A risk to start this year,
Indiana


Damn huge risk.

On the other hand, how many times have we lost all but like 2 or 3 people because everybody took the easy pick, an it was logical since said team had few other guarantees the rest of the year?  

Think Purdue at Nevada was one (they were up like 17 and had tripled them in yards, so of course they found a way to lose.)  Rutgers and maybe IL were others.

I'll go MSU in wk 1 even thought they are favored by less.

Also @ELA , in week 2 please mark me down for Indiana  assuming Mel's Boys don't F up. I will be out of town, most all of week, a lot of it away from anything that transmits signals.

EMU emptied the field in back to back years by taking out Purdue and Illinois

Minnesota lost to BG to eliminate me last year.  I want to get them off my plate as early as possible this time.

that's right it was the home bedcrapping in the rain vs E Mich for Purdue.
