The Whistlestop Tour: Week 1 in the Big Ten

In short, it sucked. Penn State saw the winning streak in the country over a single opponent end (for a second year in a row). Michigan didn't have enough HARBAUGH. Minnesota was too one dimensional at home. Indiana barely beat an FCS team because their opponent missed an extra point. Purdue gacked up a winnable game on the road. The best win might have been Iowa's convincing win over a really good Illinois State team, and that was an FBS over FCS win. Yeah, in the eyes of the media the Big Ten sucks again, but it is home.
