Around the Big Ten

[AlabamAlum]

UGA-Mizzou and not Bama-LSU? Come on.

I'm looking for best value. I have UAT by 10 and I think Georgia wins by 28.

[UMStan White]

Before the season is over I want to say that Talent's weekly big ten prognostication is my favorite weekly post, (Just glad I haven't bet his choices)

[iam416]

Sparty. Jesus. Finding new ways to lose.

[Dr. Strangelove]

Lovie Claus! Another Christmas miracle!!!!

[klondike]

Sparty coach clowning around. Time to put yerself out to pasture.

[WingsFan]

Dantonio spent that second half with a comfortable lead working on his deposition instead of coaching

[edindetroit]

Final Four when it's all said and done...and in no particular order...

Ohio State...nobody is going to beat them before the FF...

Clemson...second verse...same as the first...

Alabama...ho hum...they will beat LSU...and Auburn...and win or lose in the SECCG they are in...

LSU...only loss to Bama...they get in as a second SEC team...

First 4 out:

PSU...loses to tOSU...but first team out...

Georgia...loses in SECCG...two losses keeps them out.

Oregon, Utah, Oklahoma...not gonna have the resume regardless...

So much for that.

And of all people, Brandon Peters outplayed Lewerke.

[iam416]

1-4 in conference and another 3-0 on specials. Seems about right.

[iam416]

1-4 in conference and 3-0 on specials. A staggeringly bad 34-45-1 in conference and 21-10-2 on specials.

Minnesota (+3) at IowaClemson (-34) vs. Wake Forest. I think Dabo is on the gas pedal with both feet.

. Cowboys have been a tough out. Utah State started out overrated. Lines are catching up, but I still think this one is close.

I am basing this pick on how Sparty has done on the road in Madison and Columbus against comparable defenses.

This is not a road game to Dantonio. In fact "WE have done pretty good in that stadium" (his words)..... and he has backed up that trash talk. Winning 4 of 5 ? I wouldn't be surprised if Michigan loses straight up.

Yeah, I took talent's prediction on this none to seriously. He's right about Brown though and, heh, his take that "if I know this, Brown does too," is as good of a quote as I've heard the talent make. But M's offense scoring 31+ Nope. Bad prediction ...... but then again, I'm really down on M's O and somehow feel like Patterson has gotten jobbed. He's taking more heat than he deserves probably.

I don't think M will cover but they will win. I see a 24 - 14 or so outcome and it won't be decided until late. Take Sparty to cover and the under.

[WingsFan]

Lewerke is listed as probable with a head/neck injury.


Dicktonio said he was fine?


Anyway if hes not healthy or Rocky plays M win easily.

[iam416]

I'm not super confident about the 31. I'm very confident that Sparty won't score more than 10 (I think 3). But, yeah, if you told me M won 16-3 then I wouldn't be shocked.
