8 games left....How many of them do we win?

[Frost Advisory]

I chose 3 more wins, and that's being optimistic.  Illinois is about the only sure win left on the schedule, maybe Northwestern depending on how they're doing by the time we play them.  Maybe we get lucky and catch Minnesota and Purdue on an off day.  Those 3 games are essentially tossup as far as I'm concerned.  Could see us getting 1 of em.  Unless a fluke happens I think it's safe to assume Wisconsin, Ohio St, Penn St, and Iowa are all losses.

Can't believe they have Iowa in the win category.  After watching them play Penn St I just have a hard time seeing it.

Bill's numbers has us 1 spot above Iowa.
