Summary
A conference preview, draft and power ranking rolled up into one jumbo-sized podcast burrito? *Ding* Order's up. Chris Vannini along with Scott Dochterman and Cameron Teague-Robinson, The Athletic's Iowa and Ohio State scribes, respectively, breakdown every squad in the new-look 18-team conference. Each host drafts a program to discuss and the subsequent draft order comprises the league power rankings -- hence the 'Power Draft Preview'. Is Ohio State or Oregon the league's best? How high will Nebraska rise? Is Michigan being slept on? Which of Michigan St., Indiana, or Washington, all lead by new head coaches, will make the best impression? Plus, dark horse, offensive player of the year, and more superlatives.
