Things really tighten up

If you thought the Big Ten race was tight after Friday night’s results, take a look at it now.

The top two teams coming into the weekend, Michigan and Penn State, both went on the road to the third and fourth place teams and were swept.

As a result, only two points separate all four squads as wee move into the final four weeks of the season.

Michigan State would appear to have the easiest route to the regular season title as two of the final four series are against the bottom squad Wisconsin, winless on the season.

Michigan has the second easiest schedule, facing Ohio State and Wisconsin in two of the final four remaining games.

Minnesota and Penn State on the other hand have the hardest route. They face each other twice and each also one other contender – Michigan State for Minnesota and Michigan for Penn State.
