There is a massive Friday matchup between two undefeated teams, a pair of Big Ten East foes go at it under the lights, and Ohio State has a sneakily difficult game.
Overall, there are eight games involving Big Ten teams during Week 5, with six of those games being conference matchups. The Badgers and the Wolverines open things up on Saturday on FOX as Wisconsin looks to get back to winning ways.
