Penn State’s first loss of the season caused them to predictably fall in the rankings.
The Nittany Lions dropped to sixth in the Associated Press and seventh in the Coaches Poll. Big Ten teams in the rankings include top-ranked Oregon, Ohio State, who climbed to the third spot in both polls, and Indiana, who is ranked 8th in the AP and 10th in the Coaches, as well as being 9-0 for the first time in school history. Penn State welcomes Washington next weekend for the annual Whiteout game, which will be seen exclusively on Peacock at 8 PM.
