Bowl games this year...

1. (#22) Ohio State beat Oklahoma St. 33-7
2. Minnesota vs. Alabama
3. Purdue vs. (#24) Arizona St.
4. (#16) Wisconsin vs. (#7) Georgia
5. (#13) Iowa vs. (#11) LSU
6. (#12) Michigan vs. (#5) Texas

So far the conference is 1-0... the 2nd and 3rd games are today (12/31)
Minnesota made the use to be 2nd best defense (yards given up) in the nation look like nothing, but again Boise State's 4th (actually tied for 3rd with USC & 5 yards more than #2 Cal) ranked run defense had more holes in it than a damn sponge.

Purdue and Wisconsin both lost. Iowa will win and Michigan but will lose.

3-3 for the big ten.
