MO's Big Ten Predictions for Week 5

Conference games start with a lot of great matchups this week.  Although I will only

be able to partially see them, the floor football guru makes the following predictions:

Games	Prediction
Northwestern (DS) @ Illinois (KCoo/KW)	In the Big Ten’s first trophy game, give the Land of Lincoln Trophy to Illinois. Prediction:  Illinois by 7
Penn State (CS) @ Indiana (KA)	Indiana only won one non-conference game, and their opponents weren’t exactly goliaths.  They’ll be lucky to win a single game in conference play. Prediction:  Penn State by 21
Iowa (BD/GB)	BYE
Minnesota (SCan) @ Michigan (KCar)	Michigan will run rampant on Minnesota. Prediction:  Michigan by 17
Michigan State (BH/JJ) @ Ohio State (SL)	BH needs to lose some football games, and this is one of them, but it will be really close.  Give the home team the close win. Prediction:  Ohio State by 1.
Nebraska (JMSOO) @ Wisconsin (LF/MR)	The biggest game in the big ten schedule.  Everyone has these two teams penciled in for the championship game and rightfully so.  This will be a great game, but I think it will come down to QB play and will give the edge to the home team’s Wilson over Martinez. Prediction:  Wisconsin by 3
Notre Dame @ Purdue (AM/MO)	Notre Dame just has more athletes than Purdue, but expect a close game. Prediction:  Notre Dame by 5
