Big Ten Superlatives: Week 5

The first Saturday in October delivered with interesting storylines around the conference. Here are some things that caught our eye.

Best Win of the Week: Purdue

In the West, there were two intriguing intra-division games. We’ll address both right off the bat. Let’s give the best win to the Boilermakers. Purdue opened 1-2 with last second losses to both Penn State and Syracuse, who are a combined 10-0. The Boilermakers also dealt with an injury to start senior quarterback Aiden O’Connell. Well, AOC was back on Saturday, though he played rather pedestrian in the win.
