Big Ten Football: Week 10 Predictions for Every Big Ten Final Score
In Week 10, every single Big Ten team will be playing football. Seven games in total will take place between Noon until Purdue and Michigan kick off at 7:30 under the lights. There are a couple of intriguing games to keep an eye on this Saturday. The first is Ohio State and Rutgers at Noon. While the Buckeyes should win handily, it’ll be interesting to see how a much improved Rutgers team can compete with Ohio State and for how long.
Also, Penn State is at Maryland at 3:30. The Terps are on a downward spiral, while the Nittany Lions haven’t looked very good lately. If Maryland is going to bounce back, this is the week it needs to show it can. Here’s how I think all seven games will go down this Saturday. Trent’s SU win/loss record through nine weeks: 67-10 Ohio State vs. Rutgers — Sat. Noon ET The Ohio State offense hasn’t been overly impressive the past two weeks, but the Buckeyes have Marvin Harrison Jr. who’s good for 100+ yards and a score. The Scarlet Knights are a much-improved football team and their record shows sitting at 6-2. But Ohio State is favored by 18.5 points for a reason, and if Rutgers can just hang with the Buckeyes — that’s a win in itself. Ohio State 31, Rutgers 17
I didn’t give Wisconsin much of a chance last weekend at home against Ohio State, and the Badgers played much better than I thought they would being without a few key players. Wisconsin should be able to bounce back from a loss last week and get back on track against an inconsistent Indiana team. Wisconsin 27, Indiana 10 Nebraska vs. Michigan State — Sat. Noon ET Don’t look now, but the Cornhuskers are in a four-way tie for the West Division. While this game is at Michigan State, the Spartans aren’t playing well at all and Nebraska has everything to play for. I look for Matt Rhule to have his players ready to go and get a big win on the road. Nebraska 21, Michigan State 14 Penn State vs. Maryland — Sat. 3:30 p.m. ET
