GRR: Big 10 Conference
The Big Ten Universities Conference is quickly becoming a three-horse race to the top, with a fourth horse chugging along trying to catch up.
Indiana and Ohio State remained undefeated after big victories Saturday, while Wisconsin was idle and stayed at 2-0, Michigan improved to 2-1 with a blowout victory over Minnesota.
Indiana and Michigan were both undefeated as they entered last weekend’s match, and had enjoyed some good warm-up matches to prepare for the competitiveness of the Big Ten. Both teams are working with large pockets of young, developing players, which bodes well for the future, but adds some stress to the present.
Ohio State put Purdue to the sword in impressive fashion Saturday in Big Ten action, beating the Boilermakers 78-7.
JoJo Eramo continued his torrid scoring pace, scoring the first try of the day, and adding four more, including three in a row late in the second half.
Two very different stories last weekend from Michigan and Indiana as the two Big Ten teams prepare to face off this coming Saturday.
Indiana slammed Purdue 92-0, showcasing once again their experienced and athletic backline and ability to put the boot on the neck and keep it there. Meanwhile, Michigan had to work for it to beat Michigan State 22-14.
In the Big Ten, it’s Penn State and everyone else, but that race for second-best is always a good one. Indiana has been the traditional runner-up, but after a couple big losses during the friendly season, the competition for #2 might be closer than years previous.
