Bowl chances




Click here for the running tab on NU's odds of a bowl visit. With yesterday's big losses by OSU (and corresponding win by Illinois) and Michigan, the Big Ten race has become somewhat scrambled. Best case, the Big Ten will have only one BCS participant, with the Rose selecting OSU. But OSU faces Michigan in their traditional finale to the season; if Michigan beats OSU, all bets are off.

Other games next week are equally crucial. Northwestern squares off against Illinois, and its a must win game for the Cats. A win would move the Cats to 7-5 overall, 4-4 in conference, and give them a shot at one of the lesser Big Ten bowls. Losses by Wiscy, Penn State, Purdue, and Iowa would increase the Cats chances.

Go Cats! Beat the Illini!
