The winds of change are sweeping across Big Ten football this season.
And nowhere is it more evident than at quarterback. Of the 11 who started in season openers a year ago, only Michigan's Chad Henne, Penn State's Anthony Morelli and Purdue's Curtis Painter are expected to start this season's openers.
Gone are Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith of Ohio State, Iowa's Drew Tate, Michigan State's Drew Stanton, among others, replaced by newcomers and up-and-comers. The top five departing quarterbacks in the Big Ten accounted for nearly 12,000 yards and 100 touchdown passes last season.
"I think in a lot of ways you're going to see a different face on the Big Ten this season because of how many quarterbacks are still finding their way,'' second-year Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema said. "I think teams are just going to have to make adjustments until they feel real comfortable with the guy behind center.''

How much will this affect Bowl bid chances in the Big Ten? Wil Michigan have a clear edge over Ohio State because of it?

I think Michigan are the front runners in the Big 10 this year. The buckeyes have too much rebuilding to do in my eyes, and Michigan has quite a few starters returning on offense that gave Ohio St all they could handle last year.

I am with you on that...I think Michgan pulls through this year.

Henne and Morelli are both talented QBs, but Michigan also returns the Big Ten's best tailback in Mike Hart. So, yeah, I think that has to give them the edge.

Don't forget about Manningham. Before his injury, he was one of the top receivers in the Big 10...maybe the NCAA. He is returning also, I think.
