Week 10 is upon us and we get all 14 of the Big Ten teams back in action this week. Bye weeks are done and it is time for the stretch run through the conference to determine quite a few things.
The Big Ten has five teams with bowl eligibility confirmed and eight of them still with a chance at postseason play. While some may not be playing for the conference at this point, many are playing to continue their seasons.
Right now, these predictions are hitting at a 78% clip, going 31-9 through eight weeks. We didn’t do the first week as Big Ten teams had staggered starts to the season but since we have been picking the winner, these predictions are red hot.
Since we only cover five games, two are left out. Unfortunately, Ohio State (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) at Northwestern (1-7, 1-3 Big Ten) and Penn State (6-2) at Indiana (3-5) didn’t make the cut for me. Nonetheless, a score prediction for both.
Prediction: Ohio State 56, Northwestern 0
Prediction: Penn State 31, Indiana 10
