Illinois – 20
Indiana – 18
Iowa – 12
Michigan – 11
Michigan State – 6
Minnesota – 12
Nebraska – 7

Incredible. Just think, if Ohio State beats heated rival Michigan on Saturday, it would be its third straight 8-0 Big Ten campaign.

And just to cover my back, yes, Ohio State lost the 2013 Big Ten title game to Michigan State, the eventual Rose Bowl Game champion. That was a postseason game, which doesn't count toward Big Ten records.
