1) Michigan. Best win of the weekend. Defense reloaded, while the offense had some fixable issues.
2) Ohio State. I'd argue that they had the 2nd best win of the weekend. Depth is awesome, but it kind of looked like same old same old from last year offensively. IU got totally gasses in the 2nd half. Lots to prove still.
3) Wisconsin. Just a gut feel here since it is hard to give too much credit for that win.
4) Penn State. Also a horrible opponent, but did what they were supposed to do.
5) Maryland. Got a nice win that could look really good a few months from now. Musical QBs continues and though I have my doubts, I have to put them at the top of tier 2 for now.
6) Iowa. A team that usually plays down to competition didnt this time. Nice win against a solid opponent.
7) Purdue. Preseason predictions be fanned, they looked pretty good Saturday night. My hesitation is that Louisville has turned in some clunkers against bad teams lately, but I saw enough to have genuine optimism for the Boilers.
8 )Indiana. What a first half. Depth is the big problem, but I think they will be able to hang with top tier teams for a half. Gotta get that running game going though if they want to close out tough games.
9) Rutgers. I don't feel horribly confident here, but they hung tough with a good team. I think we have to start the year fresh and take 77-0 out of our mind.
10) Michigan State. Haven't seen anything yet that tells me they will win more games this year.
11) Nebraska. Another year, another shaky non conference game.
12) Minnesota. Row the boat, but in which direction?
13) Northwestern. See Nebraska.
14) Illinois. Glad most of us got them out of the way.
