Quite a battle brewing in the West.
Wisconsin, NW, Iowa and Purdue all have one loss. Wisconsin and NW have a bit of an advantage because Wis beat Iowa and NW beat Purdue head to head. Wis. and NW play each other this week in Madison.
The first tie-breaker is head-to-head. If more than one team, first tie breaker is combined head-to-head, followed by straight head-to-head.
Wis. still has NW, PSU and Purdue - but all at home.
NW has at Wis., Iowa at home. (They are also at ND -- lets hope for a miracle there.)
Iowa has PSU and Purdue at home, and travels to NW and Neb. (Iowa should win but Neb getting better and this is last game and in Lincoln).
Purdue has MSU at home but travels to Iowa and Wisconsin.
I could see the division winner having two losses. If that is the case, NW and Wis. have the advantage right now with one head-to-head win in the bag. The winner of this week's game may decide it.
This is really a toss-up but if I had to guess, I take Wisconsin, its home schedule, and running game as the weather gets worse.
