The Big Ten lost a national contender this weekend as previously unbeaten Wisconsin lost to Illinois on Saturday, which will likely cost the Badgers any shot they had at advancing to the College Football Playoff.
The same can’t be said for Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Florida or Georgia as they all won over the weekend to keep their hopes alive for another week. The biggest shocker from the SEC this weekend came with Missouri losing at Vanderbilt, which knocked the Tigers out of the latest AP Poll.
This week, there are five SEC teams ranked in the new AP Poll.
