Aaaaand, there goes my Pick'em Standing

In the last 15 minutes or so, Iowa scored on a really amazing Shonn Greene touchdown run for a 14-0 lead over Wisconsin, Northwestern scored three times to go up 17-6 over Purdue, and my No. 7 standing in the Big Ten Bloggers Pick'em went right out the window.

I will admit though, that Greene run was fantastic. He broke about eight tackles–if you can even call them that–on his way to making the play of the game. Prior to that run, this was a close game that Wisconsin had a real shot at winning. Not anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if this one got out of hand for the Badgers, similar to last week.

Iowa is becoming a real, living, breathing team before our eyes. Do I think Penn State will lose in Iowa City? No, not really. But I wouldn't be surprised if Iowa lands themselves a nice Outback Bowl bid, or some other January game. But this game is not over, and I shouldn't get ahead of myself.

I just needed something to write about while counting down the seconds to the Penn State game.
