Indiana claims the No. 1 spot in the Big Ten power rankings—just as predicted by Craig Shemon. After standing by Indiana for months, Craig Shemon explores how the Hoosiers’ superior roster and Rose Bowl berth validate early bold calls. Analyzing Ohio State’s defensive battles, Oregon’s playoff campaign, and Lincoln Riley’s promising trajectory at USC, the episode asks: Who’s best positioned for postseason glory?

Standout storylines include Michigan’s two-win improvement under Sherrone Moore, Heisman buzz around Diego Pavia,  Jeremiyah Love, Julian Sayin and Fernando Mendoza.  Plus we look at bowl outlooks for teams like Iowa, Penn State, and Nebraska. With mentions of John Mateer’s magic, Washington’s bright QB future, and shakeups at UCLA and Michigan State, the Big Ten landscape is anything but settled. Did your team land where you expected? Craig Shemon challenges listeners to weigh in on the final rankings as postseason action heats up.
