1) Ohio State - Flawed team defensively, but the offense is good enough to overcome it
2) Michigan - Complete team, if a bit uninspiring at times
3) Michigan State - Getting the most out of the talent on the team
4) Wisconsin - Finally rolling.
5) Penn State - Tough loss. This is a solid team, but not more.
6) Purdue - They've got a puncher's chance in any game.
7) Iowa - Defense keeps them this high.
8) Minnesota - Stumbling a bit now, after a good start early.
9) Nebraska - Maybe should be higher, but they have to win occasionally to move up.
10) Illinois - Have pulled enough upsets that they can't go lower.
11) Rutgers - Beating the teams they are supposed to, other than that Northwestern game.
12) Maryland - Running out of gas. Probably not going bowling.
13) Northwestern - Not their year
14) Indiana - Definitely the worst team
