Big Ten Schedules

I have taken my freaking time with these predictions, but I have been occupied with Fresno State spring practice. Practice is winding down, and so are many other programs'. The Big Ten was one of the best, if not the best, football conferences last year, and this year should be no different. It is getting closer to the end of spring but these predictions are still just knee-jerk picks. (red=predicted loss)
