The Big Ten is now Iowa's to lose.
The Hawkeyes have been impressive in the early going and have already gathers four wins over Purdue and Michigan State. The Boilers and Spartans have also dropped other games, meaning they both need a lot of help if they are going to get back into the race (and they still play each other once). Yes, Indiana is there, but I am still doubting things with them until they play an actual good team in league play. Yes, 7-0 is an inarguable 7-0, but there is very little question that theirs has been much easier to come by when they might have played one NCAA team in the bunch (Ohio State is bubble at best).
