Big Ten Leads List of Top 10 Flops in Week 2 of the College Football Season
The league went 2-6 against Power Conference opponents and suffered an 87-3 blowout as Week 2 exposed costly mistakes.
- The Big Ten topped this week's Flop 10 after delivering upset losses and self-inflicted wounds during the first two weeks of 2026, with Big Ten teams going 2-6 against fellow Power conference opponents.
- In the Big Ten's famous 'Maps' commercial, The Guards sing the conference will be 'shining everywhere,' yet the Flop 10 ranking made the conference a fitting headliner for bad losses and baffling decisions.
- Oregon quarterback Dante Moore threw for 191 yards while completing just 48.3% of his throws against Oklahoma State, the worst of his career, while Ohio State coach Ryan Day faced criticism for late-game clock management as Texas scored with only 25 seconds remaining.
- Wagner suffered an eye-popping 87-3 loss to James Madison, with the Dukes scoring 80 consecutive points aided by an NCAA record-tying three punt returns for touchdowns, while Georgia defeated Western Kentucky 38-13.
- With only Michigan and Iowa managing wins against Power opponents, the Big Ten hasn't done much to suggest a fourth consecutive national title is coming, particularly after going 0-3 against the ACC.
