1. Sept. 6 - Northwestern at UNLV
Vegas, baby! Is there a better place to start this trip? We
didn't think so. Baby, this is going to bankroll the journey.
2. Sept. 15 - Notre Dame at Purdue
Love 'em or hate 'em, any good road trip should give
you a chance to see the Irish.
3. Sept. 22 - Wisconsin at Penn State
A decent game in a week of losers. Things will get worse.
4. Sept. 29- Scorekeepers
There's not a single good Big Ten game this week. So
we're staying home and watching a good one.
5. Oct. 6 -Northwestern at Ohio State
This could be a good game. So we'll bear the trip to Columbus.
6. Oct. 13-- Purdue at Michigan
A lot is on the line here. Michigan's loss to Purdue really
hurt last season. Plus, we get to sleep in our own beds.
7. Oct. 20 - Wisconsin at Illinois

We wanted to go to Champaign and see if Kurt Kittner is
really a Heisman Trophy candidate.
8. Oct. 27 - Michigan State at Wisconsin
Yeah, we're seegisconsin twice in a row, but you can't
pass up a trip to Madison.
9. Nov. 3-- Northwestern at Indiana
A chance to see two Heisman hopefuls - Damien Ander-
son and Antwaan Randle El. Also one of the last opportu-
nities to see Cam Cameron coach.
10. Nov. 10-- Purdue at Ohio State
Not too many good games this week. And these two did
pretty well last year.
11. Nov. 17 - Minnesota at Iowa
We wanted to see all 11 Big Ten teams. So why not kill the
last two miserable birds with one stone.
12. Nov. 24 --Ohio State at Michigan
Was there ever a question?
