Why is DJ Uiagalelei the featured athlete of this article, despite still not being better than Trevor Lawrence? Well, I needed something to put up here after predicting another abysmal offensive performance and loss from Iowa, and this picture helps remind me that the Hawks aren't the only disappointment this year. Or would this be better?

At least they're not Indiana. Anyways, it was fun while it lasted, Iowa. Welcome back to the B1G West, where (even with Graham Mertz) Wisconsin still somehow always reigns supreme. On that note, let's get into the Week 10 lineup, shall we?


Smallest Upset of the Week: Northwestern Wildcats over #19 Iowa Hawkeyes


Honestly, just put the Hawks out of their misery, Pat. Northwestern 17, Iowa 3.


Real Game of the Week: #22 Penn State Nittany Lions at Maryland Terrapins


It might not be a ranked matchup, and it could end up being a landslide, but both teams are 5-3 and both teams have been embarrassed by teams of similar reputation to the other this season, so I could see this going either way. If I'm thinking straight and unbiased, Penn State should win. But I'm always down for a little chaos, and there are very few sports teams outside of the NBA that I want to succeed less than Penn State, who's already shown they're a little vulnerable. Maryland 38, Penn State 32.


"Defining Wins" of the Week


Georgia 55, Mizzou 3; Alabama 70, LSU 10; Michigan 45, Indiana 6; Oregon 38, Washington 0; Michigan State 52, Purdue 21; Baylor 69, TCU 24.


Hero's Game of the Week: Nebraska beats the spread against #6 Ohio State


This title has 3 meanings, listed below:

  1. Nebraska makes a "heroic" comeback in garbage time to only lose by 12.

  2. Adrian Martinez and CJ Stroud both have "heroic" performances as they combine for over 800 yards.

  3. The Huskers look surprisingly competent and competitive in the second half, causing all Iowa fans to sell their tickets to the Heroes Game in Lincoln later this year to avoid witnessing in person the Hawks dropping their sixth straight B1G West matchup to Nebraska, of all teams, to secure a spot in the Quick Lane Bowl.

Ohio State 42, Nebraska 30.


Stat Line of the Week: Bo Nix, QB - Auburn


2 receptions. 78 yards. 2 receiving TDs. 5 passes. 5 completions. 78 yards. 2 passing TDs. 1 rush. -2 yards. Second team takes over in the second quarter and maintains lead. Auburn 55, Texas A&M 31.


Alright, I'm off to do some laundry. Let me know in the comments if there's anything you want to see me write about in the future.

I agree that the NW game will go as always - the team which is supposed to win loses big time. The only hope is that with the current setup, Iowa may make the case that they aren’t suppose to win. Ergo (latinx) I don’t think 10 OTs is out of the question.

Josh, could you please pick Iowa to win sometime so they can actually win? I’m just asking as a fan of the sport. College football is better when Iowa isn’t losing to Northwestern
