How would Northern Illinois do?

That is the biggest outlier of this entire season. They went 500 in the MAC. They didn't even beat another D1 team with more than 7 wins (Bowling Green had 7).

Just goes to show you that if you sleepwalk against any team (Notre Dame vs. NIU) or are nervous enough that your coach looks like he's going to stroke out (Ryan Day vs. Michigan) you can lose to anyone.

Of course, NIU would have probably beaten Wisconsin, but even Wisconsin benefitted from teams not taking them seriously and keeping games close into the second half (Penn State, Oregon).

If Wisconsin even had an average QB this year they beat Oregon and probably Penn State and USC. The season looks a whole lot different.

Teams can have clunkers.
