Ohio State is coming off of their second shutout win over Rutgers in as many years, and they finally made some headway in the rankings. With several top-ranked teams ending up with a loss in Week 5, the Buckeyes had some wiggle room to get back into the top-10 of the AP Poll, at No. 10.
Penn State kept the top spot for any Big Ten team at No. 4 with a win over Indiana — Saquon Barkley is like the Superman of college football. Michigan moved up to No. 7 following their early bye week, and Wisconsin also moved up one to No. 9 after a close first half against Northwestern.
