and I suppose conversely would have the easiest time with.

Wisconsin - seems to be by and far the best team in the B10 at this point. Demolished three cupcakes so far (Oregon St. is bad, they lost to Sacramento St.), so they really haven't been tested. Even so their offense has been very explosive and the defense has played well.

Illinois - They struggled a bit in their opener against Sun Belt opponent Arkansas St. Had no problems with South Dakota St. and beat a ranked Arizona St. team by a FG at home. With the way Iowa struggled with Steele Jantz, it would appear that the defense would have a really tough time containing Nathan Scheelhaase. Also, the last time Iowa faced the Illini, Ron Zook played a part in the offensive play-calling. Now he has no part in the offensive playcalling. That is on Paul Petrino, the brother of Arkansas coach, Bobby Petrino.

Ohio State - Really struggled on offense against Toledo and Miami, especially at QB. That being said they still consistently have higher rated recruits than Iowa and their defense has played pretty well so far. A matchup with Iowa certainly looks like it would be a defensive battle.
 


It seems like this poll will be pretty lopsided but maybe it counts for something that with Wisconsin, we know what to expect schematically whats coming at us.
 


Looking at historical struggles and the fact that Wisconsin hasn't played anyone that's anyone to this point in the season, I'm inclined to say Ohio State. I still think Wisconsin is the best in that division, but Iowa matches up well against Wisconsin and can win in Madison.

No offense CHS, but I think you could of just skipped the poll part and asked the question.
 


Wisconsin would beat Iowa 95-10.

OSU would beat us on some kind of last second, desperation play, because they always beat us.

We beat Ill because Kirk owns The Zooker.
