Picks for the Week:

Talk about a dominating performance last weekend for the Penn State whiteout crowd.

A 31-0 victory over a ranked conference opponent was good enough for Penn State to jump in the AP polls. James Franklin and company travel to Chicago this week to take on Northwestern. Northwestern might be the Big Ten surprise team of the year thus far.

Some people even asked if they would win a game after everything that happened right before the season started.

However, Penn State shows how good they are. The offense has yet to connect on all cylinders, but this game is when it happens.

Prediction: Penn State 62  Northwestern 10

Big Ten Pick of the Week:

Michigan State (+12.5) vs. Iowa    7:30 pm/NBC

There is a lot of buzz coming out of the Michigan State football team, and not for good reasons. A new coach is on their way, and because of that, the line shows. I know that Iowa just came off a brutal loss. However, the Spartans will be able to cover and win!

Give me Michigan State +12.5.
