1. NEBRASKA

Top returnees in the division make the Huskers a convincing pick, especially if the West Coast offense comes together in Bill Callahan's third season.

2. KANSAS

Tradeoff on South opponents would make Monty Hall blush. Should catapult Jayhawks into a contender as long as new QB Kerry Meier stays healthy.

3. IOWA STATE

Potent offense features the Big 12's best receiver, Todd Blythe, yet the Cyclones' firepower could be negated by a tough schedule and poor D.

4. MISSOURI

The Tigers may feature the best personnel in the division, but sixth-year coach Gary Pinkel seems to lose a couple of games each season he shouldn't.

5. KANSAS STATE

The best player on offense is a walk-on, Jordy Nelson. The best player on defense is a walk-on, Marcus Watts. Each started on the other side of the ball.

6. COLORADO

Go figure. The Buffaloes captured North titles four of the last five years and new coach Dan Hawkins is gaining rave reviews. Talent, however, appears thin.
