No. 5 LSU might be the only team in the country that can say it has been as impressive as No. 2 Baylor. A fifth straight convincing win has the Tigers at their highest ranking since 2012, but they couldn’t be playing a more different style from that team.
In a season plagued with injuries, the Badgers seemingly suffered their worst loss with the announcement that highly touted starting junior running back Corey Clement would miss significant time after surgery to repair a lingering sports hernia injury. To compound the damage, redshirt freshman running back Taiwan Deal suffered an ankle injury in UW’s comeback win at Nebraska.
No. 17 Iowa made a statement Saturday afternoon when it rolled through No. 20 Northwestern by a score of 40-10, putting it in control of its own destiny in the Big Ten West.
Michigan State-Michigan. That is all.
While Corey Clement’s impending return is encouraging, it might not be best for himself nor the team.
While the Big Ten East continues to dazzle, as the Michigan-Michigan State matchup may go down as the best game in the entire FBS this year and Ohio State has finally found a way to maximize the Braxton Miller-Cardale Jones- J.T. Barrett triangle, Iowa has quietly established itself as the team to beat in the West.
Alex Erickson’s impressive campaign has been highlighted by 42 receptions for 549 yards.
1. Stave’s roller coaster ride
When people think of the Big Ten, the first image that comes to mind is usually three yards and a cloud of dust, a byproduct of ground-and-pound running offenses. However, throughout the NFL in any given week there are three to seven former Big Ten quarterbacks starting, ranging some of the best in the league (Tom Brady, Drew Brees) to the worst (Kirk Cousins, Brian Hoyer).
Defensive coordinator Dave Aranda self-admittedly has a difficult time talking about what his defense does well. Like most people who strive for continual improvement through intense intrinsic criticism, Aranda seems to be more at ease discussing what he can do better, rather than what he’s achieved. That notion spans the entirety of the defense, and it also applies to his evaluation of the individual cogs that make it run.
After a pair of close wins against Iowa and Nebraska, Wisconsin (2-1 Big Ten, 5-2 overall) was able to pull away late against Purdue, giving the Badgers some momentum moving into this week’s matchup against Illinois (1-1, 4-2), who is coming off a bye week.
Despite a bit of a resurgence under interim head coach Bill Cubit, Illinois still struggles to draw in fans.
Many of the Badger faithful expected Wisconsin (2-1 Big Ten, 5-2 overall) to roll over a weak Purdue team (0-3, 1-6). While it wasn’t as lopsided as expected in the beginning, UW defeated the Boilermakers by a respectable 24-7 score.
After their latest underwhelming victory, Michigan State has fallen from its perch in the Big Ten power rankings. A big week lies ahead for the conference, as four of the teams in this week’s power rankings square off against one another.
After a thrilling and much-needed win against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Badgers return home next week to face the Purdue Boilermakers. And while the Boilermakers are still the bottom of the Big Ten barrel, they are much improved from previous seasons.
Jordan Canzeri ranks third in the Big Ten in rushing yards per game (116.17) and second in touchdowns (9).
