Brief recaps....courtesy BigTen.org

Ohio State 44, Penn State 31
J.T. Tuimoloau had a strip sack to set up No. 2 Ohio State for a separation-score in the fourth quarter and then a pick-6 to cap a spectacular performance by the defensive end as the Buckeyes erased a fourth-quarter deficit to beat No. 13 Penn State 44-31 Saturday. C.J. Stroud found his groove for Ohio State in the fourth quarter and finished with 354 yards passing as the Buckeyes ran their winning streak in the rivalry to six in a row — none by more than 13 points.

Minnesota 31, Rutgers 0
Mohamed Ibrahim rushed for 159 yards and three touchdowns on 36 carries to lead Minnesota past Rutgers 31-0 on Saturday to snap a three-game losing streak. Quarterback Tanner Morgan crisply returned from a concussion that kept him out of the previous game for the Gophers, who enjoyed a 19-play, 99-yard drive on their first possession that drained 10:24 off the clock.

Cockeye 33, Northwestern 13
Spencer Petras threw for a touchdown and ran for another, and Drew Stevens kicked four field goals as Cockeye defeated Northwestern 33-13 on Saturday. The Cockeyes (4-4, 2-3) snapped a three-game losing streak with their highest point total of the season. Northwestern (1-7, 1-4) has lost seven straight.

Illinois 26, Nebraska 9
Chase Brown rushed for 149 yards and scored on consecutive series in the second quarter, helping No. 17 Illinois beat Nebraska 26-9 on Saturday. The Illini beat the Cornhuskers for the third year in a row. They won a sixth straight game for the first time since 2011 and secured their first winning regular-season record since 2007.

Michigan 29, Michigan State 7
Blake Corum ran for 177 yards and scored twice, and Jake Moody made five field goals to help No. 4 Michigan remain unbeaten with a 29-7 win over Michigan State on Saturday night. The Wolverines (8-0, 5-0 Big Ten) scored 26 straight points after falling behind briefly late in the first quarter.
