Honestly, as of right now, each game is 50/50

Scary to say but HH might be the best QB in the West, think about that.

Northwestern might be the "best" team left and by that I mean they are clearly flawed but they are not insane.  I will explain.

Purdue is already over their new coach and it hurts even more that their old coach is tearing it up.  They are done.

Maryland did it again!  Started off nice and now went crazy.

MSU can't wait for the season to end.

Wisconsin hates life because they have no idea what they are doing

Iowa is terrified because their entire season is about beating NU and they got smoked last year at home and they are worried it will happen again this year.

These games are all 50/50

Just keep winning BABY!!!

 
This was always going to be a rebuilding year, but if we had only half the injuries and a portal quarterback better than our returning back-up, you'd have to like our chances to take the West in Rhule's first year.

I don't think we make it, but six wins and a bowl should still be on the table. 

Not sure how much to celebrate, but I'll take it.
