Oregon at Iowa could be really interesting. BYU and Texas Tech should be good too. I wonder how Nebraska will do this week. Should be UCLA, but down their starting QB will be a test.

Not a great slate of Big Ten Matchups this weekend.

Oregon at Iowa is clearly the best. Will be interesting to see how Iowa does against Oregon, maybe the Hawkeyes will soften them up a little for us.

Hopefully Washington can extend Wisconsin's scoreless streak at home (back to back home shutouts for the Badgers).

Nebraska has gotten to bowl eligibility but can they avoid going in the tank down the stretch with out Raiola?
 

We are in the part of the season where I pull for whatever team's win means a better bowl game for the Gophers. That, and I'd like to see the maximum number of B1G teams in the playoff (which also helps Gopher bowl selection) to offset the annual fawning over the SEC. If you've read more than four of my posts here, you will have a pretty good idea I dislike the SEC, a lot.
 

Observation.

Iowa is un-ranked and Oregon is #6.

On the surface this is a game where the ranking indicates an easy weekend for Oregon.

But every fan seems to know this is a big game and lots of folks are interested in it in spite of the rankings.

Is northwestern actually good?

For some reason, Northwestern consistenty performs above their level of raw athlectism. It's the opposite for USC. As we saw last night, once USC put the car in drive, they pretty much blew Northwestern off the field.

What I worry about in our game against Northwestern is that Komolafe will run all over us. I thiink Stone and the passing game can be held in check. The Northwestern defense is also decent.
