Defending national champ Ohio State remains No. 1 in both polls, garnering 59 of 61 first-place votes in the AP and 62 of 63 in the Coaches. Michigan State, No. 4 in both polls after its big win vs. Oregon, is receiving the final two AP first-place votes.

The biggest Big Ten development, however, might be 2-0 Northwestern debuting in the polls. The Wildcats, fresh off a 41-0 route of Eastern Illinois, come in at No. 23 (AP) and No. 24 (Coaches), while Wisconsin is the opposite, No. 23 (Coaches) and No. 24 (AP).
