I have a funny feeling that Northwestern might give Iowa a tussle.

Wisconsin should handle the trip to Rutgers without too many problems.

Purdue hosts Michigan State. Should be interesting!

Will be interesting to see if Purdue catches MSU in a bit of a letdown game after the big win over Michigan yesterday. They will be riding high with the rivalry win and almost certain high ranking in the CFP standings. Good time to catch them potentially for a solid Purdue team.

Control RB Ken Walker and you have a chance re MSU. Michigan couldn’t do it …

the odds to win the B1G West, and the rest of the season will be fun to watch. Minnesota has the best odds, but it is far from a sure thing.

Take a look:

  • Minnesota – 43.7%
  • Wisconsin – 33.1%
  • Iowa – 21.8%
  • Purdue – 1.4%

ESPN's FPI updates odds to win B1G West entering November

Who wins the West?

I have no idea how they calculate these odds, but I like 'em! It's strange though because I believe FPI ranks both Iowa and Wisc above Minnesota by a good margin, no? But these odds assume MN beats them both or other scenarios like losing to Iowa, beating Wisc, and Nebraska beating Iowa.

Again, like the odds and it's fun to be in this position with 4 games to go! This is what we all hoped for...

I still don't believe in Mich St. Granted, good for them on the win. But maybe that just also confirms my belief that Mich is also a pretender.
