Results posted, votes through @fezzador .  

There was a lot of movement this week:
  • MSU was up two, passing Iowa and PSU.  
  • NU was up two, passing Iowa and PSU.  
  • PU was up three, passing PSU, IA, and UW.  
  • PSU was down three, passed by MSU, NU, and PU.  
  • UW was unchanged but passed Iowa and got passed by PU.  
  • Iowa was down four, passed by MSU, NU, PU, and UW.  
  • UNL was up one, passing UMD.  
  • UMD was down one, passed by UNL.  
  • IL was up two, passing MN and IU.  
  • MN was down one, passed by IL.  
  • IU was down one, passed by IL.  

Noncontiguous votes:
  • LittlePig and @MaximumSam voted tOSU #5 and #6 respectively, everyone else had the Buckeyes second or third.  
  • Fezz voted MSU #6, nobody else had them below #4.  
  • @ELA voted Iowa #2, nobody else had them above #7.  

The PU/MN game doesn't look as interesting now and Michigan/RU never did but the other 10 B1G teams all have games this weekend against teams that they are ranked at least relatively close to:
  • #1 Michigan at #14 Rutgers
  • #2 Ohio State at #3 Michigan State
  • #4 Northwestern at #8 Iowa
  • #5 Purdue at #12 Minnesota
  • #7 Wisconsin at #6 Penn State 
  • #11 Illinois at #9 Nebraska
  • #10 Maryland at #13 Indiana
This should be an exciting weekend especially when you consider that the better team is on the road for five of the seven games.  

M/RU:
Nothing interesting here, it is the B1G's undisputed best against the B1G's undisputed worst.  

tOSU/MSU:
At least for this week, this game will answer the question "who is the next best team after Michigan?" (at least unless MSU and NU both win).  

NU/IA:
For all practical purposes this is the last chance for any team not named Northwestern to win the B1G-W.  

PU/MN:
Purdue needs a win to stay on pace, MN needs a win to keep any remaining bowl hopes alive.  

UW/PSU:
This will likely be a big factor in bowl positioning.  

IL/UNL:
Which team can keep looking up?  

UMD/IU:
In theory this should be an easy win for Maryland but the Terps' next B1G road win will be their first since winning in Minneapolis in September of last year.

The Big Ten isn't what it used to be. It was difficult watching Northwestern go down to Notre Dame.

I added in @LetsGoPeay 's and @Hawkinole 's votes.  The only change is that IU is now slightly ahead of MN for 12/13.

MSU getting a sneaky boost from the season opening win over Utah State, which as of now I believe is the Big Ten's only OOC win over a ranked opponent?

Iowa State was not ranked at the time Iowa played them, but they are now. I don't know if that counts. I don't know if MSU over Utah State counts either. Both should in my opinion.

ranked opponents should only count if ranked in the final poll, but the committee can do whatever

Minnesota beat Fresno State and Purdue beat Boston College, too.

I was just referring to those computer rankings, so no BC.  But yeah, forgot about Minnesota over Fresno State.  In retrospect, that might wind up being the most head scratching non-conference win, perhaps Indiana over Virginia depending on where those teams wind up.
