Oregon, Iowa, & USC take massive falls in Big Ten power rankings entering Week 9 in college football

In the latest rankings of Big Ten football, Oregon, Iowa, and USC have experienced significant drops. Oregon, who had high expectations following the offseason acquisition of Dylan Raiola, has struggled and now finds itself at the bottom of the rankings. Iowa, despite a recent change in quarterback from Hank Brown to Jeremy Hecklinski, has faltered, allowing only 13 points while scoring just 10 themselves.

USC, previously ranked highly, is now facing criticism for its lack of defensive prowess and urgency to improve, given the remaining tough games against Ohio State, Indiana, and UCLA on its schedule.
