2023 Big Ten Football Power Rankings following Week 1

Big Ten Football is officially back and Week 1 is in the books.

There were three conference matchups and only one team lost to a non-conference opponent. Not a great look for Purdue. Along with the Boilers, there were some uninspiring performances across the board.

Below, check out how the power rankings look following one week of action.

NCAA Football: Northwestern at Rutgers

14. Northwestern

Week 1: L, 24-7 at Rutgers

Previously: 14

It’s going to be a long year for Northwestern. It took all four quarters and a late penalty for the Wildcats to get on the board on Sunday against Rutgers.
