Big Ten Power Rankings - Week 5

The top and bottom are pretty much set, but it’s the middle that doesn’t want to play by anyone’s rules.

As a reminder, this isn’t a ranking of teams based on record, or place in the polls, but rather my assessment of how the teams are playing at the time. If two teams met on a neutral field and played 100 times, a team that wins 51 times gets ranked ahead of the team that wins 49 times.

Let’s see what we got this week, shall we?

1. Ohio State

OSU walloped Nebraska 48-7, and could have scored more but pulled the starters after going up 38-0 at the half.
