Big Ten Power Football: Week 5 Power Rankings

6. Indiana

Week 5 result – 24-21 win over Michigan State

How about Indiana! This team proves everyone wrong week after week, beating Michigan State in Week 5 24-21.

The Hoosiers are the biggest surprise of the Big Ten so far. Their loss to Wake Forest last week has almost become irrelevant because of how well they bounced back. It may have been a fluke game, and yes, Michigan State is on a downslide. But take this game as the victory it is. Indiana took out a top five Big Ten team and are making their claim for a potential conference championship run.

It’s early, but if there were winners and losers of opening week of Big Ten play, Indiana would be the ultimate winner.
