Not clear to me at all that they should be the favorite this year. Turnovers a constant problem for this group and there almost seems to be a chemistry problem with the group thats been there a long time. Of course, it could all be pre-season blues, but the B10 is tough this year and their level of play thus far won't get them a banner. Other hungry teams like our beloved Gophers could shuffle them back, I hope.
MSU has some issues

Exactly. They're going to be just fine.
I would never bet against MSU but I would agree that there just seems to be something missing this year - so far. I'm sure it will come around but they just don't seem as dominant on the boards as they usually are.
Izzo schedules a very strong OOC schedule because good teams can expose weaknesses on an opponent that Izzo then knows what he will need his team to work on. Playing a weak OOC schedules does not help in the long run. MSU will come around.
