MY PICKS
========
* MICHIGAN STATE over Illinois: No repeat upset for the Zooker
* INDIANA over Arkansas State: Just the antidote for UM/OSU games
* IOWA over Michigan: Close call, but Hawkeyes restore order a bit
* PURDUE over Minnesota: Shootout, but Boilers are at home
* OHIO STATE over Wisconsin: Always a great battle - OSU escapes
---
* NEBRASKA over Texas: Huskers bid Horns adieu by adding nails to coffin
* AUBURN over Arkansas: Tigers' luck lasts at least one more week
* WASHINGTON over Oregon State: Wild Pac 10 season continues
* USC over California: Trojans have Bears' number, even with new coach
* USC over Kentucky: Want to pull the upset trigger, but just can't

No off the board picks this week with NU's bye - hopefully they're using it to work on SPECIAL TEAMS and a running game. Ugh.
