Speculating in late February which teams will play for a championship in January is asking to be mocked.
But if you are looking for a solid pick with good odds and love to bet on the dark horse, dont forget a successful team in the Big Ten.
Its a team that returns most of its offensive starters, including an All-American running back, and an all conference wide receiver.
In defense, 3 linemen and all 3 linebackers will return.
That team will have to beat a tough West Coast opponent on the road to reach Miami.
Beware of the Wisconsin Badgers!

Ohio State looks pretty good again, not like a BCS champion but probably the Rose Bowl. They look to be the best in the Big Ten.

Yes they do look to be the obvious one, but this guy is predicting a dark horse. Dark horses are not the obvious one.

I would put the Badgers fourth in the Big Ten behind the Buckeyes and Illinois.

No no bears. Higher than 4th.
Wait a minute, I only get three teams out of that. Badgers, Buckeyes and Illinois. Who's the other one??

Probably Michigan, but I'm not so sure. For that matter, I'm a little skeptical of the Illini without Mendenhall. They may have a down year.

Well, you have to change it around a bit. Badgers, Buckeyes, and then Illinois. OK?
