Minus head coach Jim Harbaugh, the defending national champion Michigan Wolverines are a relative long shot to win the Big Ten in 2024. That team up north is +550, putting them behind rival Ohio State, newcomer Oregon, and Penn State. The Buckeyes have what is thought by many experts to be the premier defense in college football and Kansas State transfer QB Will Howard to bring more explosiveness to the offense. Pac-12 import Oregon lost a lot of talent but will insert transfer Dillon Gabriel in at QB. Few teams lost more than aforesaid Michigan, including the entire OL and eight players on defense. 

Penn State is my pick as a qualified longshot. James Franklin’s Nittany Lions have been perpetual bridesmaids, flopping in big games, keeping the odds higher than they should be. Drew Allar is a talented QB and State has a ton of frontline talent and depth on defense. At more than 5-1, they offer fantastic value.
