With the news today RU Womens Soccer was voted preseason 1st place in the Big Ten (first time in history for any RU sport, in any conference), it got me thinking what it would take for this to happen in football.
This is a huge event because it shows that not only are our sports improving their records, but the respect is finally coming with it. In my opinion, this would have to happen:
-RU comes off a Big Ten football title the year before, and a bowl win/CFB playoff championship
- 1 of OSU, Michigan, and PSU come off a down year
- the other 2 both have freshman QBs, ie their starters the year before we’re seniors (this would be make it the most difficult, since we would also have had to win the conference given both of them behind senior QBs). Thoughts?
