This week marks the last week where a non-conference game will be played by a Big Ten team. Your Penn State Nittany Lions will welcome the Massachusetts Minutemen to Happy Valley, in what should be the easiest game coming out of a bye week for James Franklin at Penn State. Given how the team has performed out of a bye historically, scheduling this game for this slot was nothing short of genius.
Elsewhere in the Big Ten, Iowa and Wisconsin play in the de facto Big Ten West title game, and Maryland tries to prove that they can be October Maryland too!
