In less than three weeks we'll be officially sharing Saturday as Big Ten basketball will officially be under way. But until we get there, enjoy another fall Saturday of football as the stakes start to raise considerably as we approach the tail end of the season.
Time | Game | Network | Line | Preview |
12:00 | Minnesota at Illinois | ESPNU | Minn -5.5 | Minnesota | Illinois |
12:00 | Maryland at Wisconsin | BTN | Wis -10.5 | Maryland | Wisconsin |
12:00 | Rutgers at Nebraska | ESPN2 | Neb -20.5 | Rutgers | Nebraska |
3:30 | Michigan at Michigan State | ABC | MSU -17 | Michigan | Michigan State |
8:00 | Ohio State at Penn State | ABC | OSU -13.5 | Ohio State | Penn State |
And here are my predictions for today's action. I had another 5-0 week so I've now gotten every game right the last two weeks so there's that. Let's see if I can make it three in a row.
Game | Prediction |
Minnesota at Illinois | Minnesota 31 Illinois 10 |
Maryland at Wisconsin | Wisconsin 27 Maryland 20 |
Rutgers at Nebraska | Nebraska 38 Rutgers 17 |
Michigan at Michigan State | Michigan State 31 Michigan 13 |
Ohio State at Penn State | Ohio State 38 Penn State 24 |
