Going into the season, the common thought surrounding the Big Ten was that Michigan State was the heavy favorite and the only questions were who was second-best, and were there more than three legitimately good teams in the league.

And now the biggest talking point around the league is clear: The Big Ten has been the best league in the country through the first month-plus of the season.
