Big Ten Week Six Picks

I went 5-2 in picking Big Ten games last week and 4-2 in interconference games putting me at 51-11 in Big Ten games and 5-2 in interconference games. I went 2-1 outside the Big Ten so am 8-7 outside of it.

Maryland @ Ohio St: Pick: Ohio St
Indiana @ Penn St: Pick: Penn St
Illinois @ Iowa: Pick: Iowa
Northwestern @ Michigan: Pick: Michigan
Wisconsin @ Nebraska: Pick: Wisconsin
Minnesota @ Purdue: Pick: Minnesota
Michigan St @ Rutgers: Pick: Michigan St

Outside the Big Ten
Georgia @ Tennessee: Pick: Georgia
California @ Utah: Pick: Utah
Oklahoma St @ West Virginia: Pick: West Virginia

Well just one week into the Big Ten season and already from what weve seen there is going to be lots of surprises from what we expected. Iowa, Northwestern, and Michigan are all much better than anticipated while Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Minnesota are all pretty big dssapointments so far. Everyone thought the Big Ten west was going to belong to the Badgers but now it doesnt seem out of the realm of possibility they could finish as low as 5th in their division. Meanwhile Michigan St and Ohio St have struggled against far inferior opponents leading some to believe maybe Michigan could contend already for a Big Ten title. Not much can be solidly determined in the standings after just one week but here is what we have

West
1. Northwestern: 1-0
2. Iowa: 1-0
3. Illinois: 1-0
4. Wisconsin: 0-1
5. Minnesota: 0-1
6. Nebraska: 0-1
7. Purdue: 0-1

East
1. Michigan St: 1-0
2. Ohio St: 1-0
3. Michigan: 1-0
4. Penn St: 1-0
5. Indiana: 0-1
6. Rutgers: 0-1
7. Maryland: 0-1
