Penn State over Wisconsin in Indianapolis.

Innermind's predictions look good enough for me. Wisconsin is almost a lock for the west division and Penn State and Ohio State decide the east division.

Didn't we already do one of these? Right after bowl season?

I know I wrote about how Nebraska has lost 95% of their offensive production. New QB, who knows who the starting RB is, who knows who the starting TE(s) are, who knows who the starting center is, who knows who the starting three WRs are(Morgan is one of them).

Nebraska has a new defensive coordinator with pedigree that is changing the defense around.

Michigan is starting around 18 new players. Iowa's QBs stunk it up in the Spring game. Minnesota has a new, young, exciting head coach.

Illinois, Purdue, Indiana, Rutgers, and Maryland all have zero chance. Michigan State is in a lot of turmoil with off the field issues.

Northwestern is a pesky team with a good, fighting coach in Fitzgerald but he isn't taking them to the championship.

Fun fact, Ohio State has one conference title in the last seven year.
Interesting info and a perfect example of why perception isn't always reality.

Was it the year of the Wisky ass whipping in the CCG?

Yep. Also another fun fact, every single Big Ten Championship has had either Wisconsin or Michigan State in it.
And yet most of us outsiders and the press always view it as Ohio State, Michigan and everyone else.

I hope PSU is the pick in the east. Urban seems to coach better when he's the underdog.

Sounds eerily similar to Stoops. When OU is overlooked in preseason, they end up being tougher than a wood hauler's ass. When highly ranked presason, they seem to underperform.

Michigan's last out right Big Ten title was 2003 and the last shared was 2004. The next recruiting class was 4 years old the last time Michigan won one.

Ohio State dominated the conference from 2000-2009 which is why that view is there. Ohio State has been losing to the one team that could keep them out of the B1G title game the last two years, won it the year before that, huge upset from Michigan State the year before that, and was banned from post season play the year before that. Since Urban Meyer showed up in Columbus, he has like 3 conference losses. Two to Michigan State and one to Penn State.

EAST
OhioState - they r due
Penn State - still think last year was a little magical
Michigan - just 3rd
Michigan State - cuz I like Sparty...even if he wears a skirt
Maryland - as long as their uniforms don't make them pull their pants down to let their ass laugh
Indiana - probably better than this
Rutgers - get beat but not as bad

WEST
Nebraska - Riley's offense will be better without Armstrong
Wisconsin - see Penn State
Iowa - see Michigan
Purude - see Indiana
Northwestern - see Penn State
Minnesota - Gotta build a boat to row before you can row it
Illinois - Trying to be Kansas of the B1G

You know who won't win the B1G championship? Wisconsin.

Wisconsin is a lock for the west and probably could go undefeated before the title game. That schedule is piss easy.

The B1G West reminds me of the SEC East. A battle for the tallest midget award.

Washington would win the B1G West going away if they were in that division.

Predict the B1G for the 2017 season?

A whole lot of trolling between Michigan and Ohio State fans.

A whole lot of trolling between B1G and SEC fans, pretty much narrowed down to Michigan and Ohio State fans going back and forth with Alabama fans.

The Nebraska team board once again being a very entertaining read.

Concluding with another B1G loss to the PAC in the Rose Bowl. Unless they somehow get to play Oregon.

I don't even know who is in the Big Ten anymore they've added so many teams now.

But this is sorta out the Big Ten will shape out.

Harbaugh and Michigan will dominate headlines starting now until November, making everyone think Michigan is really damn good since they continue to get converage. Ohio State will win the conference. Penn State will be good, not great, but a thorn in everyone side and come away with like a 10-3 record. Oh and of course Wisconsin will win their obligated 10 win season but be forgotten the whole way.
