Heck, if any of those four schools played Miami of Ohio, Northern Illinois or Ball State, everyone would be raving about how the ACC was going to be an offensive powerhouse this year.
Depending on how Florida's and LSU's season shake out, I'd give either the SEC or ACC the nod as top conference. Big 10 doesn't begin to approach either one.

Sure some of the big 10 teams played weak opponents but so did some of the ACC and SEC. East carolina(loss!), vandy(loss!), navy(almost loss), and W. michigan(close in the 4th quarter) don't scare too many people. I'll take the bottom 4 big ten teams(MSU, PSU, Ill, and IU) over the bottom 4 ACC schools(maryland, wake, UNC, duke) or the bottom 4 SEC schools(Miss, Miss st, UK, vandy) right now. Are the big 10's top as good as other conferences top? Maybe not but we are going to find out soon.
BTW, feel free to argue over who belongs at the bottom of each conference this was just a first pass.
