Week 12 of Zultan’s Fearless College Football Forecast… 1
Zultan buries his dreams of a Big 10 Championship for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
With as much dignity as he could muster, Zultan gathered up the sad remains of his shattered major award.
Later that night, alone in the backyard, the Great One buried it next to the garage.
Now I could never be sure, but I thought that I heard the sound of “Taps” being played, gently.*
The shattered prize being a Big Ten Championship for Zultan’s Iowa Hawkeyes, of course…
It was quite a Saturday for the Big Ten. Iowa and Illinois fell as Wisconsin stomped the life out of Indiana, crushing bones, sinew and dignity in the process.
Hard to haul yourself off the field and onto the next game after that whopping of 83-20. The Badgers deserve the big Axe for that one…
Northwestern’s 21-17 win over Iowa was just as devastating for the Hawkeyes and their fans, watching another promising season sink out of sight like the sun on the horizon after a long day. The Wildcats continue to have Iowa’s number year after year…
Illinois could not locate the game they left on the field in Ann Arbor as Minnesota came back to win in the closing seconds…
What about Minnesota! The Gophers struck their own blow for the dignity of their team, their school and most especially for their seniors. As hard as it had to be on Illinois to lose that one, you must be happy for the Gophers to finally win a game in the Big Ten.
