a contribution has been made in your name to the University of Miami football program (specifically, the football player bail bond fund)

In my opinion the Big Ten and the Big XII are the best football conferences overall, both conferences seem to field pretty high level talent teams who beat each other, though i would probably put the Big XII a step above the Big Ten just because their cupcake teams are actually winning games and they have the best team in the country, Oklahoma

It was ironic last year the Football champ came from the Big 10 and the Basketball from the Big XII

 

I can say this Football is huge in this neck of the woods (Texas) my son's High School stadium seats like 10,000 and will be sold out throught the HS playoffs.

 

I couldn't even do justice to the Oklahoma-UT and UT-A&M games. Those games make the Bears-Packers seem like a Sunday picnic game of two hand touch.

My pick from the start was Purdue(after I found out that Clarett was going to miss the entire season). The are really the sleeper in the bunch(considering they have gotten little attention), but they COULD very easily be undeafed if they didn't fall asleep against Bowling Green. They have the top defense in the Big Ten(yes if better then Ohio States) and a very good offense to back them up. Orton is probably the 2nd best QB in the confrence behind Smoker, and the running game has been a pleasant surprise. They also have a very good coach in Joe Tiller. The only thing they have against them is arguable the toughest schedule of the contenders with games AT Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio State. Those are some tough road games, but I think Purdue is the MOST BALANCED of the contenders and could find themselves in the Rose Bowl if they can find a way to win 2 out of those 3 tough road games.

 

Wisconsin - has the top offense in the confrence(with a healthy Davis), but their D is just too inconsistant

 

Michgan St - is probably the 2nd biggest sleeper in the confrence, and with Smoker at QB they have a chance in every game

 

Michigan - probably has the most talent of the contenders, but something seems to be missing. Perry isn't as good as his start showed and I still question Navarre.

 

Minnesota - gained a lot of respect from me after the Michigan game that they SHOULD HAVE WON. There running game is very dangerous and their QB(who has been in the league since I was in grade school it seems) is very solid. I question their defense.

 

Iowa - looks good one week and then looks bad the next. I don't think they have enough offensive firepower to win the division.

 

Ohio St. - with Clarett this team wins the Big Ten, without him they just don't have enough offense to beat the better teams.

Tex....Syracuse plays in the Big East, and they won it all last year.

 

The NCAA basketball runner up, Kansas, does play in the Big XII though.
