If you just go by QB experience and skill level, you can often get pretty close on best guessing how things shake out.
I fully expect UM to win the east, and would not be surprised to see them run the table. Because of the lack of experience and exposure to the playbook ( unlike Haskins who had a couple years with it) I see a bumpy ride for Ohio State- some good performances and a few stinkers. But they should be a tough out, they will be feisty. I think MSU and PSU will also be feisty- tough outs for anyone.
It is the west that should be fascinating. You have to respect the Badgers just based on how they have been consistently good- especially if they get solid QB play. But I feel like Nebraska is going to be really good with that QB and Frost in year 2, and Purdue returns a lot on defense to match their offensive guru of a coach. And then , in my eyes, both Northwestern and Iowa have proven they can play with anyone.
There will be a lot more games this year that will capture my fascination. Should be fun.
