The B1G suffered a rash of injuries on Saturday, some leading teams to down-to-the-wire finals, and others leading to blowouts.

After week 6, there were also shakeups in the Power Rankings by 247 Sports.

Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State all kept their No. 1,2 and 3 rankings respectfully, while a nail-biter of a win against Maryland had Purdue clawing their way into the No. 4 spot. Defeating Iowa 9-6 in a slugfest in Memorial Stadium on Saturday, the Illini also moved up a spot to No. 5 on the list.

Slipping in the rankings this week were Minnesota, Iowa and Michigan State. The Golden Gophers were off this past week after suffering a homecoming loss to Purdue without Mohamed Ibrahim. Iowa lost to Illinois a miserable slugfest that ended in a score of 6-9, while the Spartans felt the wrath of Ohio State in East Lansing.
