Michigan State vs. Stanford
Ohio State vs. Clemson
Wisconsin vs. South Carolina
Iowa vs. LSU
Michigan vs. Kansas State
Nebraska vs. Georgia
Minnesota vs. Syracuse

So with the matchups set what record will the big ten end up with?
 
More favorable matchups than the Big Ten usually gets in bowl games. I think only Iowa should be a clear underdog. I'd say Minnesota and UM have pretty favorable matchups. MSU, OSU, and UW have pretty even matchups. Nebraska has a decent chance against Georgia minus Aaron Murray too.

I'd say anywhere from 3-4 to 5-2 is a possibility. If they go say 2-5 then that would look even worse than in previous years when it's happened.
 
I actually think that Ohio State is almost a lock to beat Clemson. Clemson is an overrated team in my opinion. I think Minnesota gets a win too, and then everything after that will be close...except the Iowa LSU game, Iowa will lose big.

I'm going to guess 5-2.
MSU, OSU, Minn, Michigan and Wisc get it done.
 
I forgot in the LSU game though Mettenberger tore an ACL and will be out. Still would probably favor LSU in that game, but not by as much. Still too many athletes.

I think OSU-Clemson is a tossup. Clemson is overrated but they can score, and OSU can allow points. Maybe a slight edge to OSU but it wouldn't surprise me either way.

Minnesota has the most favorable matchup. Even Nortwestern clobbered Syracuse this year.

MSU-Stanford and UW-South Carolina should be very good games assuming UW is over that egg they laid against Penn State.

UM is better on paper than K State but that hasn't mattered much this season for them.

I expect 5-2 (MSU, OSU, Wisc, Minny, and UM wins)

I think we have a high of 6-1 (1 of Iowa, Michigan, or Nebraska will lose)

I think we have a low of 1-6 (Minny is probably the only lock)
 
I have watched every team on this list except for K St. but on paper they look like garbage.

Michigan State vs. Stanford
Ohio State vs. Clemson
Wisconsin vs. South Carolina
Iowa vs. LSU
Michigan vs. Kansas State
Nebraska vs. Georgia
Minnesota vs. Syracuse



I see a winning record but 0-3 vs the SEC (although Wisky has a chance vs. SC)

And on the field UM does.
