The Coaches Poll doesn't mean anything now that the College Football Playoff Poll is released every Tuesday, but it can't hurt to get respect from several outlets, right?
Four Big Ten teams are ranked in the latest Coaches Poll, released Sunday, and Wisconsin, fresh off its 37-0 blowout at Rutgers, is back in the poll at No. 24.
Reigning Big Ten and Rose Bowl champ Michigan State continues to pace the Big Ten in the poll, although it dropped one spot, to No. 6 on its bye week.
Ohio State and Nebraska both moved up two spots, to No. 11 and No. 14, respectively.
The latest College Football Playoff Poll will come out Tuesday night.
See the full poll below.
