ESPN’s FPI updates odds to win B1G following Week 5
The B1G race continues to shape up into an exciting one after Week 5.
Ohio State has understandably stolen headlines after another dominant performance to start the season with this one coming on the road in Lincoln. But the B1G is far from a one-horse conference.
Penn State remains undefeated after a drubbing of Maryland, Wisconsin is always a threat with a tough defense and Jonathan Taylor, and Iowa and Michigan State have strong defenses that can pose a problem for anyone. Even Michigan could figure things out and make life difficult for a team with the talent on its roster.

Heading into Week 6, the Buckeyes will be the favorites until someone is able to rattle Justin Fields and the offense or put up any sort of offensive attack against their defense. With that being said, here is how ESPN’s FPI has listed the odds to win the B1G following Week 5:
- Ohio State – 64.2%
- Wisconsin – 17.2%
- Penn State – 11.5%
- Iowa – 4.0%
- Michigan State – 1.6%
