Can #2 Indiana football survive the sleeping giant at Penn State's Beaver Stadium? The Hoosiers face a desperate Nittany Lions squad still loaded with NFL-caliber talent, playing before 107,000 screaming fans with everything to prove after their season collapsed.

We break down why Curt Cignetti's team can't overlook this trap game despite Penn State's struggles, examining the Hoosiers' injury concerns on the offensive line and at wide receiver. Plus, we analyze the College Football Playoff implications as Indiana fights to maintain their #2 ranking and secure that crucial first-round bye. 

We also preview the massive college basketball showdown between Tom Izzo's #22 Michigan State Spartans and John Calipari's #14 Arkansas Razorbacks—the first ranked-versus-ranked non-conference game at Breslin Center in six years. With Calipari bringing his trademark five-star recruiting class to East Lansing, this early-season test will reveal plenty about both programs.  Meanwhile Izzo is in year 31 as the head coach of the Spartans!

Watch now for our complete game-by-game breakdown of this weekend's Big Ten action, including Ohio State's injury updates, Oregon's playoff-critical trip to Iowa, and why Penn State has more fight left than you think.
