College football is already providing its usual drama and intrigue, but conference play will continue to raise the stakes. Ohio State and Illinois will go head-to-head in a Big Ten matchup on Saturday.
Entering Week 1, Ohio State was the AP Poll's top-ranked overall team. The Buckeyes have since slipped down the ranks, particularly following a blockbuster 24-23 loss to Texas in Week 2. OSU recovered last week with a blowout win over Kent State, yet still dropped in the polls to No. 7 nationally. Can the Buckeyes redeem themselves after Texas?
Illinois remains unranked, having already let up lots of points against smaller opponents like UAB and Southern Illinois. The Fighting Illini also gave up their first loss of the season to Duke at home, a 31-27 defeat that didn't inspire confidence for the rest of the season.
