ESPN has released its latest power rankings after the first weekend in November came to an end.

It’s no surprise that the top five spots are nearly identical to the College Football Playoff rankings. While Georgia and Alabama have been swapped in the power rankings, the other three teams have fallen in the exact same order.

And, no shocker here either, no B1G team cracked the top five.

All five teams are coming off wins on Saturday, while teams previously in the conversation — Ohio State and Penn State — were knocked down a few notches after suffering losses.

Wisconsin and Michigan State were the only two ranked teams to come away with a victory. Neither earned a mention in the top five. The Badgers are really the only team that could make a case, sitting at a perfect 9-0 on the season.

Now, with everyone else in the conference having two losses, Wisconsin is the B1G’s only hope to reach the College Football Playoff.
