What a weekend.
If the first month of the college football season weren’t chaotic enough for you, then Week 5 had all the drama you crave. Nine ranked teams fell over the weekend, causing some major changes in this week’s Top 25.
Struggles from ranked teams weren’t a problem in the B1G. All five of the conference’s ranked teams were victorious over the weekend with Iowa, Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan all posting wins.
