The very top of the Big Ten looks to be very strong once again. Ohio State is ranked No. 1 in the country, with two other programs in the top seven—No. 3 Oregon and No. 7 Indiana—set to face off at Autzen Stadium on Saturday.
Beyond the Buckeyes, Ducks and Hoosiers, it is unclear whether the Big Ten has another true national championship contender. No. 15 Michigan is rounding into form and could play its way into the College Football Playoff, but they didn't look to be on the same level as one of the many contenders in the SEC: Oklahoma. No. 17 Illinois got absolutely drubbed by Indiana earlier in the year, 63–10.
