Okay, I realize it is only one year, but the Big 10 represented themselves well this year! 4 wins over the 7th, 9th, 13th and 14th ranked teams in the country. Granted we will need a few more post seasons like this one, but as a BIG Buckeye fan and Big Ten supporter, all I can say is Wheeeeew!

Yes, it was an excellent year for the Big Ten... all wins and no Michigan there to enjoy it. (sorry but I have a couple friends who are rabid Michigan fans so this was fun)

Yep, I guess 4-3 can be considered a success relative to previous years. Good to see your teams actually winning the bowl games they're supposed to win

I wish the Big Ten would have a home and home series with SEC teams.
I would love to see that also! The Buckeyes have a home and home with Miami starting next year and Cal starting in 2012. A home / home with Alabama, Florida, LSU, Tennessee, etc. would be awesome.

That would be great. Personally, I love the Big Ten / ACC Challenge in basketball.
