In Week 9 there were 10 of the Big Ten’s 14 teams in action. The closest game on the slate featured Ohio State and Penn State in the Big Noon Kickoff game of the week. It was close for the majority of the game before the Buckeyes’ onslaught of points in the fourth quarter.
The blowout of the week belongs to Minnesota, who blanked Rutgers 31-0 behind the performance of running back Mohamed Ibrahim. The average margin of victory this past Saturday for the winning teams was 20.6 points.
