So much for being .500! Greg went 4-5 last week to promptly drop back to a game below the even mark. Will posted a 3-6 mark to drop a game in the standings. His chance to catch up is rapidly fading.
The big game on the conference slate this week is of course the Penn State-Ohio State matchup, and both of those teams will probably be pulling for Northwestern to knock off Iowa at Kinnick. Not much going on outside the conference, but we did add the Alabama-LSU matchup to the slate, as a win by LSU could really shake up the national title picture.
As always, we're using Danny Sheridan's odds as our source.
Here's the list for Week 10 (home team in CAPS):
