B1G tracking for two of the four playoff berths. But competitive showdowns are few and far between in what has been a plodding first two months.
This week’s two major polls say Michigan and Ohio State are the nation’s second and third best teams, right after Georgia. When the first official College Football Playoff rankings come out on Tuesday, both will be right in the thick of the chase for the Final-Four slots.At this point, I don’t get too excited about this stuff. It’s fun for fans to ponder..
Ohio State, at least, has smash-mouth quality wins at Notre Dame and against Penn State. Even Saturday’s grinding 24-10 win at Wisconsin—the injury-riddled Badgers were only down 17-10 late in the game—was against a better opponent than anyone Michigan has played. So. . . I have no problem with the rest of the college-football-watching world marveling at how good Michigan and Ohio State are. They have played exceptional football so far. And they will be interesting to watch as the season reaches a crescendo.
Iowa’s offense is so lame that it has become a laughingstock—and deservedly so. The nepotism of Kirk Ferentz keeping his son, Brian, as offensive coordinator is reaching new levels of concern. At 2-3, Northwestern is only one game behind the four Big Ten West co-leaders. Traditional ``powers’’ Wisconsin and Iowa are joined by Minnesota and Nebraska.
All of that said, despite a full slate of seven Big Ten games this Saturday, only hardcore fans will find much of interest in games where they don’t have an alma mater.
