IowaHawkBlog's Marble Game through Week 12

Sorry for the late post today.  I just got home from Auburn.  Some friends and I flew out there for the Auburn vs NMSU game.  One of my friend's attended Auburn and we all live in NM now, so it made sense.  NMSU spanked Auburn too. What a wild game. 

As expected last week, Washington has now moved into 1st place. Also Michigan overtook FSU for 4th to change up the playoff spots.  Michigan is hosing Ohio State next, so clearly something will change there as one of them will take well over 100 marbles from the other (136 for Michigan or 148 for Ohio St.). 

So that's clearly the biggest game happening next week.  There are quite a few other interesting one, but the two with the largest marble implications are: Oregon St at Oregon (122 vs 49 marble gain potential), Texas Tech at Texas (136 vs 49).  So Ohio State could retake the #1 position.

Also note, my post may be late again next week too.  I am traveling for Thanksgiving again but should be getting home around midday on Sunday.
