Ohio State and Wisconsin could be on a collision course to meet in the Big Ten Championship game for the second year in a row, if the AP Top 25 poll holds true. The Buckeyes are currently the highest-ranked Big Ten team at No. 4, followed by No. 9 Penn State, No. 14 Michigan, No. 15 Wisconsin and No. 21 Michigan State.
The Buckeyes travel to the Nittany Lions for a major Week 5 showdown that could decide who wins the Big Ten East. Ohio State or Penn State has won the Big Ten Championship in three of the last four seasons.
