  • #1 Ohio State's offense.
  • . . .
  • #15 Ohio State's defense. Seriously, the DC should have been fired at the post-game press conference.
Will trade Brian Ferentz + $1 million, for Kevin Wilson.

No Big Ten team has had a more challenging schedule than Iowa, so far. No Big Ten team has as solid of a defense, either. Iowa's offense must be as bad or worse than Illinois', and Northwestern's. To my eye, Michigan which is currently unranked, looked really good against Washington, not so bad against W. Michigan, so I am moving them up, and that's not because Penn State or Wisconsin did poorly, or that Ohio State is so bad. Ohio State should have played better, on defense, but it is the same dead drum beat that has kept tOSU from winning the FBS championship the past few years, i.e. questionable defensive integrity.
The schedule eases up for the Hawkeyes the next two weeks with home games against Kent St., and Colorado St., before a road game at Maryland will heat things up a bit. Then Penn St. comes to Iowa City for a game at a time to be determined.
Big Ten teams #s 1 - 10, and possibly 11, appear to be competitive.

1.  OSU - I learned my lesson years ago.  You don't demote OSU just because they have an early OOC loss (or a fluky mid-season loss to an average Big Ten West team).
2. Iowa - has figured out how to win games without a great offense.  Instead winning through great defense, special teams and turnovers.  Reminds of the Ravens Super Bowl winning teams.
3.  PSU -  looking like a good team so far.
4.  Wisc - this may be too high but I will give them another week or 2 to figure it out.
5.  Indy - after seeing Iowa dominate ISU this week similar to how Iowa dominated Indy the week before, and seeing how Indy bounced back against Idaho,  Indiana does not look so bad now.
6.  Mich - dominated what I thought was a good PAC Washington team
7.  Rut - followed up blowout win over Temple with solid win over ACC SCuse
8.  MD -  MD has a bad habit of running up the score on FCS teams.
9.  MSU -  this may be the hardest team to rate.  Guess I will put them somewhere in the middle.
10.  Pur. -  all we really know is that UConn has dropped to an unbelievably bad level.  We learned almost nothing about how good Purdue is by playing UConn.
11.  Minn -  has some issues to work out
12.  Neb - dropping Neb all the way to #14 after losing to ILL may have been an over reaction
13.  NW -  just not looking good at all right now
14.  ILL -  2 straight losses,including being blown out by Va.  NEB victory is starting to look like a fluke.

1) Iowa - another dominant win.  
2) Penn State - here for now, will find out more this week.
3) Ohio State - lots of potential, but a work in progress right now.  Many get right games coming.
4) Wisconsin - just need Mertz to be consistent. 
5) Michigan - looking good against moderate competition 
6) Indiana - not ready to drop them yet
7) Rutgers - solid win.  How good are they?
8) Maryland - is this a new Maryland or will old Maryland show up and lose to Illinois on Friday
9) Michigan State - looking good against bad competition
10) Purdue - nice to be 2-0.
11) Minnesota - Struggling with Miami makes me doubt them.
12) Northwestern - won't get Iowa this time.  jNU.
13) Nebraska - has at least improved since week 0
14) Illinois - gets worse each week. Will be Illinoi in a few weeks.  Chance to get back on track against usually schizo Maryland team.
