In case anyone is curious, I just ran the numbers and this is where MSU is at:
Odds to win/share the Big Ten:
Maryland = 50%
Illinois = 32%
MSU = 24%
Penn State = 19%
Iowa = 15%
Now, a week ago I said that this 5-game stretch would be brutal. MSU judt finished its 4th consecutive game on only 2-days of rest. I also said MSU needed to go 3-2 to tread water. That is still possible. IF MSU can win the next 3, they are back on track. Now, I give MSU only 15% odds to do that right now... but maybe we are due some good fortune.
I believe that we are also still in the "CarlN Bermuda Triangle." Things looked WAY worse this time last year, as I recall. There is still time to get crap together... but the clock is ticking.
