The home teams did pretty well this week, going 8-4. There were just a couple surprises this week:
- Minnesota lost at Northwestern on Wednesday. Minnesota is ranked, and Northwestern is struggling, but it’s tough to win on the road in the Big Ten.
- Northwestern lost at Nebraska on Saturday. Northwestern just beat Minnesota, then they lose to Nebraska?

Here are the games scheduled for the upcoming week (Week #5):
Tuesday (01/29/2013)
Wisconsin at Ohio State
Nebraska at Minnesota
Wednesday (01/30/2013)

There are two big games this week:
- Wisconsin at Ohio State on Tuesday. Somebody’s getting their 3rd loss.
