This week's conference preview: the Big Ten. Is this the year the league breaks through and wins a national title? On paper, the league's strength is in its depth, not its top-end teams. But can a new-look Illinois team repeat as Big Ten champs? Does a re-worked roster around Hunter Dickinson get Michigan back to the top? Or can Indiana run it back with Trayce Jackson-Davis and Xavier Thompson and win it? Plus, thoughts on a new coach at Maryland, the bubble hopes for teams like Rutgers and Wisconsin and much, much more.
