October 19, 2025
Welcome to week nine of the college football season. There are seven games scheduled this week featuring teams from the Big Ten Conference, and all seven games are inter-conference games. Ohio State, USC, Maryland, and Penn State have the week off. I noticed that four of the games scheduled for Saturday, October 25th, have no kickoff time, so, if you see TBD above the game below, it means To-Be-Decided.
Okay, out of the seven, four games have my attention. UCLA is on the road playing Indiana. UCLA is hot right now and looking to extend their winning streak to four games. For Indiana, this is a trap game. Northwestern against Nebraska, Illinois against Washington, and Minnesota versus Iowa. The game between the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Minnesota Golden Gophers was my pick for “Big Ten Game of the Week.”
