The first couple of weeks of the Big Ten season have done nothing to make me doubt my earlier assertion that the Big Ten is the best conference in college football. It really seems that, with the exceptions of Indiana and Illinois, any team can beat any other team, and what will determine a team's success in conference is its ability to finish games. Penn State has been able to finish games, and they're 3-0 in conference because of it. Michigan, on the other hand, hasn't, and they're 1-2 in conference. Right now, the conference is wide open and as many as seven or eight teams could conceivably win it.
Update: Looks like we can include Wisconsin on teams who can finish and put Michigan State under teams who can't.
Update II: I guess I picked the wrong day to say Penn State could finish games and Michigan couldn't.
