The stakes are high as well with an inside track to the Big Ten West Division on the line. But expect the Badgers to have their fans jumping around in celebration at the end of this one. Rutgers Scarlet Knights vs Illinois Fighting Illini Predictions: Illinois owns a 5-2 all-time record against Rutgers with three straight wins and clearly enters this matchup with more momentum after last week's upset of Penn State. The Scarlet Knights have played better in head coach Greg Schiano's return but haven't gotten over the hump against Big Ten competition. Minnesota Golden Gophers vs Northwestern Wildcats Predictions: It's tough to go against Minnesota here given how the Gophers have played defensively for much of the season and the emerging young talents in the Gophers' backfield who have stepped up in place of the injured starters. The Wildcats have performed much better this year in the friendly confines of Evanston (3-1), so expect this to be a close matchup, but Minnesota appears to be hitting its stride on both sides of the football at just the right time in the season. Michigan Wolverines vs Michigan State Spartans Predictions: This is probably the lowest over/under in a Top 10 matchup in quite some time and I lowkey love those games. I want to look at Sparty here and give them the edge but I'm just not ready to trust them just yet. Normally, we'd make a Harbaugh joke here but I'm really liking what he's done so far and he deserves credit for that. Same for Mel Tucker and Sparty. Ohio State Buckeyes vs Penn State Nittany Lions Predictions: Sean Clifford was well below 100% during Penn State's loss to Illinois, and if he's not healthy, an already limited offense becomes even more of a liability. Also, losing defensive lineman P.J. Mustipher for the season had a noticeable impact on the Penn State rush defense against Illinois. Now that same unit has to stop running back TreVeyon Henderson while also covering all the weapons Ohio State has in the passing game. I just don't see how Penn State can keep up with this Ohio State team right now.
