Saturday game is the measuring stick for how this season plays out. Stay tuned!!

1 thru 1 = Ohio State
2- 11a = Everybody but Purdue which is 11b.

Michigan can get better but will remain beatable on almost every Saturday. Northwestern is as good as it will get. Other teams are catching up to them as they gain experience. Nebraska must rely on offense to carry them. Hold them to under 28 and you have a good chance of beating them. I'll make this statement, Iowa has the talent to improve the most on both sides of the ball as the season progresses. When I look at Minnesota, Purdue, Northwestern, and Nebraska the defenses are not going to improve much going forward. Looking at Wisconsin they are pretty much one dimensional on offense. Don't expect the passing game to improve much. Since Iowa doesn't play Indiana, Penn State, or Illinois it is a mute point for me.

So your saying that you think Iowa can win the Leaders and go to the Big Ten Championship Game.. Ok..

Since they are in the "Legends" division they can't win the leaders. The road games are Minnesota, Ohio State, Purdue, and Nebraska. Iowa gets Michigan, Northwestern, Wisconsin, and Michigan State at home. There are two road games that Iowa fares well in; MN and Purdue. Nebraska barely beat Iowa the last two years. It is winnable. The home contests offer bigger challenges, but Iowa could pull those out based on home field advantage and a team that is showing signs of getting better each week. Sorry I can't be the pessimist that dominate the football forum.

Ppassive aggressive : Adj:

A defense mechanism that allows people who aren't comfortable being openly aggressive get what they want under the guise of still trying to please others. They want their way, but they also want everyone to still like them.
