Iowa hasn't beaten a team with a conference win yet (0-18)

[maliksealy]

Just sayin'

Of the 1 (conference) loss big ten teams here are the conference records of the teams they beat:
Michigan 4-8
Northwestern 3-9 (beat UCLA)
USC 3-9 (beat Michigan)
Minnesota 2-10
UCLA 1-11
Iowa 0-12

If the big ten turned from a 3 bid league to a 4 bid league, it almost has to come from these teams - UCLA + Illinois + Nebraska + Washington

Don’t think a 3 loss team can make it from the big ten this year

It sort of makes sense at this point in the season.

Correct
So early to have wins it means the other teams have to have losses
None of these teams have beaten an undefeated team for some reason

Interesting factoid! I don't have much memory of conference standings in the middle of seasons but it seems like there are an unusually large number of teams who are winless in conference so far: 5.

Iowa has played three of those and will play one more (Mich State) later in the season. Of course, we have played two of those and will play two more later in the season. Iowa does have Oregon and USC after their game with the Gophers. We have only Oregon but Northwestern is looking more formidable than anyone expected this season. They've also beaten two teams who are winless in conference and beat UCLA before they started their current streak.

The 18 team conferences makes schedules SOOOO imbalanced

People didn’t like west and east because of imbalanced schedules but they’re way more imbalanced now
