This from an espn blog article by Rittenberg.
The whole reason I put this poll up is because of tOSU. I mean, they can't play in a bowl. How could they possibly win the MNC then? Granted, the Buckeyes are probably most likely to finish highest in the polls. But, oddly, since they can't go bowling I don't think could possibly win the title. How would that even work?
And Wisconsin? Oh come on. Really? They are going to miss Russell Wilson a LOT more that they realize. Plus they catch a brutal part of the Legends division this year, playing Michigan, Michigan State, and Nebraska. I just don't see the Cheeseheads going the distance.
Instead I gotta go with one of the Legends teams. It's hard to choose between Michigan/Mich State. Beside, those guys are chokers on a big stage. And hey, I'm an NU Kool-Aid drinker this time of year anyway. So I'm going with good ole NU.
