Kinda hoping perineal powerhouse stays on Malloy's bio page, because it's truly inspiring. Don't let outsiders get in this thread. If you work in a hospital or medical field, perineal powerhouse will mean something else...better check with your doctors...hehe š I thought this condition was associated with horseback riding or long-distance cycling....glad to know that Indiana University (I am an alumnus!) has discovered more sources.

I love the enthusiasm of the many teams (coaches forcing hands if communication staffs) in the league that finished below .500 this season - many of which were below .333. With the front runners returning so many starters, including some teams bringing back as many as three returning seniors - how do the lower level teams expect to make the jump?

Returning so many starters? If Rettke, Haggerty, Samedy, Pittman and Rollins leave Wisconsin and Minnesota the balance of power can be expected to shift. Illinois, who relied on 1st and 2d year players, actually returns everyone and played the āfront runnersā tough should be optimistic about āmaking the jump.ā No hyperbole or forced communications staffs necessary. Oh, and Illinois actually played them all.

The same way they have the past 5-10 years. They donāt I'm hoping Purdue, Ohio State, Illinois, and Rutgers shake up the BIG this fall. As always, a BIG factor is the d#&n BIG scheduling. Reality is 2021 Fall BIG standings will closely match 2021 Spring BIG standings. I expect Ohio State and Illinois to be very strong. They return almost everyone and showed they can hang. Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Nebraska lose a lot but have a ton of young talent and some leadership coming back. I expect Penn State to be back at the top of the leaderboard, and I anticipate Purdue dropping a bit after losing Newton. I still don't expect to see many surprises though.

They know by now to bring their A Game every night or they'll get smoked. And if their higher-ranked opponent doesn't bring their A Game, they may pull an upset. The Big Ten is loaded with sharks. Some big, some smaller. But they've all got teeth.

how's Purdue sixth?? lmfaooo Five teams will be better than them. Actually I can see them finishing higher than Minnesota. I also would switch Minnesota and Nebraska if it were my rankings.

Purdue is consistently undervalued in pre-season polls. Iād bet the Boilers beat the pre-season conference pick every year. I might put Illinois in the conversation, also. Do we know if Newton and Otec are coming back? Both a huge part of the teams success next year.
