Wisky will be the only squad that upholds the honor of the Big Ten.

So you are saying the Big10 goes 1-7 in the Bowls?

[frank-n-beans]

I can't see 'em winning more than 1 game, and that will be a tough one. OSU goes 0-10.

[Hoggy]

I can't see 'em winning more than 1 game, and that will be a tough one. OSU goes 0-10.

I hope that you are wrong frank-n-beans, but the past performances of OSU against the SEC makes it tough to predict a victory. I have confidence in them though and can hope for a victory and a chance to get the monkey of OSU's back.

Now for the whole conference, are you being serious? Do you honestly believe that the Big10 will lose every game?

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

yahoo sports picked every big ten team to lose. i took them off my christmas card list, lol.

[Mercerville Monster]

Only game I can see then winning is the Wisconsin matchup against TCU. Northwestern may end up pulling out a win as well.

As far as them two teams, I don't see any other chances for the Big 10.

Iowa is missing almost every offensive threat they have.

Illinois is as inconsistent as a team can be and Baylor will probably throw all over them.

No way will the Gators lose Meyers last game at UF plus they are better than PSU which makes this game a blowout.

I'm not even gonna give the Michigan game much of a thought. They will probably score 30 but to bad MSU will score 60.

Alabama is a whole class above MSU. Alabama has every advantage in the skill player department. This one may get ugly, especially if Julio Jones does what he did against Auburn.

And I think the Buckeyes will keep it very close with Arkansas. If there was any team in the SEC that they could match up with in the bowl games it was Arkansas. This could be the year they get the SEC monkey off of their back but I doubt they will. Mallet will raise his draft stock in this one.

there is potential for a goose egg but i doubt it.

Unfortunately, I am. Wisconsin MIGHT get by TCU, there is a speed factor from the MWC the Big 11 has chosen to ignore :12224 :12224 :12224 . Michigan will score often, but the Defense couldn't stop my 12 yr. old daughter. NU lost their QB, Illinois has Zook running the ship, MSU's record is a product of the conference, Iowa underachieves almost EVERY year, PSU just sucks and OSU is reminded this isn't the MAC. Bollman and Tress's conservative game plan falls apart after they fall behind by 2 TD's. Remember, Tressel has NEVER recovered from a deficit of more than 11 points, EVER . This will not change on 1/4/11. Panic sets in and chaos ensues. However, the distractions of the Salesmen will be the reason given for yet another beat-down by the teams from down under. But , I could be wrong. 8) 8) 8)

iowa is looking good early

[28Buck]

Love the resident CBF experts
Iowa gets win #1 for the Big 10

[Hoggy]

Well, the Big10 will not lay a goose egg in the bowls this year. Hopefully this is the first of many Big10 victories!

[seofan_via_dublin]

Iowa remembers they have a good defense, and gets a good win for Tge conference.

1-0

[seofan_via_dublin]

Iowa gave a good start, the rest of the games are a lick for no worse than 3-5.

The record will likely be 4-4, and if all chips fall to the Big 10 side they could go 6-2, but that is highly unlikely.

Iowa won
Wisconsin, OSU will win
Illinois should win
Michigan should win
I can't bet against PSU in a bowl, though they face tough odds, I don't expect them to win, but would not be surprised at all to see JoPa get the win.
MSU has to pull a major upset, but it's possible. Bama could very well get beat but I fully expect the Tide to roll.
Northwestern has NEVER won a bowl game, they won't this year.

If I'm betting my money, I go 3-5. I expect 4-4, but not confident. I'm nit surprised if they get 5 wins.

[Charge]

Iowa's win was impressive to me cause they did it with two of their best players suspended. Way to step up Iowa!

[seofan_via_dublin]

I love how some are dismissing the Buckeyes chances based on their bowl record against the SEC.
Then they ignore that Michigan has treated the SEC like Mike Vick treats dogs, when addressing their bowl game.
