PUNTING COMPETITION AT IOWA

— Matt Brown (@MattSBN) July 30, 2015

Scary news for Iowa fans. Kirk Ferentz is so worried that he won't be able to successfully punt from his opponent's 25 yard line that he has chosen to go into camp with an open punting competition. We will carefully track this story and offer updates as they come in.

Using unofficial channels, we here at the OTE Investigative Reports desk were able to get a copy of the original Preseason All-B1G team as voted for by the media covering the conference. Unfortunately, Jim Delany used his endless power to quash this and replace it with one that was more equitable to everyone. I'm risking life and limb to reveal this to you, but I feel that the loyal OTE readers deserve the truth. The truth will SHOCK you.

Bucky's 5th Quarter breaks down the return of Paul Chryst, the continued employed of defensive coordinator Dave Aranda, and what this all means for Wisconsin's future.

Ohio with 10 total, nobody on a 1st team. Kent State with 5 and one player on 1st team defense.

Look for Kent State and Ohio players on this list as key players for the Gopher's Week 3 and 4 opponents.

No predictions just breaks down the Gopher position groups and then an acknowledgement that the only real rivalry trophy Nebraska has is the Bits of Wooden Chair Trophy. the Gophers have been the best coached team in the league in recent years and have beaten several teams that didn't bring their "A" game to face the Gophers. I don't see that changing in 2015. Underestimate the Gophers at your own peril.
