Key stretches in the Big Ten this season - Big Ten - ESPN

Key stretches in the Big Ten this season - Big Ten - ESPN: "IOWA -- Michigan (Oct. 10), at Wisconsin (Oct. 17), at Michigan State (Oct. 24)
Don't get me wrong, the Penn State game (Sept. 26) is huge and could put Iowa in the league title mix. But the Hawkeyes must take care of business in October to be a serious contender. Iowa has dropped 10 of its last 12 meetings against Michigan, and trips to rival Wisconsin and on-the-rise Michigan State won't be easy. The four conference road games will make or break Iowa's season."

I disagree with the Michigan game. Michigan at home should be a blow out. At Penn St is huge as it starts the Big Ten schedule. I would add at Ohio St with an asterisk. It could become a national spotlight game if both teams can get through the season unscathed. Iowa has a tough schedule but trust me last year was no picnic without OSU and Mich.
