By adding these 4 teams, from an historical perspective at least, the Big certainly added more competitive teams in USC, Wash, Oregon, UCLA than what Nebraska, Rutgers, Maryland, Indy, Illinois, Minny has contributed in last 20 years. (And I'm giving credit for those years when teams like Purdue, Iowa, MSU, NW are able to effect an upset). So yes, the Big should have more competitive games, but don't see Oregon (UCLA, OSU and Mich in first 5 games) staying top 5 all year with their schedule.
