Ohio State is a big favorite to win the Big 10 this upcoming college football season.
According to Pro Football Focus, the Buckeyes have a 48% chance of winning the conference after 10,000 simulations. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
Iowa has a 17% chance and Wisconsin has an 11% chance.

I understand Ohio State being the favorite to win the conference, but this gap seems way too big. The gap between OSU and the Badgers is downright huge.
Again, the Buckeyes have all the talent in the world, and should be favored out of the gate. However, I’m not sure they should be favored by this much.

Also, I’m shocked that Iowa has a better chance than the Badgers. That can’t be real, right? Are we really putting that much stock into their win last season over Wisconsin?
We were decimated by injuries and COVID. There’s little to no chance that happens again. If Wisconsin is healthy, then we should roll through the B1G West. That’s just a fact.

No matter what happens, I’m super excited for week one to get here. It’s going to be an electric season.
