Schlabach's top two Big Ten teams are no surprise. Reigning Big Ten and Rose Bowl Game champ Michigan State leads the way at No. 4, while Ohio State comes in at No. 7. The other three teams: No. 14 Wisconsin, No. 19 Iowa and No. 21 Michigan.

Here's what Schlabach said about the Big Ten teams.

21. Michigan

Wolverines coach Brady Hoke, who is trying to regain momentum after a disappointing 7-6 finish in 2013, signed a smaller recruiting class that wasn't as highly ranked as his previous two. Read more.
