With no Badgers Football this weekend, many may be looking around the Big Ten for games to watch for this upcoming weekend. Even though much of the news surrounding the Big Ten these days is about Wisconsin and its developing situation with COVID-19, there are some very exciting headlines on the field heading into week two.

The big matchup this weekend will be on Saturday night where the 18th-ranked Penn State Nittany Lions will host the third-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes at Beaver Stadium. James Franklin and Penn State will be looking to keep their Big Ten title hopes alive after getting upset last weekend against the Indiana Hoosiers. While Justin Fields, Ryan Day, and the Buckeyes hope to continue past the Nittany Lions on their way to another College Football Playoff birth and undefeated regular season.
The Minnesota Golden Gophers will try to stay competitive in the Big Ten West tonight against the Maryland Terrapins. After being Co-Big Ten West Champions last season, expectations are very high for the Golden Gophers, even after the loss last week to the Michigan Wolverines.
Despite there not being a Wisconsin game on Saturday, there are plenty of storylines for Badger fans to follow this weekend that could impact Wisconsin Big Ten title hopes.
