PSU
However, one big caveat is look out for Iowa. Know a couple of Hawkeye fans who now think they are in the “driver’s seat.” They figure that the gophers lose to either PSU or Bucky and they win out. Not the most likely of scenarios, but watch out if Iowa beats WI. The IA game would become the toughest of the remaining three at that point.
This is the order I'm going. Agree or disagree?
Maryland
@Northwestern
@Iowa
Wisconsin
Penn State
I'd flip NW and Maryland. Maryland just scares me from recent memory.
If Northwestern was home, and this week, I'd agree.
At the point we are playing Northwestern, it will be cold and rainy at NW'ern. Also, as mentioned, they could be on a win streak.
I see it:
MD - 70% win
NW - 55% win
Iowa - 48% win
Wisconsin 42% win
Penn State 35% win
Maryland might be the easier of the remaining five, but they give MN a heap of matchup trouble.
Northwestern, Iowa, and Wisconsin are tossups. Can't pencil them in as a win.
Penn State will be tough to upset.
I'd be very happy if the Gophers are 3-2 in the remaining games.
If one of those 3 wins is against the winner of Iowa vs Wisconsin, 10-2 gets us to Indy. Just let that marinate for a bit.
