching the game similar to Wisconsin's approach vs Northwestern, which NU won, but Minnesota has a better QB than Bucky. Gophers win 24-20.
Illinois ( 3-3) @ Wisconsin (3-2)- Wisconsin wins as long as Melvin Gordon stays healthy. 30-14.
Indiana (3-2) @ Iowa (4-1)- if this game was in Bloomington and Iowa wasn't coming off a Bye, I would definitely pick the Hoosiers. I don't think Iowa is very good, but it's one of those games that gets Kirk Ferentz B1G COY awards. Iowa 27-25.
Michigan State (4-1) @ Purdue (3-3) - you would think big route, but MSU is coming off huge physical night win against Nebraska, Purdue is playing at home and playing a tad better. Sparty 35-16.
Penn State (4-1) @ Michigan (2-4) - here is the deal, I don't think Penn State is 4-1 good or that Michigan is 2-4 bad. Throw the records out. If Michigan is going to a Bowl Game and salvage what is left of the 2014 season, this Home Night Game is a MUST WIN. I'm picking Michigan 27-17.
