Big Ten Powah Rankings

BSD is back with the Big Ten Power Rankings after sitting out last week. It's been an interesting couple of weeks to say the least. Who would have guessed at this point in the season that Ohio State would be riding a four game losing streak and Penn State would be on a winning streak?
