So what you're saying is that Barry Odom is the next Kirk Ferentz?
Obviously.

After going 2-18 in his first 20 games.  He really needed that strong finish.  It all started with a huge upset at Penn St in OT.
and a 27–17 home upset over No. 12 Northwestern.

He beat Minnesota, who beat Michigan, who beat Oklahoma, who beat Texas, who beat Ohio State. 

Clearly Purdue is one of the best teams in the Nation.

Somebody mentioned today that Iowa's last 6 games are against the 6 other teams that made up the Big Ten West back in the day.  So if Iowa manages to run the table,  do they get a trophy for the 2026 Big Ten West championship?

Current standings if Big Ten still had divisions

Big Ten West
Wisc 2-0
Iowa 2-1
Neb 2-1
Purdue 2-1
MINN 2-1
NW 1-1
ILL 1-2
Overall 12-7

Big Ten East
Ind 3-0
Ohio St 3-0
Mich 0-2
Rut 0-2
Penn St 0-3
Mich St 0-3
MD 0-3
Overall 6-13

Pac
UCLA 3-0
USC 3-1
Ore 1-1
Wash 0-3
Overall 7-5

The most amazing ithing s that 5 of the Big Ten's current winless teams are in the old Big Ten East

Wisconsin lost to IDLE and dropped from 22 to 27.

Probably because PSU and MSU lost.

I'm not sold on UCLA mostly because I have not followed them but barely.  Odd to see UM and PSU down so far.

PSU probably wishing right now the would have chose Rutgers and MD as annual rivals.
