...would win the Big Ten this season. It would have been awesome to see Stanford slug it out with Wisconsin, Iowa, and Michigan State in the trenches this season (not that I'm saying a school from Palo Alto should be in the Big Ten, but their style of play is Big Ten ball to a t).

I for one don't think Michigan should fire Rodriguez, but if they do Big Ten coaches can bet on having a Michigan squad that will punch you right in the teeth. This Cardinal team looks nasty and I love it.

The big 10 is no longer a smash mouth conference though. Almost every team runs a version of the spread offense.

Stanford is a hell of a team. They would definitely be somewhere in the top 5 of the Big Ten mix with Ohio State, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Michigan State. They don't have the defense to say they would definitely win it though.
