+ Washington will continue its gauntlet with a road game against Iowa, which will be coming off a road game of its own versus Ohio State. The Huskies are 3-2 and now have to play No. 10 Michigan, Iowa, No. 23 Indiana, No. 11 USC and No. 7 Penn State in consecutive games. Oh, and they get No. 6 Oregon in the regular season finale.

+ As mentioned above, Penn State will square off against USC in a highly-anticipated matchup, the first between the schools since their epic Rose Bowl game at the end of the 2016 season. Sam Darnold’s Trojans outlasted Saquon Barkley’s Nittany Lions, 52-49, in that thriller out in Pasadena.

+ Purdue and Illinois, two programs that are trending in opposite directions this season, will go head-to-head. The Fighting Illini, who suffered their first loss of the season last week to Penn State, are off this week. The Boilermakers, meanwhile, have to play at Wisconsin’s Camp Randall Stadium. That’s a tough two-game stretch in an already tough season for Purdue.

+ The game circled with the boldest marker on the Big Ten calendar all season will take place: Ohio State versus Oregon in Autzen Stadium. In what could be a preview of the Big Ten Championship, a pair of national title contenders will go head-to-head.

+ Minnesota will hit the road to play UCLA. This week, the Golden Gophers — who just gave Michigan a scare in The Big House — are hosting USC. So they’ll play the Big Ten’s California schools back-to-back weeks to kick off October.
