Considering this is their assessment of the Big Ten 2006 outcome, I would say you are understating the matter.

Big Ten
1. MICHIGAN
2. PENN STATE
3. OHIO STATE
4. IOWA
5. MICHIGAN STATE
6. MINNESOTA
7. PURDUE

Phil Steele is bad enough, since when did this SureFire Handicapping become a gold standard for anything other than congenital blindness?

That site should change their name to [censored]Fire.com. Notre Dame #1 and Ohio State #10? Michigan #1 and Penn State #2 in the Big Ten? Get the [censored] outta here...

I disagree. And I *hate* OU. The only game they might lose this year is UT. And its because the Big 12 is cupcakes USA. The only other "tough" team they play got worse after OU beat them in the Holiday bowl. |

Probably the worst poll i've seen in a while. For all you lazy people...
1. Notre Dame
2. Florida
3. USC
4. Oklahoma
5. West Virginia
6. Michigan
7. Texas
8. Penn State
9. LSU
10. Ohio State
I could POSSIBLY agree with 4-5 predictions and those would be USC, Oklahoma, WVU, Texas, and LSU. WVU and OU based only on schedule. I think neither are actually top 10 teams. |

They do play some cupcakes and that's why I didn't say 4-5 games. I see them losing to Texas and at least one other upset, if not 2. Maybe Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, or KSU. I know those aren't real quality teams but still I think OU is way overrated. Even if they do make it through with only one loss to UT, that doesn't say much.
