Ohio State - Obviously
Penn State - Next weekend's game will be interesting
Minnesota - Now we'll find out how good they are
Michigan - Didn't play great today but still won convincingly
Wisconsin - Should win the next 3 weeks before they play for The Axe.
Iowa - Can they beat Wisconsin or Minnesota? I'm skeptical
Michigan State - I'll be intrigued to see how they do against Illinois....
Indiana - Have benefitted greatly from a weak schedule. We'll see how they finish....
Illinois - Not great, but the best of the rest
Purdue - Give them credit for not quitting on their season
Nebraska - Just a trainwreck now
Maryland - Can't even brag about that Syracuse win at this point
Northwestern - From bad to worse. At least they still have UMass on their schedule.
Rutgers - Still the worst
“When your team is winning, be ready to be tough, because winning can make you soft. On the other hand, when your team is losing, stick by them. Keep believing”

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


Moved Northwestern down one. Moved Nebraska down two spots. Moved Indiana up above MSU.

I have a hard time squaring Indiana's spot placed below MSU. MSU defeated Indiana; but MSU is 4-4 whereas Indiana is 7-2.  I expect Indiana to finish 8-4. I expect MSU to finish either 6-6, or 7-5. If MSU defeats Illinois next week, I might advance them up.

I am too, but Iowa will likely defeat one of these teams; more likely to beat Minnesota than Wisconsin. 

I am of the belief the BTW comes down to the Minnesota-Wisconsin game, if Iowa tags Minnesota with a loss. Who doesn't want to see a repeat of Ohio State - Wisconsin? Me!

Iowa's defense will keep it in every game and give Iowa a chance to win each game.  Iowa's offense will keep their opponent in every game and give the other team a chance.

Most likely, Iowa will finish 2-2 against Wiscy, Minny, ILL and Neb.  But it's not certain who the 2 wins and 2 losses will come against.

Indiana is quietly having a good year at 7-2 (3-2) and I know the boom is about to fall, but they have a very good shot at 8-4.

Minnesota has a decent shot at 10-2, which would be a good year also and a possible NY6 bowl game, or very good other bowl game.  They do face three ranked teams out of the last 4, so we'll find out if they are an illusion quickly.

1. OSU: No change at the top, this team gets Maryland and Rutgers before finishing with Penn State and Michigan.  Not a lot of question marks other than can they continue to sustain the success they've had.

2. PSU: Going on the road for a showdown in Minnesota.  Don't often hear that, but I'm looking forward to it.  It's a tough stretch with the Gophs, then Hoosiers, then OSU before finishing the season with Rutgers.

3. Wisconsin: Looking to find the form that had them a playoff contender, and they welcome Iowa this week.

4. Michigan: Not the dominant effort I expected, but all's well that ends well.  I said in another thread it's tough to trust this team.  As soon as you feel confident about them the bottom falls out.  Maybe constantly looking shaky is the key to their success.

5. Minnesota: Finally playing a good team and I'm here to see what happens.  

6. Iowa: Travels to Wisconsin with a shot to get back in this thing.

7. Indiana: Might get a few top 25 votes?

8. Michigan State: Welcome Illinois to see if Sparty can put something together to end the season.

9. Illinois: Lovie on a roll.

10. Purdue: Nice win overcoming all their injuries.

11. Nebraska: Disappointment

12. Maryland: Didn't look horrible against Michigan, but also not good.

13. Northwestern: What a lost season

14. Rutgers: Nope

1 Buckeyes
2 Nittany Lions
3 Badgers
4 Wolverines
5 Hawkeyes
6 Golden Gophers
7 Spartans
8 Hoosiers
9 Fighting Illini
10 Boiler Makers
11 Corn Huskers
12 Terrapins
13 Scarlet Knights
14 Wildcats

Last week's rankings, only with some minor shuffling with regards to Illinois, Nebraska and Purdue. All three have gone 1-1 vs each other, rock paper scissors style, so I wrote off the Nebraska win over Illinois as "ancient history" as the last two weeks have seen Illinois blow out Purdue, who went onto beat Nebraska.

I suspect a bit of a shakeup this time next week.  Gophs and Hawks both get a chance to make a move, while Penn State and Wisconsin look to hold  serve.

Frost is losing his team.  He won’t lose more than that this year, but there are some grumblings in Lincoln.
