This week in the power rankings: Is the Big Ten in rare territory with three undefeated teams heading into November? Do Penn State and Minnesota have actual offenses now? Just how good are the two Big Ten teams from the state of Illinois? Just how bad is Indiana's defense? And much more!
Numerically, following week 9, comes week 10. The significance of week 10 does not come from the number 10 alone, but more from the fact that there are only 13-15 weeks of regular season football depending on a team's schedule. Having only 3-5 weeks left for each team means we are coming down the home stretch here.
