Please post your top two Big Ten teams..... also edit your previous rankings where you had Michigan beating us. We will win that game and all the other games. You're just gonna look bad at the end of the year if you don't make the change :)
 
Interesting. If Jon has Michigan beating Iowa, it would only make sense that he pick OSU to beat Iowa as well. However, he also had Michigan in the Cap1, which would suggest two teams in the BCS.
 
I predict Jon predicts a tie in the standings between tOSU and Iowa. He will have the Hawks winning at home against tOSU and both teams tying at 7-1

That would get both teams in the BCS again

Personally speaking, it wouldn't make much sense to pick Iowa to lose at Michigan but beat OSU.
 
As Jon posted earlier, Michigan's O seems to be more difficult for Iowa to defend. If UM's O improves like he is predicting, UM will be a difficult away game.

OSU is a better team than UM but their style of play is a better match up for Iowa. The home field makes this game winnable.

I agree with Jon. I see Iowa losing at UM and winning against OSU. I think that OSU will also lose at UW. Iowa will beat UW. Iowa wins the Big10.
 
Man, Michigan sure does get a lot of love around here for doing absolutely nothing lately. Their offense will score a lot of points, but I think that their D is going to lose a lot of games for them.
 
Disagree.

You are right, what was I thinking?

Who in their right mind would think it would make more sense to win on the road but lose at home? (Home = Kinnick Stadium: a place where, since 2000, only 5 teams have won. And, Iowa is one of the teams.)

My apologies for attempting to be logical.
 
Part of the reason Michigan gets so much "love" as you call it- is you just don't know what to expect from them. It really is not a big stretch to say Michgan can beat Iowa. Michigan does and always will have tremendous athletic ability... if they get a quality team performance as a result of that ability is another story. This is where Iowa will win this game- putting together a stronger, disciplined team performance.

Like having tOSU at home and Michigan on the road rather than the other way around though.

Two people can't disagree? When did it turn into group think or nothing around here?
