If we win out you never know! I am glad they lost! Maryland goes to Minnesota, and Rutgers plus they have tough home games vs Michigan and MSU so all of those could be close games. Michigan is hot and Rutgers even though they lost are very tough at home. The B10 is tough. Maryland could easily lose a some games. We just need to at least go 5-1 and hopefully 6-0. If we do i think we get no worse than 2nd having swept Wisc.

Minnesota will certainly give it their all. Their playoffs have in a sense all ready started and they must win. If they hit threes they can win at home vs about anyone.

Every game for us is important so take each one at a time but it is hard not to eye Iowa and at OSU. We should be favored in all of them except OSU and we could pull that off too.

This is setting up well for us. Sure there is a logjam, but we are in the driver seat of our own making. Win the easy ones (Nw and Neb), and we can knock off iowa, the other guys all have more tough games to close out than we do. That Iowa game is really important to me (I really don’t like them).

If he had connected i think it would have look like he did it on purpose even if he hadnt. That was really close. I do not think he meant to be it drew a T and certainly would look like it did it on purpose if he had of kicked him that hard in the back of the head..

Didn’t see the game but just watched clip of the play. Just from that looked nasty. He’s definitely lucky that didn’t land.

Maryland has a history of fading at the end of the season. Iowa too, FWIW.

Well in fairness, so do Illini. Illini have gone 1-5 and 2-4 last 6 games in the past 2 years. Iowa went 1-5 each of those years, while Maryland went 3-3 each of those years.
