Preseason predictions (Big Ten)
I am just curious what people think the final standings will look like in the big ten.
I know it is boring offseason stuff, but it is the off season and we need to talk a little more football.
Here is my take:
1) Ohio State (8-0)
2) Minnesota (7-1)
2) Iowa (7-1)
4) Purdue (5-3)
4) Michigan (5-3)
5) Penn State (3-5)
5) Wisconsin (3-5)
5) Michigan St. (3-5)
9) Illinois (2-6)
10) Northwestern (1-7)
11) Indiana (0-8)
Just my opinion.

I think Wisconsin has the fewest major questions of any team
If their new Qb can play just good, like at Minnesota, then those two teams are going to be pretty good. I might be underrating Purdue because they've got Orton but they lost the second highest number of players to the NFL in the league after us with 14. I'm not sure why everyone is so high on Iowa, I think they are in for a tumble back to reality this year. I think Michigan State will be a surprise. I think Penn State has to do something with Mills, they just have to & I think they will try to send out Paterno on a high note. Michigan has a lot of questions to address but less than us but they visit OSU. Illinois, I don't honestly know a lot about but I thought they should have done better and it's probably do die time for Turner. As for Northwestern or IU, who cares ?

I haven't bought into the Wisconsin hype. I think their lack of a QB will hurt them...I am not sold on whoever their QB is...names escapes me...have seen video of him....maybe its just me.

Paterno may very well leave after this year if his replacement is lined up, and they'll be better, but I don't think they'll be better than 5th. I know people will disagree with me on this, but my picks are:
1a) Iowa
1b) Ohio State
1c) Meatchicken
1d) Purdue
5) Penn State
6a) Minnesota
6b) Meatchicken State
8) Wisconsin
9) Illinois
10) Northwestern
11) Indiana
Northwestern comes back to earth, and tub-o-[censored] Alvarez pulls his periodic 2-6 in the Big Ten again. If there is a year we could see 3 or 4 teams tied at 6-2 at the top of the conference, this is the year.
