2020 might not be the best year when it comes to judging what Big Ten teams will be in 2021.

Though Ohio State stayed true by being an elite team and making it to the national championship game, we saw Penn State falter early and often while Michigan didn’t look competitive outside of its season opener. Wisconsin started strong but fell off as games went on while Indiana beat every Big Ten team it faced other than the Buckeyes.

So, who is trending up and trending down? We tried our hand at an offseason power ranking of all 14 teams in the conference, but it should be noted that it’s just where teams stand in our eyes right now — there’s a lot of room for movement either way even once fall camp arrives.

That said, in order from the bottom to the top, here’s where the Big Ten stands as of now.
