With the start of October comes our first full slate of Big Ten conference action. No more non-conference matchups to add to the mix this week as every team in the Big Ten is facing conference competition this weekend. And there are some good games to keep a close eye on this week with Michigan heading to Iowa, Brett Bielema’s return to Wisconsin, and Michigan State looking to snap a losing streak on the road against a Maryland team that gave the Wolverines a tough time last weekend.
Unfortunately, we did not have Big Ten staff picks to share last week, so call it a clean slate for everyone. But this is a new month, and Kevin and Sam are looking to close the gap with Andrew as we go through the second month of the college football season.
All games are scheduled for Saturday, October 1, 2022. All times are Eastern.
