The first week of the college football season is in the books, giving us a better idea of what to expect from Big Ten teams this year. 

The Big Ten slate was a good one this past week with two notable conference matchups taking place to start the season.

In addition to those two games, Ohio State had a huge win over fifth ranked Notre Dame and teams like Wisconsin and Michigan looked dominant. Overall, the Big Ten teams won every out of conference game played in Week One.

Plenty of teams look strong heading into Week Two, which will be an easier week for most Big Ten teams. The exception is Iowa, who has the yearly rivalry matchup with Iowa State this upcoming Saturday.

Lets’ take a look at the Big Ten power rankings following the first week of the season.
