Rivalry Weekend in Big Ten Overflowing with Drama

Rivalry weekend couldn't be more intriguing for college football's best conference in 2016.

Five Big Ten teams—led by heavyweights Michigan and Ohio State—are in contention for a division crown with one game left to play.

And even better for the conference, four programs remain in the chase for the College Football Playoff. Not only will their games decide East and West Divisions, the results will have an enormous impact on the national picture.

The Big Ten will send one team to the CFP, but the upcoming slate will determine whether the conference has a legitimate chance for two representatives.
