you don't want OSU, PSU, Wisconsin, NE, Iowa all in the same division becasue they are all generally good year in and year out.
really????????????
nebraska and ohio st are gonna be playing for the championship almost every year
i don't know about that. PSU and Wisconsin both put out solid teams every year. This year you would have WI play in the championship game agaist MSU or NE depending on how NE would have played.
I can't wait for the first NE/OSU matchup in lincoln next year. NE is a great addition to the football side of things.

nebraska would have been the best team in the big 10. by far.
PSU stinks. they got destroyed by a shitty illinois team in happy valley.
the big 10 is a joke. I just heard this...ohio st is 0-9 all time vs SEC teams in bowl games, losing to 7 different teams. If arkansas beats them, they will be the 8th team to have beaten OSU.

big ten gets no love. SEC guys love to toss out that sec stat.
PSU was in a rebuilding year this year, breaking in a new qb. give them a couple of years and they will be back at the top of the big ten standings. OSU and WI would have both been good games vs. NE. Maybe even MSU. they got so lucky this year.
overall, the big ten had a solid season. two more BCS teams. OSU going to their 7th in a row. and, yes i know it's hard to believe, but the buckeyes have a winning record in BCS games. WI is a very solid team that can run over just about anybody in the country, or the can toss it around if they want. They also have a good defense. Don't over look the badgers in the Rose bowl.

OSU goes to a BCS game every year becasue they play in a shit conference. OSU has a good program...no doubt.
Wisconsin is an underdog vs TCU. That should tell you something. mich st is a 10 point dog in their game. PSU is getting 7 in their game. Of course the games have yet to be played, but these point spreads show you how good that conference was this year. the best team PSU beat was michigan, who blows. iowa lost to a dead fish minnesota team. Just not a good conference at all

Big Ten gets no respect.
Every team by the Buckeyes are dogs.
you really can't argue with any of the lines except for WI. I just don't buy that TCU being a favorite. yeah, they didn't give up any points, but they didn't play ANYBODY. The only decent team they played was Utah who lost to an average (at best) ND team.
The rest of the games you really can't argue the line.
I'd say, top to bottom, the Big Ten was either the 2nd or 3rd best confrence this year behind the SEC (fuck) and maybe the Big 12.

the pac 10 was the 2nd best conference...then the big 12...then I guess the big 10. after the top 3 you can take your pick from the rest of the trash.
I'm really looking forward to the tcu/wisconsin game. should be a good one. wisconsin didn't play anyone this year, except for ohio st. I give them credit for winning that game, but otherwise they beat up on scrub teams...just like tcu did

no way is teh pac 10 the second best confrence. they have two good teams, a few decent teams and a bunch of 3rd tier teams.
and Wisconsin played more than the Buckeyes. they lost to MSU who had a solid albeit lucky season. Iowa isn't a push over, all they acted that way down the stretch.

the big 10 is all 3rd tier teams!!! iowa, psu, illinois, michigan, etc. And I'll take the top pac 10 teams (oregon, stanford) over wisconsin/osu this year. not even close.
you know I am completely wrong, I could swear the changed the schedules so that they worked on a division basis..
they did change the schedules where not everyone plays each team twice anymore....and they expanded the amount of teams for the conference tourney. but i don't think they've ever gone divisional....they really should though.

purdue, indiana, nw, minn...yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck
I don't get the fascination with the big 10. so overrated
purdue is rebuilding after Tiller left.
NW is a good program for what that school is. heck, go look at the basketball team if you need any further clues as to what they are.
IN....well, they just suck.
i need to find a site that breaks the regular season matchs up by confrence.
right or wrong, it seems the "pro's" agree with my assement of the big 10
computers never lie.
and fixer may have a short memory when it comes to nebraska. they were losing at least 5 games a year up until a couple years ago.
bo pelini. beast. they are gonna dominate their division in the big 10. DOMINATE
short term, i don't think anyone will argue this.
the other division is defiantly better.
what are they thinking with those stupid names though?
the big east (for basketball) needs to split up into two divisions ASAP.
edit---is the big 10 split also for hoops??
they did?
they did change the schedules where not everyone plays each team twice anymore....and they expanded the amount of teams for the conference tourney. but i don't think they've ever gone divisional....they really should though.
this f#cking bright red turf is giving me the biggest headache ever. what the hell was eastern wash thinking??
go nova.
what is the fcs you speak of?
several teams have copied boise state in turf changing color shit. green is the only color a field should ever be.
is this epic contest being televised?
espn 5
after 3 hours of looking at that in crystal clear hd picture quality, my eyes are permanently damaged. what a disgrace.
much more common sense there than the bowl system...
did you hear about mark cuban's idea?
playoffs would be nice.
i read teh cuban thing. the article i read said it wasn't so much a money issue as it was the confrences not wanting to change.
i'm losing hope of ever seeing a playoff.
i'd say everyone should skip the bcs championship game and not watch it, but we all know that will never happen.
