Game of the week UCLA (3-4, 3-1 Big Ten) at No. 2 Indiana (7-0, 4-0), Saturday, noon ET (Fox) UCLA never would have seemed like a candidate for any sort of spotlight game this season after a brutal start that included four straight losses and the firing of DeShaun Foster,

The difference between the top of the Big Ten Conference and the rest of the league is becoming larger as the second half of the conference season begins.

Oregon and UCLA were part of the Pac-12 but joined the Big Ten last season as part of college football's great realignment. The Ducks and Bruins have boosted the conference's profile tremendously, and both squads are part of a three-leg parlay featuring the Big Ten in Week 9 of the 2025 college football season.

Aiden Fisher intercepted the first pass of the game and returned it 25 yards for a touchdown, and the Mendoza brothers each ran for scores as No. 2 Indiana routed UCLA 56-6 on Saturday.

Indiana and Ohio State remain undefeated and hold the top two spots in the Big Ten power rankings. Iowa and Nebraska saw significant jumps in the rankings after decisive Week 9 victories. UCLA and Minnesota experienced major drops following blowout losses on the road.

Ohio State was off this week, but Indiana was in action and looked impressive. Who takes the top spot in our Big Ten power rankings after Week 9?

Indiana football’s 56-6 victory over UCLA on Saturday afternoon at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington was just that.

Penn State? The season is over in State College. Since the pulsating loss to Oregon late last month, the Nittany Lions (3-3) have collapsed with losses to UCLA (road) and Northwestern (home). And they lost quarterback Drew Allar to a season-ending injury.

Dent, as dynamic as he is, will be just one half of what projects to be an elite Bruins backcourt. His backcourt mate, Skyy Clark, has been turning heads all offseason. In their 67-60 win over the Aztecs on Friday, Dent finished with 18 points and three assists and Clark ended with 13 points and four rebounds.
