The Best & Worst of the B1G Week One and Power Poll

This game really reminded me of UNI in '09. Barely hanging on. We shall see if we really are #8? That's kinda shock-jockish. Wisconsin barely won too so you should have put them #7....

Why? Because your favorite team isn't ranked as high as you would like? They have a lot of holes and questions, more than Wisconsin, IMO.
 
I like your Purdue ranking at #5. They get Wisconsin at home on Oct 13, winner goes to Indianapolis.

Iowa at #8 is fair.
 
Good fair breakdown. Psu should be last. Purdue may be a team to be more concerned with for the B1G. Ohio St will continue to rule the B1G for forseeable future.
 
The B10 is only a slight step above the Big East this year. OSU is going to destroy the rest of the conference for the next decade.
 
"6. Wisconsin: Transfer quarterbacks are not created equally"

19-23 for 219 yards and 2 touchdowns. Come on.

The Badgers won't as dynamic as they were with Wilson, but they look a lot like 2010's Rose Bowl team under Tolzien. I'd put them above Purdue, followed by a large gap until you get to the other 6 schools.
 
I'm not quite as high on MSU as most, but I do think that their defense is pretty stout.

You be wrong about the conference as a whole... Way above Big East, somewhat above ACC & PAC 12 and the Big XII/SEC debate remains.

O hole state is poised again with Urbie as head coach... unfortunately some combination of a brain anyuerysem(sp) and cheating will do them in.

Before that happens I hope they will represent and if in the play-offs/nat champ.. will win something.
 

This is a total joke right? You can knock the defense for not playing hard but O'brien was 19-23 with 2 receiver drops. What were you expecting, an NCAA record 23-23?

You do realize that Wisconsin has won the last two conference titles? I'll bump this thread up again when Northern Iowa beats Iowa AT Kinnick. Wisconsin isn't better than MSU right now but they certainly aren't 6th. Wisconsin kept its playbook about as vanilla as possible. Michigan doesn't have a quarterback that can throw 5 yards accurately.

Hold on, I can't stop laughing......

1. MSU --not as good of offense but good defense
2. OSU--didn't look good in the first quarter and a half but then got it going.
3. Wisconsin--Suspect defense but the QB went 19-23
4. Nebraska--Regardless of stats Martinez still can't throw the ball
5. Michigan
6. Illinois
7. Northwestern
8. Iowa
9. Purdue
10. Minnesota
11. Indiana
12. Penn state.
 
PSU will be middle of the pack by year-end

PSU is going to get worse not better. They lost a lot of depth so when injuries start to happen at key positions they aren't going to have a capable backup. In many cases they are playing backups right now. I would have expected the emotion of the first game to carry them over Ohio
