The Big Ten has officially postponed their season, but many fans of Big Ten schools who were projected to have big football seasons will still need to endure some more heartbreak as the first AP Top-25 ranking of the 2020 college football season dropped on Monday and six Big Ten schools were featured. For those wondering, Michigan State was not on the list..
The Big Ten teams who made the Top-25 were:
- No. 2 Ohio State
- No. 7 Penn State
- No. 12 Wisconsin
- No. 16 Michigan
- No. 19 Minnesota
- No. 24 Iowa
Ohio State was one of the heavy favorites to win the National Championship, which is a big reason why their fans and players were so adamant about wanting to play, and not postpone, the 2020 season. Buckeyes starting QB Justin Fields was one of the most vocal players in the country about the decision, even going so far as to start a petition to reinstate the season.
