Nittany Lions must win to maintain their shot at a Big Ten title. A victory for Northwestern would make the Wildcats bowl eligible and make their season. Key Matchup............
Line: Iowa by 17{
Series Record: Iowa leads 39-27-4.
Last meeting: 2008, Iowa 45-9. What's at Stake
Iowa will likely need to go undefeated for a shot at the BCS title game, so it can't afford to overlook the reeling Hoosiers. Indiana's bowl eligibility hopes are in doubt after losing four of its last five, but a win over a top 10 team on the road could get their season back on track.
Key Matchup
Indiana QB Ben Chappell vs. Iowa secondary. Chappell is third in the Big Ten with a 63 percent completion rate, but the
Hawkeyes lead the nation with 15 interceptions. Chappell will need to be accurate and limit mistakes to give the Hoosiers a chance for the upset.
