FWIW, Maryland is going to be using their 5th string QB (who is a linebacker). I doubt they score that many points, especially considering they will be playing against a team that will eat up clock, causing Maryland to have fewer possessions than normal. I also think Clemson beats Duke by 25+

Didn't realize that.

WHY DID YOU NOT CHOOSE FSU TO BEAT THE BYE WEEK?!?!?!

 

[KansasSooner]

Only two teams have managed to score more than 40 points on Kansas, they both had good defenses. Baylor has no defense. My upset pick for the week, KU over Baylor.

An upset would not surprise me. Not because of the match-up between KU and Baylor, but because I can see it being a trap game for Baylor. They have OU in Norman next weekend.

Kansas has given up 30+ points in 3 games, which is the 3 road games Kansas has. I think Baylor will do better against Kansas than NIU did. Although NIU has a good offense, I think Baylor's is much better.

 

[BucksFanInGA]

zero chance we hold Illinois to 16....

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I think Michigan State beats us by more than 3

 

[iowajerms]

I'm guessing you are thinking 17 is what it should be. I predicted Illinois to score 13.

 

[NDHoosier101]

I'm thinking IU upsets Iowa, wisky, and purdue to win the division...

I know there is some sarcasm in there, but I originally had IU beating Iowa but switched it. I still might have Iowa losing. I did notice Indiana has scored a lot of points. So has teams that play Iowa. I have Iowa winning because Iowa looked really good in the 4th quarter against Northwestern so I'm hoping they continue that.

 

[NDHoosier101]

There was a little, but I truly believe IU has a shot, we can lose to Penn St. and still win the division, our offense is actually pretty good. It all starts this Saturday @ home, gut check time...

It's hard telling with Iowa. They are such a roller coaster this season.

They were a catch away from beating Iowa State and they beat Michigan State and crushed Minnesota.

They also have those terrible games, like losing to CMU and getting crushed by Penn State and Northwestern.

I think it depends which Iowa team shows up.
