Big Ten Conference teams have taken over the top of the AP Top 25 poll.
COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Big Ten West will no longer exist after this season, but the future Big Ten teams out west are showing how they can add national value to the league.How does that compare to the future SEC? Other than No. 1 Georgia and No. 3 Texas, no other current or pending teams from that league are in the top 10. So through the first third of the season, that means the Big Ten could potentially contend to make up half the field in a 12-team playoff.
Those future Big Ten schools making their push into the top 10 feature the reigning Heisman Trophy winner , a new contender in Washington quarterback Michael Penix and the Ducks team that recently upended the Colorado hype train. Even without the west coast additions, this is setting up as a potentially crucial opportunity for the Big Ten. It put two teams in the playoff last season to the SEC’s one. Between OSU, Michigan and Penn State, it has a decent shot at repeating that feat if the right combination of victories allows the East runner-up to slip in.
