Last week: 2-3

Last four weeks: 23-10

Season: 37-27

My selections for Week 9.

Michigan -4.0 at Michigan State: Matchup deluxe. I want Sparty and the points.

Iowa at Wisconsin -3.5: How is Iowa gonna score on Wisconsin? Lay the points and take Bucky.

Indiana at Maryland -5.5: This one makes my head hurt. Take the Terps and lay the points.

Rutgers -1.5 at Illinois: pick 'em: If I have to choose one, I'll begrudgingly take Rutgers and lay the points ... I guess.

Purdue at Nebraska -7.5: The Huskers may win, but they won't cover. Give me the Boilers and the points.

Minnesota -7.5 at Northwestern: This is easy--take Goldy and lay the points. Do it. Quickly.

Penn State at Ohio State -18.5: I wanna take Brutus and lay that big number in a now-lackluster matchup. You know what? I will.

Lock of the week: Iowa at Wisconsin -3.5

Spread too big? Purdue at Nebraska -7.5

Spread too small? Minnesota -7.5 at Northwestern

Avoid this game: Indiana at Maryland -5.5
