1) Wisconsin - B1G's playoff pony to bet on
2) Ohio State - probably would love to have the Iowa game back
3) Penn State - the Saquon-for-Heisman talk has quieted down some, but still a strong team
4) Michigan State - a quietly solid season
5) Northwestern - gets better as the season goes on
6) Michigan - the offense needs some major work
7) Iowa - See Michigan.  Also, needs a punter.
8) Purdue - flat-out whooped Iowa, and about to face IU for a bowl bid
9) Indiana - also has a bowl bid on the line
10) Maryland - I have no idea what to make of this team
11) Minnesota - needs to beat Wisconsin to go to a bowl game.  Probably not going to happen this year
12) Nebraska - Riley's done, but would love to send him out on a high note
13) Rutgers - there's some fight in this team at least
14) Illinois - not sure if Lovie gets another year or not

Looking at the top-3 and looking forward to next week:

If Wisconsin (@MN) or Penn State (@UMD) were to lose, those would be MAJOR upsets.  Barring that, the main thing I look at when trying to rank the top-3 is their games against top-7 opposition:
Rank.123
.TeamUWtOSUPSU
1UWn/amissmiss
2tOSUmissn/aL by 1, A
3PSUmissW by 1, Hn/a
4MSUmissW by 45, HL by 3, A
5NUW by 9, HmissW by 24, A
6MW by 14, H11/25, AW by 29, H
7IowaW by 24, HL by 31, AW by 2, A

Wisconsin has three such games and they are 3-0 but all three were at home.  Additionally, they didn't look nearly as good as Penn State against either Northwestern or Michigan.  

Penn State has five such games and they are 3-2 including 2-2 on the road and 1-0 at home.  

Ohio State has three such games and they are 2-1 including 2-0 at home and 0-1 on the road.  

I currently have the teams ranked as:
  • Penn State
  • Wisconsin
  • Ohio State

Barring a major upset of either Wisconsin or Penn State or an Ohio State blowout of Michigan I don't think there will be any reason to change that next week.
