OK -- as predicted we tanked in Columbus. However, we do have one more 
game left. I don't think anyone will predict a loss next week. That 
leaves us at 7-4. Iowa and Minnesota could both end up 7-4 if Iowa 
wins next week in Iowa city. Wisconsin looks like they will end up 9-3 
with a win in Hawaii.

I think this means the following:

1. Penn State (assuming a victory next week)
2. Ohio State (assuming a victory next week)
3. Wisconsin (5-3/9-3) (assuming a victory in Hawaii)
3. Michigan (5-3/7-4)
3. Northwestern (5-3/7-4)
3. Iowa (5-3/7-4)(assuming a victory next week)
3. Minnesota (5-3/7-4) (assuming a loss next week)
4. Purdue (3-5/5-6)(assuming they beat Indiana next week)
5. Michigan State (2-6/5-6)
6. Indiana (1-7/4-7)
7. Illinois (0-8/2-9)

That leaves seven Big Ten teams bowl-eligible. 

Is this correct?
