How they'll fit in: Coach Mark Dantonio says Jarvis has the potential to be dominant on the offensive line, and that Dotson should compete for playing time as a freshman.
Conference championship weekend is upon us, here's how to watch each champion be crowned.
Jim Harbaugh's guarantee of victory over Ohio State before the teams met in 1986 worked out fine for the Wolverines.
The Wolverines need to win out — against the Hoosiers, at No. 2 Ohio State and in the Big Ten championship game — to win its first conference championship since 2004 and advance to the College Football Playoff.
Matt Dennison, president of the Ohio High School Football Coaches Association, said the decision will hurt prep football, adding that "the Big Ten's quest for money is greater than the great game of football."
Penn State needs to close with a flurry to have any chance of catching No. 2 Michigan in the Big Ten East and a loss at Indiana would likely end any hope of catching up.
The Big Ten has announced its schedule of Friday night football games for 2017.
"I think Saturday, it's a Saturday game," he said.
The Big Ten will play six Friday night football games a year starting in 2017 and continuing through at least 2022, the conference announced Wednesday.
The Michigan football program has always played its games on Saturdays. That will remain the case for at least another year.
Nebraska has a prime-time opportunity to silence the doubters.
It's that time in the football season when fans ask, "Whatever happened to...?"
The Spartans (2-5, 0-4 Big Ten) are a staggering four games behind No. 2 Michigan (7-0, 4-0) heading into their annual showdown game this Saturday.
After a loss, so much seems wrong with Ohio State. Even though very little has changed.
Michigan State is a mess. The Spartans can't decide on a quarterback, rank last in the Big Ten in rushing, miss tackles at an alarming rate and don't seem to have their signature toughness.
The most shocking decision may have come from Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio, who started Brian Lewerke over Tyler O'Connor on Saturday then brought O'Connor back in the third quarter of a 54-40 loss to Northwestern.
These two teams are the biggest underachievers in the Big Ten, so why is this the best matchup? Both are desperate to save their seasons.
The Big Ten Conference displayed its broader footprint Thursday with a landmark visit to the nation's capital.
This is the first meeting of the teams since the Buckeyes rolled the Badgers 59-0 in the 2014 Big Ten championship game.
The Big Ten has four teams in the top 10 of The Associated Press college football poll during the regular season for the first time since 1960, and No. 24 Western Michigan is ranked for the first time in school history.
Coach Mark Dantonio finds himself in an unusual place this weekend. He's trying to get No. 17 Michigan State off the mat and ready to fight back.
While No. 2 Ohio State and No. 4 Michigan are among the nation's top five scoring teams, the Big Ten Conference is just as good on defense.
The Buckeyes moved up to No. 2 in the AP Top 25 Poll following their 45-24 win in Norman and Louisville's blowout of previous No. 2 Florida State.
The Badgers must open conference play by facing three opponents ranked eighth or better in the AP Top 25 over the next three games.
