In addition to Northwestern's win over Stanford, there was plenty of excitement in the Big Ten, including an upset or two.
Even though a bunch of teams played games on Thursday and Friday (and will on Sunday and Monday), yesterday was the true opening day for the 2015 college football season. Nine Big Ten teams were in action on Saturday, while two played on Thursday, one on Friday and one each will play today and tomorrow.
There were a fair share of close games, blowouts and even upsets among the 12 games Big Ten teams have played in already in 2015.
