Michigan 24, PURDUE 17:  A wonderful ballgame for a Purdue backer.  This
	was not a case of a Cal coming in and handing the game to Purdue
	on a silver platter.  37,218 at Ross-Ade.  Here's a summary from
	a friend:

"How to win everything except the final score"....

	First Downs:  PU 22, UM 20
	Rushing:      PU 240 (203 net), UM 222 (207 net)
	Passing:      PU 209, UM 169
	Total Yds:    PU 412, UM 376
	Punt Ret Yds: PU 14, UM 6   (PU 3 rets, UM 2)
	KO Ret Yds:   PU 82, UM 47  (both w/4 rets)
	Punts:        PU  4, UM 6
	Punt Yds:     PU 34.8, UM 31.7
	Poss Time:    PU 30:31, UM 29:29

UM did get 4 sacks to PU's 0 and was 9/16 on 3rd down vs. PU's 6/14.
The only turnover of the game was the INT at the end of the game on
PU's "big ben" pass play (the Boilers also muffed a kickoff that UM
recovered, leading to third quarter points).

Illinois 13, WISCONSIN 12:  Wisconsin held Illinois to 54 total yards of
	offense through 3 quarters, but apparently ran out of gas in
	the fourth.  The Wisconsin offense didn't score a TD again, the
	only TD being a fumble recovery.  Ten straight quarters now.  Rich
	Thompson gagged two FG attempts, one a chippie.  65,293 at Camp
	Randall.

Indiana 24, MINNESOTA 17:  Minnesota blew a 17-3 3rd quarter lead, as
	IU scored three straight TDs to pull it out.  31,741 at the Dome.

Ohio State 38, IOWA 15:  Kind of a blowout, really.  The Hawkeyes lost
	a lot when Jim Hartlieb went down...  70,397 at Kinnick.

Michigan State 27, NORTHWESTERN 26:  MSU prevailed in a game that went
	back and fourth.  NU was certainly competitive again...  31,101
	Dyche.

BYU 30, Penn State 17:  Don't let the final fool you.  A good, old fashioned
	country whipping.  It was 30-3 until late...  66,016 at Provo...
