Despite Mr. Moore asinine comments (my refutes follow as responses.  I am
sure you all will agree with my rational arguments instead of his obviously
frantic emotional pleas), the Big Ten is still a high-powered conference
(just look at our representatives in the Top Twenty).  With that in mind,
it's on to this week's Big Ten games:

	Michigan at Illinois		Illinois by 2		15:13
	Iowa at Ohio State		Iowa by 10
	Minnesota at Mich. State	MSU by 3 !
	Indiana at Wisconsin		Indiana by 6
	Northwestern at Purdue		Purdue by 12

Comments:

1)  Michigan is really good at stopping touchdowns, but Illinois has Chris
	White.  We don't need touchdowns!  White for 5 field goals while
	our defense holds Michigan to 1 TD & 2 FGs.

2)  Minnesota is good, but I think their record reflects playing the weaker
	teams in the conference.  True, they almost beat OSU, but they are
	not as good this year as in the past.  Too, MSU has a habit for
	being a upset possibility in big week, and this is DEFINITELY a
	big week for them.  Watch for the upset, folks!

I'm sticking my neck out on two of these (see above), my I stand by my
decisions.  Tomorrow will tell the tale!
