I do think Ryan Walters will do very good at Purdue. What I mean by that is, 8 wins and playing tough on defense. Just needs to get a Big Ten run game going and chew some clock as needed.
I feel like Wisconsin, Purdue and Minnesota will keep things a weekly tough challenge for opponents in this league, and teams like Iowa, Illinois, Michigan State, drop a peg or 2. Teams like Maryland, Rutgers, NW, Indiana remain near the bottom half. Michigan, Ohio State the best in the league, and Penn State can always fluctuate year to year.
Where the Huskers fit in the equation I don't know just yet. But we all hope by year 2 and beyond that we are trending up and up and up. And move past PSU....
Of course, USC and UCLA (and possibly a few other additions) will add a new dimension to it. But, they will have to learn how to play Big Ten football - a style that dictates the league - and not conforming to newcomers. So that will be exciting to watch down the road too.
