Rivalry week is upon us in the Big Ten and there is a ton at stake in the conference.
All eyes will be on Michigan and Ohio State at noon ET on Fox. Both teams enter the contest undefeated for the first time since 2006 and both teams are injury plagued. It will be crucial for both teams to be as healthy as possible and to get their respective playmakers back for this game.
In the Big Ten West, Iowa and Nebraska will play on Friday. If Iowa defeats the Cornhuskers, the Hawkeyes will advance to the Big Ten Championship against the winner of Michigan and Ohio State. If the Hawkeyes lose, Purdue will go as long as it wins. The only other team that has a chance to go from the West is Illinois. The Illini need a lot of help. They must win and need both Iowa and Purdue to lose.
With so much at stake this weekend, here are my predictions for each Big Ten game in Week 13.
