Big Ten Power Rankings After Week 7
« on: October 15, 2023, 06:20:30 AM »
1.  Penn St. -  PSU and Mich are both so dominating right now,  the only way to settle this is on the field, as it should be.  But first PSU has to prove it can beat Ohio St.

2.  Mich - complete domination over 4 straight Big Ten opponents.

3.  Ohio St -  still undefeated but OSU has looked vulnerable.  But now OSU gets its chance to prove itself against PSU.

Umm...

4.  Iowa -  Iowa beat Wisc.

5.  Wisc -  Wisc beat Rutgers.

6.  Rut - Rutgers beat NW

7.  NW. -  NW beat Minn

8.  Minn - Minn beat Neb

9.  Neb. - Neb beat ILL

10.  PUR. -  Purdue beat ILL

11.  ILL - ILL beat MD

12. MD - MD beat  MSU and Ind.

13.  MSU - MSU has beat nobody

14.  Ind -  Ind has beat nobody.

I may revisit UW's ranking here, once we know what's happening with the QB1. The outlook is not good right now.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

This is about where I am.  The gap between Michigan and OSU/PSU is large.  But, I think that’s true of Michigan and any other team in the land. 
 I think OSU/ PSU can hang with ANY other team out there.

1. Michigan - rounding into form on both sides of the ball. they may just have the best front 7 in CFB right now with the depth they have at DT, EDGE, and ILB + they also have the best CB in the entire sport in Will Johnson and a ridiculous safety room with the emergence of RS Frosh Keon Sabb + SS Makari Paige and the return of FS Rod Moore to health. They have 3 really good future NFL draft picks at safety right now, most college football teams don't even have 1. 
2. Ohio State - McCord is growing up, OL needs to get better. D is salty.
3. Penn State - still not sure they are ready to usurp the Big 2. OL play meh and they lack ability to create explosive plays on offense and WR looks to be a concern. D is excellent.

these are the cream of the crop in the B1G, one for sure will win this conference and be a playoff team

BIG GAP between these 3 and rest of the league

4. Iowa

will be the sacrificial lamb from the West for slaughter in the B1G CCG. Little Gap between Iowa and the next tier

5. Wisconsin
6. Maryland
7. Rutgers

3 solid not great teams, will all go bowling

GAP

8. Purdue
9. Minnesota
10. Nebraska
11. Michigan State
12. Illinois
13. Indiana
14. Northwestern


these teams all go from kinda sucks to really really suck

Is this Iowa team the worst 6-1 P5 team ever?
Their avg score is 21-15.  
Their only challenging opponent was a 31-0 loss.
.
When your top 6 pass-catchers include 3 TEs and a RB, your offense is broken.

yeah, I think UGA is right there with Michigan. To me they are the class of CFB right now. But OSU/PSU/Oklahoma/TX/FSU are right there in the ballpark.
