After a weekend full of blowouts, Big Ten football is looking more top-heavy than ever. See who is at the top in this week’s power rankings.
It is pretty safe to say that Big Ten football is as top-heavy as ever.
While the top three teams can each make a case for being at the top of our power rankings, the bottom four or five could make an argument for No. 14. Then the middle of the conference, which would seem to be the most competitive, appears to range from mediocre to average..at best.
Week 5 saw this monumental gap as blow outs were handed out by two of the top three teams, while the other used their defense to show their dominance. For the rest of the conference, it’s going to be all about who can scrape off enough wins to make the postseason.
While some teams such as Penn State and Ohio State look to improve their momentum, almost the rest of the Big Ten is looking for big wins to kick their team into high gear as we get near the halfway point of the season.
