I still say 5-6 teams from the Pac-10 would be a very good year, and no one's talking about it.

Ohio St is a lock at 9-9 in league. Did Wisconsin have a major injury or are you just saying they are done at 3-5 league? No reason they can't get back to 9-9 which will put their RPI right around 40 and give them a strong case. If Michigan could manage .500 in league they'd likely be in with an expected RPI around 33. Northwestern and Penn St would probably need 10-8 league to have a shot which is doubtful since their RPIs are weaker (not to mention their basketball tradition). Best case for the B10 is that Northwestern and Penn St drop off and start losing like they are supposed to.
