1. Wisconsin - Having a guy like Russell Wilson coming aboard should make replacing Scott Tolzien less daunting. Defense should be better, too.
2. Nebraska - Nebraska's speed is expected to serve them well in the Big 10 but they'll still need better, more consistent play at QB, regardless.
3. Michigan State - Did the Spartans find lightning in a bottle only to be exposed in their bowl game last year? Probably somewhere in between.
4. Ohio State - If the Buckeyes can just be solid at QB and maintain their standard of play defensively, the chaos will be minimized and a Top 25 finish will be achieved once again.
5. Iowa - It's all about replacing Ricky Stanzi.
6. Michigan - Brady Hoke's one to keep your eye on, especially as it relates to finally making an impact on Michigan's D.
7. Penn State - Question marks on offense are enough to where its buyer beware for anyone investing in more than seven or eight wins in 2011.
8. Illinois - No Mikel LeShoure to take the focus off the inefficient passing game. So now what, Zooky?
9. Northwestern - The Wildcats are set at QB but lack of depth elsewhere is always a concern. Pat Fitzgerald does well with middle-of-the-pack at best talent.
10. Purdue - The Boilermakers lose a couple of key defensive contributors, which makes the slow progress of the offense under Coach Hope even more worrisome.
11. Minnesota - I guess Glen Mason wasn't so bad after all, eh?
12. Indiana - The Hooisers get a very good offensive mind in former OC Kevin Wilson. Now, can they get the players?
2. Nebraska - Nebraska's speed is expected to serve them well in the Big 10 but they'll still need better, more consistent play at QB, regardless.
3. Michigan State - Did the Spartans find lightning in a bottle only to be exposed in their bowl game last year? Probably somewhere in between.

I would agree....but if Miller gets hurt, (...and judging by the hits he took yesterday, its likely) then I would drop us down below PSU and maybe even below NW. We will know a lot more 2 weeks from today.
