This week’s Big Ten contests produced a lot of expected results, but also some burger-inspired nicknames, unusual punting scenarios and false touchdown attributions. Let’s take a look at the power rankings after the conference’s third set of games:
14. Illinois (0-3)
Last ranking: 14
Last result: L vs Minnesota (41-14)
Next: vs Iowa
In the battle of last week’s two worst-ranked teams, Illinois emerged the loser, and it wasn’t particularly close. As a result, Lovie Smith finds him even more decidedly in last place this week.
