Maybe not solid enough but our Big10 schedule really allows us to be at the top. We play Michigan State and Illinois both only once.

It's to early to start talking smack, however with 6'11 starting center George Leach back the team has been a different. They play more confident and the defense has to stay true to the post with an actual threat downlow. Not to mention Leach is up there with Emeka Okafor as one of the premier shot blockers in the country it definitely changes the mindset of people taking it to the hole.
Indiana has as good a shot as any to win the Big10 this year because it's that wide open. Their favorable schedule to begin with could get people thinking they're better than they are as well.
On a side note I'll be down at IU tomorrow around 2 or 3 and am not leaving till sun. morning. Maybe I'll be able to come across some tickets for the IU/Minnesota game!!
