Big Ten Football: Week 10 Power Rankings

2. Ohio State

Week 10 result – 62-3 win over Nebraska

Wow, did Ohio State come back strong. This team looked like the National Championship favorites everyone was expecting all season. Beating Nebraska by 59 was more than just an upset. It was a statement that Ohio State may have lost, but they haven’t fallen off.

The Buckeyes have two games remaining before their matchup with Michigan. To keep it simple, if Ohio State wins out the rest of the season, they will be in the top four. Even if they aren’t able to play in the Big Ten Championship, they will have more than enough credentials to make the College Football Playoff.

Best case scenario, the College Football Playoff committee finds a way to keep more than one Big Ten school in the top four. Whether it’s Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, or Wisconsin, seeing two Big Ten teams face off for a chance at the National Championship will be the game of the season.
