I'd say the last 5 years it's been:I'm not inclined to defend captain khaki, but I think some of tOHSU fans here thinking being the best team in B1G is easier than it is.
For the past few years the B1G Landscape has been:
1. tOSHU
2. Wi, PSU, Mi
3. Iowa, MSU
4. everyone else
Probably a bit of oversimplification there. I just want to get into tier 2
1. Ohio State
2. Penn State, Wisconsin, Michigan State
3. michigan, Iowa
4. Everyone else.
Penn State and Michigan State have won the conference, Michigan State went to the CFP while Penn State had a strong argument for it, and both have beaten OSU recently. Hell OSU needed major comebacks to beat Penn State in 2017 and 2018. Wisconsin has more B10 CCG appearances than anyone.
I'm not saying michigan has to be the best team in the conference, but that doesn't mean they can only just be a perennial 3-4 loss team, and that's all they are under Harbaugh.
