Despite Mr. Moore asinine comments (my refutes follow as responses. I am sure you all will agree with my rational arguments instead of his obviously frantic emotional pleas), the Big Ten is still a high-powered conference (just look at our representatives in the Top Twenty). With that in mind, it's on to this week's Big Ten games: Michigan at Illinois Illinois by 2 15:13 Iowa at Ohio State Iowa by 10 Minnesota at Mich. State MSU by 3 ! Indiana at Wisconsin Indiana by 6 Northwestern at Purdue Purdue by 12 Comments: 1) Michigan is really good at stopping touchdowns, but Illinois has Chris White. We don't need touchdowns! White for 5 field goals while our defense holds Michigan to 1 TD & 2 FGs. 2) Minnesota is good, but I think their record reflects playing the weaker teams in the conference. True, they almost beat OSU, but they are not as good this year as in the past. Too, MSU has a habit for being a upset possibility in big week, and this is DEFINITELY a big week for them. Watch for the upset, folks! I'm sticking my neck out on two of these (see above), my I stand by my decisions. Tomorrow will tell the tale! Robert A. Ekblaw

Scenerio: :04 left in the game. Illinois & Michigan tied 3-3. Illinois has the ball on the Michigan ~25. Chris White called in for a routine FG. The kick......its....up.....up OH! NO! ITS OFF!!! Illinois and Michigan tie. Just shows you even the best can have an off day. Rob Cook UUCP: {ihnp4,pur-ee}!uiucdcs!uiucuxc!rcook 'Life is just a cocktail party on the street' -Mick Jagger-
