We are entering Week 2 of the B1G schedule, but not every game will be played this weekend.

Unfortunately, Wisconsin has paused all football activities due to COVID-19 positives within the program. Those positives include head coach Paul Chryst with the status of Saturday’s game against Nebraska being moved to a no-contest.

For now, the rest of the Week 2 slate is scheduled to go off without a hitch. That includes a Friday showdown between Minnesota and Maryland. Michigan and Michigan State will also square off in their bitter rivalry with a trophy up for grabs while Ohio State and Penn State square off in a highly-anticipated matchup.

As we head into the second half of the week, ESPN’s Bill Connelly unveiled the SP+ picks for the weekend. Here is how the system is predicting every Week 2 B1G game:

  • Minnesota 36, Maryland 22
  • Michigan State 13, Michigan 32
  • Purdue 32, Illinois 24
  • Indiana 32, Rutgers 19
  • Northwestern 20, Iowa 22
  • Ohio State 34, Penn State 24
