The Big Ten football power rankings saw a pretty massive shakeup after a wild weekend of college football.

To some degree, there were some teams that I had been overlooking because of what they had been before. There were also some teams I was likely over ranking because of what they had been before.

It’s a safe bet there will be even more shakeups in the coming weeks at teams at the top and teams at the bottom of this week’s Big Ten football power rankings continue to square off against one another.

One thing we can say with certainty is there may not be a more disappointing team in the conference than Michigan State. There seems to be something seriously wrong in East Lansing. Mark Dantonio appears to be on the verge of having his worst season for the Spartans if he doesn’t figure out a way to turn the team around.

Speaking of turnaround, the Maryland Terapins now officially have more wins, after five weeks of the college football season, than they did all of last year. Yes their 4-0 start is largely thanks to wins over bad teams, but they’re taking down those bad teams with style, it’s not like they’re squeaking by.

Without further ado, check out this week’s Big Ten football power rankings and take not of some massive changes.
