1. Ohio State
2. Penn State
3. Iowa
4. Michigan
5. Wisconsin
6. Maryland
7. Indiana
8. Purdue
9. Michigan State
10. Rutgers
11. Minnesota
12. Illinois
13. Nebraska
14. Northwestern

Lotta West teams at the bottom. Actually really impressed with Minnesota but want to see the team without Ibrahim. Devastating injury. OSU and Iowa with major tests this week. Not sure what to make of Michigan, but they do have an interesting game vs a Washington team coming off a major upset loss to Montana. Purdue, MSU and Rutgers all look to have strong offenses and we will see how they carry over in the coming weeks. Indiana I think has a really talented defense, but boy do they have some work to do on the other side.

Massey Computer Rankings:

1. Alabama
2. Ohio St.
3. Iowa
4. Penn St.
5. Georgia

11. MSU

17. Iowa St.

19. Purdue

23. Wisconsin

26. Maryland

I don't think Iowa has been ranked this high since they were ranked #1 in 1985 for 2-3 weeks; and, before that in 1960. Well, those were in the AP poll, not computer polls. Early computer polls, are deranged polls, but fun to view if you are a hayseed in rural NE Iowa just 20 miles from the Field of Dreams.
The computer side of the BCS had Iowa at #1 for a bit in 2009.

  • Ohio State -1 Didn't look like a CFP team but there is time to work on things.  
  • Penn State -3 Wins in Madison are impressive.  
  • Wisconsin -2 Played well against PSU but left way too many points on the field.  
  • Iowa -4 Looked REALLY good, or is IU that bad?  
  • Michigan -5 Looked like a top-tier B1G team should look against a decent MAC team.  
  • Minnesota -7 Looked good in the loss.  
  • Maryland -12 WVU is a decent team and UMD beat them.  Now will this be like past seasons or can they keep up?  
  • Rutgers -13 Looked like a quality B1G team.  
  • Michigan State -11 Are they this good or is NU this bad?  
  • Indiana -6 I doubt they are as bad as they looked but that was ugly.  
  • Purdue -10 Got a win!  
  • Northwestern -8 That was ugly.  
  • Illinois -14 Win over UNL, loss to UTSA . . .
  • Nebraska -9 Sorry @FearlessF but that loss to IL, ugh.

Notice how Medina ranked Rutgers 8th, right where I had them when he was busting my chops about it last week. O0

For about the eighteenth time I wasn't arguing with you, I questioned it because your ranking was substantially different from the group and I wondered what you saw that made you think that.  Right now, looks like you were right.

For basically the entire time that there has been a B1G-E and a B1G-W to compare the B1G-E has been top and bottom heavy.  Typically the B1G-E ended up with #1 (Ohio State) and one or two others (typically PSU and one of the Michigan Schools) near the top and then a bunch of bottom feeders.  

At least so far this week that has dramatically changed.  As the votes stand right now the bottom four teams are all from the B1G-W (UNL, NU, IL, PU).  

Obviously there is a LOT of football left to be played and things can (and will) change a LOT between now and the end of the season but at least for now it *LOOKS* like the bottom feeders from the B1G-E have gotten off the mat and put together decent teams such that, at least for now, it *LOOKS* like the B1G-E is substantially better than the B1G-W.  

Rankings as of the votes so far:

  • Ohio State
  • Penn State
  • Iowa
  • Wisconsin
  • Michigan
  • Maryland
  • Minnesota
  • Michigan State
  • Indiana
  • Rutgers
  • Purdue
  • Illinois
  • Northwestern
  • Nebraska

Oh the Big Ten East will have some bottom feeders again this year.  We just don't know who they are yet.

Every year there is a school or 2 that looks good early then falls apart quickly  ( I'm looking at you MD).  Last year it was Michigan and Purdue.  Michigan blew out Minnesota in the opener last year, then never looked any good the rest of year.  Purdue started out 2-0,  then never won again.  Both teams were saved in a way by COVID outbreaks that forced them to cancel their last couple games
