Don’t let the absence of Rutgers fool you into thinking that they don’t suck. They were the only team on bye this week, but the bigger story was Michigan State’s surprising win at Michigan. The Spartans have made it a four-team race in the East now, while the West is still Wisconsin and six other teams.
Purdue 31, Minnesota 17
The last two minutes were incredible as a Purdue fan. Anthony Mahoungou had a great catch and run. Markell Jones stopped on a dime. Ja’Whaun Bentley closed it with a pick-6 that served as quite a cathartic moment for everyone.
