Hate to think about next year already, but the B1G could be scary good.
Wisconsin keeps its large contingent together. Ohio State will reload like always. Sparty has a number of returners. Michigan's defense stays largely intact and they should have competent QB play for the first time the last couple seasons. I think Penn State loses quite a bit, but there shouldn't be a huge drop-off. They are built to last now. And I think it will be one of those years Iowa makes a run for it as well. On PAPER 5-6 potential Top 20 teams.
The Badgers desperately need Iowa and Michigan to be Top 15-20 opponents or they will face a louder contingent again next year on their schedule. 3 non conference games in Camp Randall against 2 cupcakes, and 1 pushover.
