247 Sports 2024 Team Composite, Recruits and Transfers, Rankings. Team Talent Composite 2024: Familiar names atop list of most talented teams, but parity is here 247SPORTS.COM For the seventh consecutive year, the trio of Alabama, Georgia, and Ohio State have produced the top three spots in the 247Sports Composite Team Rankings. But a new age of parity and a trend... OBD moves up from 10th in 2023 to 6th in 2024. Top 50 on the 2024 schedule: 3 Ohio State; 16 Michigan; 27 Wisconsin; 29 UCLA; 35 UW; 37 Purdue; and 41 Michigan State.

This is the same maturity that Michigan fielded last season and Oregon and Ohio State bring to the table in 2024. Experience makes a difference; especially, when playing 16 or 17 games to win a title. And it doesn't hurt that Dan has another year of experience. Pet Peeve - Sark in his career has one conference title that came with a roster advantage in the B12. With a better-rated roster, he lost to UW in Houston with the game close only because DeBoer late in the 4th Q didn't have his RB take a knee. Sark abandoned the run game much too early vs. UW, a mistake that Harbaugh did not make in the champ game. This was Sark's second loss to UW in consecutive seasons. But it's Danno who cannot win the big games, right? Even with an easy SEC schedule, I see Texas losing 3 games in 2024; I think Texas is the most overrated team coming into this season.

NJ, should this information regarding how to tune into B1G+ be pinned? Jon Wilner reported today that B1G+ will have a replay of every game including the games streamed on Peacock. Week 2 vs. Boise will be streamed on The Bird. I don't know if streamed games can be recorded. Does someone more tech-savvy, everyone on the board, know the answer?

WOW! Michigan Site Maize + Brew (brewskis will be available in the Big House this season 😍) Predicts OBD to go 12-0 in 2024! Predicting the final records for each of Michigan’s 2024 opponents WWW.MAIZENBREW.COM Last year, many argued the Wolverines faced a soft schedule en route to a National Championship. Today, we’ll predict how each of Michigan’s 2024 opponents will fare this season: Texas 11-1 with the Fansville QB jinx? I don't see it!

Steven A., hopefully, Tier One for OBD will mean tears for the Buckeyes. 😁

Oregon's opening game, at Nebraska in 1953 was the National Game of the Week on NBC. The game was played when the NCAA had its CFB broadcast monopoly. This was the 1st national broadcast of a Ducks and Cornhuskers regular season game. OBD won, 20-12.😍 Rex FISCHER (!) was the starting QB (Tailback) for the Huskers. Nebraska put together a 63-yard drive in the second quarter to make it a 13-6 game, with Rex Fischer going 4 yards for the TD. But Oregon answered less than a minute later with Ted Anderson's 56-yard run off right tackle to make it 20-6. After a scoreless third period, lighting struck early in the fourth for Nebraska as Fischer found halfback Ennis Korinek all alone at the Oregon 41. The 68-yard pass play made it a 20-12 game. Later in the fourth period, a Bob Wagner interception near midfield gave the Huskers a chance to salvage a tie, but Nebraska stalled after getting inside the Ducks' 25. Oregon ran out the clock from there, driving all the way to the NU 2 before the Ducks' Walter Gaffney was caught on an end sweep for a 7-yard loss by George Gohde and Jim Yeisley on the game's final play. NOTES: It was a rough outing for NU center Jim Oliver. In addition to the two bad snaps, he was flagged for being downfield illegally on Nebraska's final offensive play. ... The teams logged identical totals of first downs (12) and total yards (272). ... Oregon's only lost fumble was on a punt return. NU recovered at the Oregon 28 but soon fumbled it right back to the Ducks at the 15. ... Oregon averaged 5.8 yards per rush vs. the Huskers' 2.8.

Great take, Charles, thank you. It's time for Oregon to wake up the B1G traditionalists and let them know that there's a new gunslinger in town ready to call out the Sheriff, Ohio State, and his deputies, Michigan and Penn State. Saturday Blitz is on board. Oregon Ducks Poised to Be a Force in the 2024 Season SATURDAYBLITZ.COM The Oregon Ducks are emerging as a true contender in the Big Ten. With Coach Dan Lanning at the helm, the Ducks are not just eyeing a competitive season—they're Pulverize the Potato Pickers on the Big Ten Network and show the B1G folks what's coming!

In conference, SC misses Oregon and Ohio State and plays Penn State in LA. The speed advantage that SC had over Louisville in the Holiday Bowl will show up against many B1G teams. Without the new D coaching crew and absent Grinch, SC D players made tackles in space vs, Louisville. USC opened the wallet for the new D coaches. SC has a Blue-Chip roster along with Oregon, Ohio State, Penn State, and Michigan. SC can lose to both LSU and Notre Dame and still be a threat to play in the B1G champ game. My betting group has money down on SC going Over 7.5. SC had a more difficult conference schedule in the Pac-12 last season than it will have in the B1G this season. SC gets Penn State, Rutgers, Wisconsin, and Nebraska in LA. The road games at Minnesota, Maryland, UW, and UCLA are winnable and at Michigan is not a certain loss. SC will have a decided roster advantage against all but Penn State and Michigan and the better QB with Moss. Schedule Tidbit. The Rutgers at SC game kicks off at 11 PM Eastern. As the beat writer for Rutgers noted - Last Call in Jersey and Happy Hour in LA. 😁

7:30 Eastern is a heck of a lot better than 10:30. A 9 AM Pacific KO would not work for the FOX Big Noon game but could have been a 12:30 Pacific KO on CBS. I imagine CBS will carry the Penn State at SC game at 12:30. UW at Iowa is likely to be the B1G Noon game. Pulverize the Potato Pickers!

QB Play in the B1G Will Make a Difference. DUH! But a good review of B1G QB situations from Trojans Wire. I'm surprised 😁 that there is no mention of Gabe. Big Ten quarterbacks are not surefire stars entering 2024 season TROJANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Big Ten quarterbacks, including but not limited to Miller Moss, have a lot to prove this year.

Trojans Wire Ranks the B1G Schedules. 2024 Big Ten football schedule reveals significant differences TROJANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Iowa has the easiest schedule of any Big Ten football team. Washington might have the toughest. I do not agree that Iowa has the easiest conference schedule. IMO, this distinction goes to Rutgers. The Knights miss Oregon, Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, and Iowa. USC is the only preseason top-25 ranked team the Rutgers has on the B1G schedule. If QB Athan Kaliakmanis reunited with OC Kirk Ciarrocca (no need to buy a vowel 😁) can improve his game, Rutgers could win nine or ten games in 2024. Every season through 2028, Iowa will play Minnesota, Nebraska, and Minnesota, half of the old Western Division. Iowa does play in Columbus the week before Ohio State trips to Autzen but that's it for AP preseason-ranked teams.

Possibly and thanks for bringing this up; however, Liberty could go 13-0 and a 9-4 B12 champ will have a far better strength of schedule. Hopefully, SOS will matter in 2024. Boise plays Oregon, Oregon State, and Wazzu which will help its SOS. Memphis plays at Florida State. Tulane plays K State and at Oklahoma back-to-back. Liberty for the second season in a row plays no P4 opponent. A lot of 'interesting stuff' would have to happen for the G5 representative to be seeded higher than 12th.

Yellow is the most recognizable color in the spectrum. When I was a kid way back when, fire trucks were red. They are now Yellow as they should be. Blackout? If the Ohio State game kicks off at 4:30 PM Pacific, the game will finish in the dark. Please, no 7:30 Pacific KO for this game. Depending on the time of KO, if OBD decides to go Black, wear yellow helmets. All-black unis are not a QB's friend. Thanks, David. Pound the Potato Pickers!

Tradition Crystal Ball: Predicting every Oregon football game in 2024 SATURDAYTRADITION.COM Predicting every game for Oregon in the 2024 regular season. Based on the schedule, 11-1 is spot on IMO. However, I think a fired-up Oregon squad will win in the Big House. 11-1 likely means a rematch with Ohio State in the B1G champ game in Indianapolis.
