Summary

The Cover 3 crew picks over-under win totals for the Big Ten West. After a quick rundown of recent headlines including Ohio State AD Gene Smith announcing his retirement plans (2:34) and the latest reporting around possible ACC expansion (7:15), the win totals breakdowns start with Year 1 of Luke Fickell at Wisconsin (18:38) and Iowa's efforts to improve its offense in pursuit of a division title (26:01). Then it's on to offensive turnover at Minnesota (33:49) and Illinois (41:35), plus the expectations for first-year coaches at Nebraska (49:24), Purdue (56:27) and Northwestern (1:01:55).
