After my biggest debate compiling last week’s Big Ten Power Rankings was whether I should drop Penn State all the way to the bottom, this week’s toughest deliberation came at the top.
While Ohio State continued to take care of business in Week 6 with an 18-point win on the road over Illinois, Indiana also improved to 6-0 with a 30-20 road win over Oregon, legitimizing itself as a national championship contender while earning arguably the nation’s best victory so far this season. They’ve separated themselves from the pack as the two best teams in the Big Ten – if not the entire country – and both have a strong case for being the No.
