East Division

1. Michigan State 7-1 (4-0)It’s show time in East Lansing, as the Spartans will host the Buckeyes, in a rematch of last year’s Big Ten Championship game.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th– vs. Ohio State- Will the Spartans be rusty or rested coming off an open date to face the Buckeyes?

2. Ohio State 7-1 (4-0)The Buckeyes flexed their muscles against lowly Illinois. J.T. Barrett looked healthy and the Buckeyes are red hot heading into their most important game of the year.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th at Michigan State- Urban Meyer and Ohio State are out for revenge after MSU derailed the Buckeye’s quest for a national title in 2013.

3. Maryland 6-3 (3-2)Maryland tried to send a message to Penn State that this is a rivalry by not shaking hands pregame. However the better message was the win they took back to College Park.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th– OPEN

4. Penn State 4-4 (1-4)Penn State’s in a rut as their losing skid has hit four games, but going to Indiana can be an elixir.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th at Indiana- The Lions have one of the best defenses in the country. The Hoosiers have one of the worst offenses. Penn State should roll.

5. Rutgers 5-4 (1-4)Well that was a fun three game stretch right Rutgers? The Knights were shutout at home against Wisconsin.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th– OPEN

6. Michigan 4-5 (2-3)Indiana is a good medicine for a struggling team. Michigan is two wins from a bowl.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th– at Northwestern- Could this be win number 5 for the Maize and Blue? Probably, as the ‘Cats are in a freefall.

7. Indiana 3-5 (0-4)Indiana is staring 3-9 in the face. The offense looked worse than ever last week.

Coming Up: Nov.8th vs. Penn State- The Hoosiers are 1-16 against Penn State, it will be 1-17 after this week.

West Division

1. Nebraska 8-1 (4-1)Nebraska beat Purdue handely, but how will Ameer Abdullah’s knee hold up moving forward?

2. Wisconsin 6-2 (3-1)Wisconsin is starting to hit their stride at the perfect time to make a run at the West.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th at Purdue- The Badgers should pick up their seventh win of the year.

3. Iowa 6-2 (3-1)– Iowa got off to a fast start last weekend and buried Northwestern.

Coming Up: Nov.8th at Minnesota- The Floyd of Rosedale game is always a fun matchup. Iowa will look to take the bacon and stay in play for a division title.

4. Minnesota 6-2 (3-1)Did the open date help them get over the loss at Illinois? Gopher fans must hope so.

Coming Up: Nov.8th– vs. Iowa- The winner of this game still has a shot at the division. The loser is out.

5. Northwestern 3-5 (2-3)A 48-7 drubbing is not what Northwestern needed. Is the Pat Fitzgerald magic gone?

Coming Up: Nov.8th vs. Michigan- Two bad teams in what should be an entertaining game. I just don’t see the Wildcats winning this one.

6. Purdue 3-6 (1-4)Purdue got bad news when receiver Danny Anthrop was ruled out for the year. The Boilers will need to win out to get that sixth win.

Coming Up: Nov. 8th– vs. Wisconsin- The bowl dreams die here.

7. Illinois 4-5 (1-4)It is just a matter of time before Tim Beckman is dismissed.
