Big Ten power rankings: Groundhog Day

The Big Ten has changed a lot in the past decade, yet the narratives have mostly remained the same. And everything seemed awfully familiar in the conference last Saturday:

  • Indiana played Ohio State close for a while... again.
  • Northwestern upset Sparty... again.
  • Iowa won the Floyd of Rosedale... again.
  • Wisconsin ran all over Nebraska... again.
  • Michigan blew out an inferior opponent at the Big House... again.
  • Rutger lost... again.

Here are my post-week 6 power rankings:

14. Rutger (1-5)

If the Scarlet Knights can’t get a win against Maryland or Northwestern in the next couple weeks, a 1-11 finish is very likely.
