Will the Ohio State Buckeyes live up to their preseason status as prohibitive favorites to win the Big 10 in 2017? Can the Michigan Wolverines contend for a spot on the four-team after losing almost everyone on the defensive side of the ball? If you’ve got questions about the current NCAA football conference odds, then I’ve got answers thanks to my five fearless predictions that you’re about to get on the Big 10 as we get set for the upcoming 2017 college football season.
Will the Wisconsin Badgers surprise everyone to win the Big 10 in 2017 or will the Penn State Nittany Lions get the ‘revenge’ they’re looking for after getting left out of the four-team playoff despite winning the Big Ten a year ago?
I know Michigan lost a whopping 10 starters on the defensive side of the ball, but the Wolverines have a pretty decent quarterback of their own in Wilton Speight and they’ll be playing at home in what could be the biggest and most important game of the season.

Ohio State Buckeyes Lose Two!
The Buckeyes have a legitimate Heisman Trophy contending quarterback in dual-threat star J.T. Barrett and they won 11 games a year ago to reach the CFP despite not winning the Big 10 or beating Penn State, but I’m thinking ‘karma’ is going to come back to bite them in a big way in 2017 as they drop two games to both, fail to win the Big 10 – or reach the four-team playoff. I think the Buckeyes will be on the wrong end of a home loss against a Penn State squad that is absolutely loaded and I’ve also got Ohio State falling on the road at Michigan in their regular season finale as the Wolverines get their revenge for their heartbreaking overtime loss against the Buckeyes last season. In addition to these aforementioned pair of losses I’m expecting the Buckeyes to take this coming season, I guess I should also say that Ohio State could very well lose to Oklahoma and Baker Mayfield at home in a huge Week 2 non-conference clash.Michigan Beats Ohio State
While polarizing head coach Jim Harbaugh can come off as pretty arrogant at times, there’s no doubt the man knows how to both, build a winning program and coach the game. Having said that, I’m going to predict that Harbaugh’s Michigan Wolverines get some revenge for their crushing 30-27 overtime loss they took against Ohio State last season.
I know Michigan lost a whopping 10 starters on the defensive side of the ball, but the Wolverines have a pretty decent quarterback of their own in Wilton Speight and they’ll be playing at home in what could be the biggest and most important game of the season.
