sgtshenanigans	1	One of the few hard rules that I have is that the champ is the champ until they are beaten. A lopsided win against Rutgers keeps them at one. Some interesting challenges coming up with Nebraska and Ohio State in the coming weeks.

Maladroit44	2	A lot of how you feel about this team depends on how you feel about Northwestern, and vice versa. I'm growing more confident that NW is actually just pretty damn good, and Indiana is still great. A trip to Nebraska this week, followed by a home date with Ohio State the week after, will tell us a whole lot more about the Hoosiers, though.

Doogitywoogity	7	Arguably the biggest news for Indiana wasn’t them beating Rutgers. But Northwestern beating Penn State by a lot. I still don’t think it screams contender at this point to have played NW so close, but it certainly doesn’t look as bad. Nebraska will actually be a decent test, I think they’re a good squad though quite flawed, I’ll be looking for Indiana to take advantage of that or if they keep them close like NW.

DarthYoda2594	8	None of the top 8 moved, not because I felt like keeping them where they were but honestly I think the performances were almost exactly in line with where I already had them ranked. Maybe Notre Dame could be below Georgia, but I feel like that Wisconsin win keeps getting stronger.

AoA_nB1	7	Longest win streak in the nation, defending national champions, one of the best coaches and still nobody believes in the Hoosiers (i’m probably with them). A lot will be learned about Indiana next week against OSU.
