It's a long shot but...

I do believe Northwestern loses at Iowa this weekend. Iowa will be pissed and looking for revenge after last week, and the spread reflects that (-10). I do think NW beats the spread but loses a close game. NW has to then play Rival Illinois and @ Minny. Both games NW will obviously be favored in but they are not cupcake wins by any means. Especially with Lovie and Fleck trying hard to build momentum going into next year, and their teams will be playing with nothing to lose. Anything can happen!

Obviously we have to take care of business in our final three games, but to actually have the opportunity to play for a B10 championship in Indy this year is remarkable considering the expectations so many had for this team going into the year.

If Minny loses this weekend, they'd HAVE to win their last two games to get bowl eligible. That would be a ton of motivation against NW.

Minneapolis, Iowa City, Evanston in November.. I have a feeling that weather will play a role in determining the outcome of some of these last few weeks' games.
