2017 FOOTBALL PROSPECTUS

PRESEASON NOTES
BIG TEN. BIG NEWS.
Penn State was crowned Big Ten Champion
after its 38-31 victory over Wisconsin in the
Big Ten Championship Game. It was the
Nittany Lions' fourth Big Ten title and first
since 2008. Penn State will look to repeat as
conference champions for the first time in pro-
gram history.
Ohio State, Penn State and Wisconsin will all
look to repeat as division champions this sea-
son, as the Badgers finished 7-2 to win the
West Division and the Buckeyes and Nittany
Lions both completed the season with 8-1
marks to finish tied atop the East Division. Last
season's divisional crowns marked the second
for Penn State, third for the Badgers and fifth
for the Buckeyes.
Allen first joined the Indiana football staff as
associate head coach in 2016. A 25-year
coaching veteran, Allen helped lead a dramatic
turnaround of Indiana's defense in 2016, just
as he had done before at Ole Miss and South
Florida.
Fleck heads to Minnesota after spending
four years as the head coach at Western
Michigan, where he was 30-22 overall and
21-11 in the Mid-American Conference. While
leading the Broncos, Fleck authored one of the
most memorable turnarounds in college foot-
ball history. The Broncos were 1-11 in his first
year in 2013, but ended last season with a
13-1 record, a conference championship and a
berth in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic.
