Michigan squeaked by Bye Week and Ohio State didn't exactly burn up the field against Northwestern.

Nebraska has lost 9 straight games with bowl-eligibility on the line. This week is probably must-win for Michigan to make a bowl game, is must-win (along with next week against Rutgers) for Michigan State to make a bowl game, is probably must-win for USC to make a bowl game, the winner of Wisconsin-Nebraska is bowl eligible.

Michigan goes into their showdown with Northwestern and Ohio State gets possible cupcake Indiana for another probable Top 5 win in our Game of the Week.
