Continuing the theme there are no cupcakes (outside of IU) in conference this season, MSU lost at home to Northwestern last night. That adds one more aspect to what the Spartans will bring into Columbus Saturday. The formula to become the conference champion, that teams usually have to try to meet or be better than, is that a Big 10 team must win all their games at home and split, 50/50, games on the road. So, the Spartans now have to make up a loss at home versus the Buckeyes. It’s going to be a very hard fought game, I believe, given that Ohio State was blown out at Illinois Tuesday and will not be in a very good mood themselves that day.
Also, the Iowa Hawkeyes defeated the Wisconsin Badgers last night in Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Things are really starting to heat up in the Big Ten as it is becoming apparent conference teams are as evenly matched as any in recent memory. No one is invincible.
