AP has Michigan at 25... 
That's a joke tho. I think the lack of post season success has hurt them (minus that bullshyt Michigan win in the Sugar Bowl) along with the controversy. Wisconsin had a very good team 2 years in a row that got hardly any attention due to all the controversy in the conference. Coaches and Schools look at the Big 10 being "stable" in these days of conference realignment while potential athletes see it as being "stagnant", not a good look.
Urban Meyer is easily the best thing to happen to the conference as he is going to build a solid team like he always does. That might draw more talent as it brings positive football attention back to the conference, too bad the buckeyes don't have a postseason

None but Michigan will be after their next game. I think that conference is on the way up. Michigan and OSU will be national powers once again VERY soon and you know Wisky is going to be a consistent 5-15 ranked team and possibly Nebraska as well. Keep an eye on PSU too. Sanctions will gut them in the next few seasons but O'Brien is a GREAT coach in the making.
Iowa and Purdue need to step the fukk up too

Yeah, apart from their first game, PSU has been pretty good and should only have 1 loss.
I think if they get a better QB they can change the identity of their program, much like OSU.
The Big 10 has this "slow plodding football" image, but in reality, who still plays like that other than Wisconsin?
Ohio St getting embarrassed in back to back title games finally exposed the big 10
mcgloin has been the second best qb in the big ten minus miller, wow at how paterno had this dude in the doghouse, dude hs been like pin point precise and perfect this year, penn state has surprised the hell out of me, they really should be 5-1 at the moment, that virginia loss they missed like 4 field goals.
the big ten has some quality teams though michigan two losses both came to top 5 teams in notre dame and alabama, michigan state if they only had a offense but both their losses ae to technically two top ten teams
nebraska its funny for years bo pelini teams were strong defensively but struggled somewhat on offense, now they have the offensive power but their defense is their achilles
wisconsin as well had to change qb, ball was struggling early but if you look at their losses, in corvallis to a oregon state team that is ranked top ten and in omaha against a nebraska team that is always tough at home, and both losses were just 3 points
