Who will win the Big 10?

[BVP]

Temple can make anyone look good.

But they also beat Bowling Green last week.

[PsychoChicken]

But, if you think about it, Wisconsin is looking pretty good too.

Non-conference game don't matter. I still think that it will be Iowa.

Yes, you're right that they don't matter concerning who wins the Big 10. But after this week, you do have to re-consider who the best team might be.

After the pitiful offensive performance by Iowa, I can't consider them them good enough to win the Big 10. Michigan looked weak on both sides of the ball. Ohio State had a pretty good game against Texas, but I still think they should have won at home, and this loss showed some uncertainty at QB.

So right now, I think Purdue is the best team in the Big 10. And usually, the best team in the conference wins the conference.

Bump. Iowa, Michigan, and Ohio State all lost. So, is Purdue now the favorite?

I like Ohio State to win the Big 10, as they lost to the toughest opponent and put up the best fight. It's tough to rule out Purdue, though.

I'll eat my words concerning Iowa.

Marlin Jackson and Ernest Shazor are gone.

michiagn also has alot of depth on defense

[PsychoChicken]

Wow, looks like Michigan's taking a huge lead. I really think some of you are overlooking Iowa, though. Maybe it's just because of Michigan's past and it's huge bandwagon. Michigan's not a perfect team, though. (For an example of a perfect team, see: University of Southern California.) Their defense scares me...in a bad way. Marlin Jackson and Ernest Shazor are gone. The Texas offense tore the defense apart. Gabe Watson gets hyped up, but he hasn't shown me much. Surely, all your hopes are not lying in Steve Breaston; it's only his first year starting.

Iowa's has the best QB in the Big 10. Solomon/Hinkel might not be as good as Holmes/Ginn and Avant/Breaston, but it's very close. Solomon and Hinkel are both very solid, and Solomon had 905 receiving yards last year. I also like the veteran o-line, LBs, and DBs. Playing Michigan at home is nice, though Ohio State at Columbus could ruin Iowa's national championship hopes.

Ahh, 18 returning starter from a team that didn't even win a bowl game. That is real good.

what bowl game was it we went to how many points did we lose by how straight years have we won the big ten...hmm think about that

[In-com-plete]

Michigan will win the big ten this year.

2. They play Ohio State at home.

Michigan will win the Big Ten because...that's what they do. They'll loose to ND, but beat Ohio State because...that's what they do.

umm...buddy in case you didnt know michigan had a top 5 recruiting class in the nation not iowa

anyway michigan is gonna to win and im not being a homer i mean they have 18 returning starters from offense and defense chad henne can only get better everybody should know that a WR akways steps for michigan whether it will be jason avant or steve breatson and the defense only lost a few key counter parts

I don't think it's too farfetched to say that that a top five recruiting class isn't gonna really have too much of an impact on THIS years record

[LCA534]

Michigan looks great and they got my vote, but you have to look at Purdue do to the fact that they don't play Michigan or ohio st.

The Hawkeyes are going to be sick this year.

Plus they had one of the best recruiting classes in the nation. Which means they are going to be sick for years to come, look out big ten.

And this is coming from a Nebraskan whos job is to hate Iowa.
j/k TDK I love Iowa.
