BTN Big Ten Power Rankings: Michigan reclaims No. 1 spot

Big Ten Power Rankings: Michigan reclaims No. 1 spot
Brent Yarina, BTN.com Senior Editor via Big Ten Network

One week, that's how long Michigan's stint at No. 2 lasted in my latest Big Ten Power Rankings, presented by ArcelorMittal. The Wolverines return to No. 1, thanks to wins over Minnesota and Indiana, coupled with Michigan State's loss at Purdue.

Ohio State @ Nebraska, Saturday, January 26 @ 12pm, FS1

He's also the only consistent offensive threat--although with teams doubling him at will and him either turning it over or passing it to a perimeter player who can't make the defensive collapse pay, that is starting to wear off and, yeah, our offense is getting bogged down when we try to run it through him.

But if Andre and Luther can keep scoring from outside then we might have something. Still need more improvement from the other guards, but they were better yesterday. If we're not going to hit outside shots, then, yeah, we might as well take Kaleb out.

Team Recruiting Rankings Correlation to Team Success

These graphs are probably the best explanation of the statement that "stars do matter". While the majority of Super Bowl starters (and all NFL players, for that matter) were not 4* or 5* recruits, a vastly higher percentage of 4* and 5* recruits makes it to the NFL than the percentage of 2* and 3* recruits.

I was wondering what "all recruits" meant and hoping for a P5... but he did post one for D1. Not sure if that includes FCS or not.

Ohio State vs. Maryland, Friday, January 18 @ 630 pm, FS1

There were a lot of bad plays this game for OSU. Some difficult to watch stuff. One that really stuck out to me is the possession MD had a guard drive the ball in the paint and stop, with just 3 seconds to go in the shot clock, Woods turns his back to the ball and isnt guarding the driver but is still an inexplicably long distance from covering his man beyond the arc, Terp player is waiting in the corner and gets a kick out for an easy 3 to beat the shot clock. It's one thing to get caught watching the ball, it's another to have your back to the ball and still be so far off your man to give up an uncontested 3. And there was also that possession where Woods completely left his man beyond the arc to guard nobody in particular in the paint and MD got another wide open 3. Woods needs to figure out how to guard or sit the bench.

I hate to say it because Woods was helping us win games in the non-con, but aside from the Illinois game he has been anything but a positive in B1G play. Right now playing him is just taking away developmental PT for guys like Washington and Ahrens. He should still be in the rotation on the off-chance he has a good game but at this point I want more minutes for Washington, even if Washington is gonna struggle.

Reading up on Scott some today has helped me understand his career and his battle with Parkinsons. I wish him the best as he battles the disease.
