It's probably too early to tell, because we've only really had 1.5 weekends of college football.  But I found an interesting article from Bill Connelly that makes a compelling case based on last week's performances as they compared to his S&P+ predictions against the Vegas spread.

Compared to expectations, the Big Ten was the conference with the best opening weekend.

Nine of 14 teams overachieved their projections, all by at least a touchdown, and Indiana’s underachievement came at the expense of overachieving conference mate Ohio State.

And yes, because the divisions weren’t imbalanced enough already, six of seven Big Ten East teams overachieved, while only four of seven Big Ten West teams underachieved.

Divisions are dumb. But if Maryland and Rutgers are both better than projected, and Indiana is as solid as it looked in the first 2.5 quarters or so against Ohio State, then the Big Ten East might challenge the SEC West as the best of the dumb divisions. (Of course, five of seven SEC West teams also overachieved.)

The full article is a good read.
