The Big Ten didn’t see a ton of excitement this past weekend aside from the Maryland/Minnesota game.

The Terrapins and Golden Gophers played arguably the most exciting game in the conference slate. Maryland scratched out a 31-24 win behind a very strong effort from quarterback Max Bortenschlager.

Ohio State throttled Rutgers just like everybody thought they would. Penn State dominated Indiana for a majority of last Saturday’s contest and Saquon Barkley continued to add to his Heisman Trophy resume.
