Last week: 3-3

Season: 50-33

My selections for Week 12.

Michigan State at Ohio State -19.0: I know that's a big number, but I think the Buckeyes wanna send a message after Mel Tucker agreed to that fat payday. Lay the points, take Brutus.

Purdue -11.0 vs. Northwestern (at Wrigley Field): Gonna be like a Boilermaker bowl game at Clark & Addison. Lay the points and take Purdue Pete.

Rutgers at Penn State -17.0: Look for the spunky Scarlet Knights to make this a game. Take RU and the points.

Illinois at Iowa -12.5: No Bret Bielema. No worries. The Illini gonna make Herky sweat. Take Illinois and the points.

Michigan -15.0 at Maryland: Won't get an easier than this: Lay the points and take Michigan. NOW!

Nebraska at Wisconsin -9.5: Huskers are circling the drain. Give the points and take UW. Bucky rolls.

Minnesota -7.5 at Indiana: IU is Goldy's get-well card. Lay the points and take P.J. Fleck.

Lock of the week: Nebraska at Wisconsin -9.5

Spread too big? Rutgers at Penn State -17.0

Spread too small? Purdue -11.0 at Northwestern

Avoid this game: Michigan State at Ohio State -19.0
