Ohio State, Iowa host huge Big Ten games this weekend
The Buckeyes maintained their #9 ranking with their thrashing of Indiana on Saturday night. Ohio State dominated the game on the ground and on the defensive side of the ball. The Buckeyes will host undefeated Wisconsin on October 10th. Iowa escaped with a 24-21 victory over lowly Arkansas State, but the #12 Hawkeyes will host a dangerous Michigan team led by freshmen QB sensation Tate Forcier. Penn State moved up three spots to #14 with their 35-17 victory at Illinois. The Nittany Lions will step out of the conference when they host Eastern Illinois on October 10th. The Michigan Wolverines dropped out of the top 25 with their overtime loss to Michigan State in East Lansing, but a win over Iowa will catapult the Wolverines back into the top 25. Wisconsin is on the cusp of the top 25 at #26 in the voting, but a victory in Columbus would definitely move the Badgers into the poll. In all, 7 Big Ten teams are listed in the latest of the 2009 bowl projections.
