Seven B1G squads are taking the field in bowl games (should be 8, a hearty holiday Fuck You to Mark Emmert), and all but two have spreads inside of a touchdown. A strong showing would give the conference a much needed boost perception-wise. Here we go:
Minnesota -4 vs Syracuse: my pick: Syracuse. I think this is a FG game either way, and Cuse's defensive strength is against the run. I see a low scoring affair
Michigan +3.5 vs Kansas State: my pick: Michigan. The Fat Man will have the MaizeNBlue ready to go, I see an outright Walverine win here
Nebraska +9 vs Georgia: my pick: Nebraska. I think we'll lose by a TD, because we don't give a fuck about ball security
Wisconsin PK vs S Carolina: my pick: S Carolina. Stave isn't beating a good defense
Iowa +7.5 vs LSU: my pick: LSU. Fuck Iowa
Michigan State +4.5 vs Stanford: my pick: Stanford. Both teams like to do the same thing, Stanford does it better
Ohio State -2.5 vs Clemson: my pick: OSU. High scoring affair here, OSU win in OT 48-45
Good luck, and thanks for participating
