## Resource

The Big Ten football race is already looking NOTHING like we expected. Jacob Goins of Locked On Hoosiers joins Zach Seyko of Locked On Nittany Lions to break down a wild weekend across the conference. Bob Chesney and UCLA are suddenly making noise after a dominant win over Maryland, while Oregon bounced back against USC and Lincoln Riley. Are the Bruins actually becoming a Big Ten contender? And where do Indiana, Ohio State, Iowa and undefeated Nebraska fit into the conference race? Plus, Penn State has major questions after a brutal loss to Wisconsin, Northwestern gave Indiana everything it could handle, and Mike Locksley's future at Maryland continues to generate conversation. Jacob and Zach discuss which Big Ten teams are legitimate contenders, which teams have been exposed, and how much our expectations have changed through the opening weeks of conference play. Subscribe to Locked On Hoosiers and Locked On Nittany Lions for daily coverage of Indiana, Penn State and Big Ten football.
