Here comes the BOOM
How does returning 18 starters IIRC count as reloading? I wonder how the hell they would describe 2006 and 2007.

The Big 10 is gonna be garbage again this year, and tOSU will dominate! But we can't stumble in games we're supposed to win(like Illinois last year), other than that we have no threats in this conference, other than the usual scUM rivalry, but they're gonna get stomped too. USC is our only real test, let's hope we don't face another SEC team in the BCS championship again(if we get selected into the game again, the nation is kind of sick of watching us getting our a$$es handed to us by the same conference).

for the most part he's right......
PSU- They'll always be solid, and a test but they will not have a reliable passing game. Plus with all the suspensions they have there'll be a couple kicked off the team. Big blow with Quarrles gettin in trouble.2
Illinois- Everyone keeps saying they're going to be better, but I don't see it. They lost Lehman who was their everything on defense, and they also lose their best D-tackle. IMO, things will be easier to come by with our offense. Juice will have to throw more because of a lack of a running threat. Sure Dufrain or whatever had that run against us, but that's all he did the ALL GAME. Zook game plans us tough so we'll get tested atleast.
Wisconsin- They could pose problems for us because you KNOW it'll be a night game up in Madison. Good running game, but losing your top cover corner is not a good thing, and with the way we ran the ball on them...
Michigan- No, just no....The talent they have returning almost makes you feel bad for them.... ALMOST.
MSU-they might put up some numbers on offense, but thats it. They lost so much on that defensive front 7 that gave us fits in our game last year. Goodbye pass rush, goodbye TE #80.
The only teams that are any good besides OSU IMO is Wisconsin/Illinois and I think Illinois will have troubles without Lehman/Mendenhall. So really I think our biggest and only test next year (besides USC, who is our biggest) will be Wisconsin due to the fact its in Madison. Plus you got to remember they're breaking in a new QB. Since I live in minnesota a know a players father from wisconsin and he tells me the QB is mobile but makes bad decisions throwing the football...So I think the big ten is going to be somewhat down again. There's not another superstar national powerhouse team besides OSU next year...not one. Where as usually Michigan accompanies us in the top 10, but not next year thats for sure

I could be mistaken, but I don't think it was the critique of the B10 that raised Soldier's ire with the dipshit. It's the horseshit comments regarding the remainder of our schedule and bowl game outcomes.

2008 Spring Preview - The Big Ten
Ohio State OT Alex Boone

Yup, Ohio State is loaded again, but along with Alex Boone's Buckeyes, the rest of the much-maligned Big Ten will be better. As spring ball gets rolling, here are the big questions, the most important positions and more for each Big Ten team in the CFN Spring Preview.

Penn State? 
Can we please do away with the tradition-thought and just admit that PSU is no longer any good? Thanks.
