1. Michigan, but not as good as I expected. 
2. Ohio State
3.  Michigan State -  that defense looks scary. 
4.  Iowa
5.  Maryland - they looked really, really good. 
6.  Wisconsin - I knew I had them too low
7.  Penn State - a glorified spring game, I would like to see how they do against a team with a pulse. 
8.  Nebraska - probably too low, but who do I move?
9.  Northwestern
10.  Minnesota
11.  Purdue - I had higher hopes for them...
12.  Indiana
13.  Illinois
14.  Rutgers

He’s the old version of BBTZ.  He existed before BBTZ, back in the cfn days. Haha. And it’s also been about 18 years...

I like your comments,  but it is interesting that PSU gets no credit for playing a glorified spring game but MD gets a major bump for looking good in a glorified spring game.

Man, this season snuck up on me. I am still hip deep in Soccer world, and crap I had two games to get to on Saturday.
I missed all the contests and preseason ranking of the teams. so here is my Week 1 ranking.

1. Penn State - jeepers, did the other team even show up?

2. Michigan - one of these years the greatest coach in TTUN history has to win the big games right?
3. Wisconsin - hammered South Florida in their neck of the woods.
4. Ohio State - 1st 7 minutes of OSU looked like World Beaters, the next 53 minutes they actually lost to the Crying Kiffins 17-21
5. Nebraska - I always put them higher cause of helmet, maybe one year I'll be right.
6. Michigan State - Stellar D again
7. Iowa - strong win
8. Maryland - WOW, I think Marylands 1st string can compete with just about anyone.
9. Northwestern - not sold on Stanford being any good.
10. Indiana - Got the W
11. Purdue - these jokers took OSU behind the woodshed. ???
12. Minnesota - avoided the upset
13. Illinois - did't see the game, just don't have farith they are as good as the box score.
14. Rutgers - ...

Idaho is really, really bad.  Did you see the game?  Penn State walk-ons were looking like all Americans...

I actually did not see either the MD or PSU game but based on the scores, I assume both Idaho and Howard are really bad.  I heard Howard's punt team must be especially awful, which helped give MD 5 TD's.

No big deal.  If people want to rank MD higher than PSU based on MD's big win over Howard, it's ok with me.  Just thought it was interesting.

1. Ohio State - Looked good until they went up by 28 in the 1st qtr. It looks like they took their foot off the gas and lost focus.
2. Michigan - MT gave them some early fits, but UM got it together and put it away
3. Penn State - Glorified scrimmage. Still no idea on how good/bad they may be. 
4. Wisconsin - Ditto
5. Michigan State - Impressive Def. From what little bit I saw, the offense is still a concern
6. Iowa - Didn't see it, but saw that Miami OH gave them a game for a while
7. Northwestern - Could put them ahead of Iowa. Played great on D, but couldn't do much offensively
8. Nebraska - Still gotta get the kinks worked out on their offense
9. Maryland - Glorified scrimmage. Still no idea on how good/bad they may be. But it was impressive. Could move up quite a bit on this list.
10. Indiana - Had some trouble with Ball state. But pulled it out.
11. Illinois - Handled Akron. So far, looks improved from previous years.
12. Minnesota - Too much trouble with SKS. Sure, they are a good FCS team, but still. 
13. Rutgers - Had to come back against UMass. Wasn't sure that Coach Ash would have his job today had they lost. 

14. Purdue - Worst loss in the conference.

Did any team look notably better, or worse, than you expected?
