It seems strange to be reviewing predictions for Big Ten teams at this time of year-especially to compare them to UW. But this is where we are: a new season, a new conference. While Husky fans should be familiar with some of the Big Ten teams, many are probably not as familiar with all of the new teams.
Schedule
One factor that needs to be taken into account when previewing the win/loss records for each team is each team’s schedule. A team could be very good but face many tough teams (see Florida’s schedule) which could result in more losses than a team with an easier schedule (like Liberty).
