Every summer since 2007 I have created an intricate set of college football predictions for each upcoming season.  This year is no exception, as I will be using my blog over the next few weeks to publish my 10th annual college football preview guide.  Without further ado, here are my predictions for the Big Ten Conference.  Note: the records below reflect each team’s predicted regular season overall record followed by their conference record and excludes conference title games and bowl games which will be previewed later on in separate columns on this blog.
