There are a few Big Ten teams that rank in the top 10 nationally in terms of offensive efficiency.
According to ESPN's Football Power Index, offensive efficiency is ranked on a 0-100 scale, "based on offense's contribution to scoring margin on per-play basis, adjusted for strength of opposing defenses faced."
Despite falling to Ohio State, the Indiana Hoosiers lead the conference with a rating of 85.1 out of 100.
Shockingly, the Buckeyes aren't No. 2. In total, three teams have a ranking of 80.0+ or higher, OSU included, but there are nine teams that have received a failing score of 60.0 or below.
