Big Ten football power rankings after spring portal closes: Did Badgers get better?
The Bruins are going through a change this offseason with the loss of head coach Chip Kelly to Ohio State as an assistant. They ended last season 8-5 but went 4-5 in the Pac-12, but the competition is only going to get tougher in the Big Ten.
DeShaun Foster came into the program having to figure out how he was going to build the roster back up after transfer portal losses. He was able to keep things even in the spring window losing three guys, but bringing in three guys to make up for the loss.
The Bruins will probably be able to be competitive in 2024 with some easier opponents on the schedule, but the first season in a new conference is never easy. They might need some time tog et their feet under them in the new conference and under a new head coach.
