Big Ten Football Power Rankings: Week Nine

Good day!

I’m feeling particularly chipper this Monday morning because I, a Minnesota native and Iowa graduate, had the most stress-free October weekend I can remember in quite some time. I’m very glad the parents for the Hawkeyes and Vikings shared calendars amongst themselves and mutually agreed to take a vacation to the Wisconsin Dells together.

While this weekend didn’t offer a marquee matchup between conference brethren, we still got to stick our heads through the black holes that occupy the upper midwest, through Appalachia.

This past weekend was straight heat, where if you throwaway one bastard child of an outlier, you had an average margin of victory of around three touchdowns in the other four games, which is unfortunate, because I’m not sure if Iowa will score three touchdowns in total the rest of the year.
