Served hot, just like you like 'em.

Iowa moves up in the BCS standings, but its latest win comes with a price, Andrew Logue writes in the Des Moines Register. A magical season still won't get the Hawkeyes to the title game, Dave Curtis writes in The Sporting News. SI.com's Stewart Mandel thinks Iowa can get there.
Michigan State's Mark Dantonio isn't pleased with the officials in Saturday's game, Dan Kilbridge writes in the Lansing State Journal.
Lloyd Carr says it's ridiculous to think he doesn't support Rich Rodriguez and the Michigan program. Rodriguez will need more than Carr's support to make the program elite again, Drew Sharp writes in the Detroit Free Press.
Penn State can start thinking about a BCS bowl, even if it loses one more game, David Jones writes in The (Harrisburg) Patriot-News. Perhaps the matchup comes against in-state rival Pitt, Cory Giger writes in The Altoona Mirror.
Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor redeemed himself against Minnesota, Mike Lopresti writes in USA Today.
Wide receiver Eric Decker is in pain, and Minnesota will be as well if he doesn't return Saturday, Marcus Fuller writes in the (St. Paul) Pioneer Press.
Ron Zook once again isn't naming Illinois' starting quarterback, though both Juice Williams and Jacob Charest will see time against Michigan, Bob Asmussen writes in The (Champaign) News-Gazette.
A bowl is once again a goal for Purdue entering its final four games, Mike Carmin writes in The (Lafayette) Journal and Courier.
