Hey, Nebraska, welcome to the Big Ten (which now has 12 teams).

Hey, Nebraska, welcome to the Big Ten (which now has 12 teams).

Wisconsin absolutely crushed the #8 Huskers.

There was a real shake-out in the center of the top 25. Teams numbered 8, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 20 all lost. No team rated from 8-16 won except when they faced one another (#13 beat #11, and #9 Oregon had the week off). Oregon will move up to #8. I guess #13 Clemson will move up to #9 with a convincing win over #11 Va Tech.

But who will be #10?

#19 Michigan will move up many places by grinding out a 58-0 victory while seven teams above them lost. They might crawl into the top ten. #18 Arkansas beat the #14 Aggies, and #17 Texas won big over previously undefeated Iowa State, so those two teams also have a shot at filling the ten hole. West Virginia will also gain back several places with a big rebound victory, but although their only loss was to LSU, I still don't think they'll be higher than #13.
