Why is everyone harshin the Big10? Overall Record 26-7: 6 undefeated .. 9 w/ winning records.. 3 in the top 10

Understood that one of the B10's powerhouses is down this year, I'm reminded however of the year of the Luckeye (2002) when a "W" was all that mattered. Miami was rolling as usual that year and the Bucks were sputtering win after win after win, all close nailbiters failing to inspire much confidence in their #2 ranking. The result of all those mediocre "W"'s was a 14-0 season and a National Championship. I'd be interested to know historically, what is the average overall B10 W-L record heading into conference play.
