The Big Ten conference is as strong as ever, but could even be as open as ever for anyone to take the conference crown. Ohio State is going through transition with a new head coach and quarterback in Ryan Day and Justin Fields, Michigan has yet to break through and lose a lot defensively, Penn State loses Trace McSorely, Michigan State is looking to have a healthy Brian Lewerke, and Nebraska has a Heisman candidate in Adrian Martinez.
Where does that leave Tom Allen and the Indiana football program? They look to break through and get back to a bowl game while competing near the top of the division.
