After Week 9 the rankings are starting to stabilize a bit. Top teams are defeating top teams, and rising to the top. And the bottom continues to drop out for some other teams. Here is how I rank the teams after Week 9.

Big Ten East

#1 Michigan Wolverines (LW #1)

The Spartans made this a tougher game than many may have thought, but Michigan did what they needed to do to keep the season ending showdown against the Buckeyes relevant. Maryland comes to the Big House this week. This is gonna get ugly.

#2 Ohio State Buckeyes (LW#2)

Northwestern almost came into the shoe and upset the Buckeyes.
