I know these rankings are to date when I unfortunately see Ohio State sliding down in the coming weeks. I know that in the Iowa game thread MaxBuck disagreed with me about how much the loss of Crater is going to mean to this team. I will admit the loss of Lighty is greater but the loss of our backup PG will play a significant role unless PJ can really step it up on offense from what I saw last year. Offult will be able to play some PG but that is not his normal position. He is more of a 2 guard.
I pretty much agree with the rankings but I think Wisconsin will come up as the season progresses and, as I have mentioned, I think we will slide a little. I also think that Illinois could be a surprise team and finish in the top 3-4 at the end of the season.
