B1G

5 B1G TEAMS, 8 BIG RECRUITS
Ohio State (2), Penn State (2), Wisconsin (2), Minnesota (1) and Rutgers (1) were the five teams to gain recruits this week. Not bad for being in a dead period.

MOVING ON UP
Minnesota, Northwestern, Rutgers and Indiana went up one spot in the rankings. 

 

Wrong Direction

The Badgers are moving in the wrong direction.

FREE FALLING
The good news for Wisconsin is that two players committed. The bad news for the Badgers is that the team's average comp. rating dropped 18 points. Nebraska and Penn State also lost comp. average points.

BUCKEYES BAG A FARRELL AND LITTLE BEAR
The Buckeyes didn't move up in the rankings, but they made the biggest gain going up from .926 to .930. The class of 2016 continues to get stronger with the additions of Nick Bosa and Luke Farrell.

Luke Farrell

Nick Bosa and Luke Farrell (above) committed to Ohio State on Thursday and Friday. Bosa (.995) and Farrell (.933) were the two highest rated recruits in the B1G last week.

 

TOTAL POINTS REVIEW

ON THE RISE
Ohio State (+1,937), Penn State (+1,733), Wisconsin (+1,662), Nebraska (+1,637) and Minnesota (+856) gained the most points this week. Surprisingly Ohio State and Penn State were the only team of the five listed above to move up in the rankings.
 

BIGGEST LOSERS
Four teams (Michigan State, Northwestern, Rutgers and Maryland) dropped a place in the Total Points Rankings. The only teams to lose points were Purdue (-27), Illinois (-7) and Maryland (-1).

 

Iowa

If Iowa gets two commitments this week the Hawkeyes could be on top of the B1G's Total Points Rankings.

DARK DAYS NEARING AN END?
Iowa is one or two recruits away from taking the top spot away from That Team. Michigan State and Ohio State are also within striking distance. I have a feeling That Team will not be on top of the Total Points Rankings by the start of the season.
