Week 13 Power Rankings
« on: November 27, 2017, 07:22:28 AM »
We have now seen every team's full body of work, except for Wisc vs. OSU, and I feel I finally have enough evidence to make some power rankings with some confidence

1.  Wisc
I could be wromg, but Wisconsin just seems superior to any other team.   An extremely strong defense that makes up for an average offense.

2. PSU
Only 2 losses are 2 close losses on the road to OSU and MSU.  Had another close game in Iowa City,  but strong performances in all other Big Ten games.

3.  OSU
Maybe most talented team but seems to self destruct about once every 5 games.   Blowout loss to Iowa I believe exposed some issues that can't be ignored.

4.  MSU
Close wins vs PSU,  Iowa, Mich.  Close loss to NW.  Blowout loss to OSU.

5.  NW
This team now seems to be legit which was not always clear.

6.  Iowa
The big difference between Iowa and Michigan is Iowa beat OSU and Michigan beat Purdue.  Beating OSU is more impressive

7.  Mich
No impressive victories.  Best win is against Purdue

8.  Purdue
Strong finish,  but some bad losses earlier

9.  Indy
Not quite good enough for a bowl

10.  Neb
Feel like all teams from 10 to 13 just fell apart and gave up in their last 2 games,  so this ranking is based more on what they did earlier

11.  Rut
Some surprise victories but not a strong finish.

12.  Minn
At least they have that big victory over Neb.

13.  MD
Just awful down the stretch.

14.  ILL
Just awful all year.

  • Penn State:  In my opinion this is the second consecutive year in which the B1G's best team is not playing in the B1GCG.  Last year I thought the Buckeyes were the best but they lost close in Happy Valley.  This year I think the Nittany Lions are the best but the lost close in both Columbus and East Lansing.  Road games are hard and Penn State had four of them against top-7 opponents (tOSU, MSU, NU, IA).  They managed 2-2 which is vastly better than any other team.  
  • Wisconsin:  I'm going with the Badgers here because they haven't shown a really bad side.  
  • Ohio State:  If you ignore the debacle in Iowa City then the Buckeyes would be a clear #1.  I just can't do that yet, but if the Buckeyes look strong in Indianapolis they will obviously move to at least #2.  
  • Michigan State:  The Spartans had a debacle of their own but they are still a strong team.  
  • Northwestern:  Another year of starting weak and finishing strong.  
  • Michigan:  0-4 against the top-7 hurts them but at least they were 5-0 against the bottom-7.  
  • Iowa:  Great games against Ohio State and Nebraska but other than that not so good.  
  • Purdue:  I realize that they beat Iowa but they also lost to Rutgers and Nebraska.  
  • Nebraska:  Welcome home Scott Frost!
  • Maryland:  What could have been.  
  • Indiana:  Tough schedule but they still should have made a bowl.  
  • Rutgers:  Great effort by the Scarlet Knights.  
  • Minnesota:  One great game (UNL) does not erase the rest of the season.  
  • Illinois:  Ouch.

JWilly, I'm assuming that you meant RU #11 and ILL #14?

Correct. Illinois has been so bad I just thought I'd skip them entirely maybe.
