Purdue. If EMU can't beat an FCS team they have no dream vs Purdue.
NIU. They're playing well so far.
WMU. I'm hesitant picking them after they looked so bad against Illinois, but seriously, it's Minnesota. The Gophers won't get it together until late October I think.
Michigan. UMass doesn't stand a chance.
Akron. If they lose this one ...
Boise State. No question.
Ohio. Marshall will be very tough in front of a hostile home crowd in a night game but Ohio gets the job done.
BG. Best effort of the year so far. After being vanilla and mistake prone on offense, the BG O is clean, precise, and unpredictable, and the defense plays an outstanding effort to beat that team up north.
Indiana. I want to give this one to BSU and have them sweep but I just don't see it happening.
MarkL has spoken.
You may all now return to your daily lives.

You're right 24, this is a really tough week...some not very good Big 10 teams playing against some decent MAC squads. Never know what to expect. I do have one comment though...If Akron can't win against Morgan St., I won't even pick them to beat my high school team. Go MAC
