The Big Ten season is heading to its conclusion, with the top teams holding serve.

All the favorites this past weekend won, so there are no changes in the power rankings this week.  This past weekend sets up an exciting last weekend of the regular season.

In the Big Ten East, Michigan travels to Ohio State.  If Michigan wins, they are headed to Indianapolis.  If Ohio State wins, they will need Penn State to fall to Michigan State to win the East, otherwise the Lions will.

In the Big Ten West, it’s even easier.  Wisconsin wins and they are in the Big Ten Championship game.  However if they lose, that opens the door for Nebraska, should they beat Iowa.

There are also a few other teams looking to become bowl eligible in the final weekend.
