I think we have to be the overwhelming favorites this year. If Tressel can win the Big 10 in an off-year with away games at PSU, Purdue, and Michigan... think what he's going to do this year. Plus, he seems to always come through in a big way in "revenge games". Illinois might get a serious pounding next year.
USC is a rough one, but other than that, I looked into my crystal ball and saw a runaway s&g train to the Big 10 title. Choo Choo!!!
