Well, I’d like to be doing this post under different circumstances but unfortunately, I am not.
Big ten teams that made this week's polls include Ohio State at #3, Michigan at #4, Penn State at #11, and Minnesota at #23. There is a lot of football left to be played, but I think that we can all agree that Ohio State is going to be virtually untouchable for most of the Big Ten season if they play like they did last Saturday. Michigan may be the only team with a shot at knocking them off later on this season and even that feels like a long shot.
Some other notable changes in the polls include Tennessee moving into the Top 10 after beating Florida. Arkansas fell back to #20 after losing to Texas A&M. And Oklahoma dropped to #18 after losing to unranked Kansas State at home. Also, where is Kansas? Are they real or am I missing something?
