Big Ten Power Poll - Week 1

We have 14 blogs who have committed to participating in the 1st annual Big Ten Bloggers Basketball Power Poll (BTBBBPP, whatever). If you want to read each individual blog's poll you can find their links at the bottom of this post. BTBBBPP post of the week clearly goes to Black Heart Gold Pants with an excellent analysis of the Big Ten teams and their logical corresponding presidential candidate. It was pretty good, even for an Iowa blog written by self professed, "degenerate drunken plagiarizing gambling addicts." I'm sure their spike in traffic from the GN link above should be relatively equivalent to what they saw with the deadspin link.

Speaking of plagerism...

Hooray the BTBBBPP, Hooray!
