Overall Rationale
Dropped Out: #16 Rutgers, #19 Michigan State, #23 Ohio State, #24 Texas These teams have either not looked up to what I expected which is every team but Ohio State. Ohio State has looked solid and has potential. I'm excited for the big MTE's to start should be a good way to gauge where some of these teams are at.
