CONFERENCE REPORTS

at No. 2 Michigan State 24, Indiana 21: LJ Scott ran for 146 yards and two touchdowns, and the Spartans held on through a lackluster second half.

Iowa 10, at No. 19 Wisconsin 6: Jordan Canzeri ran for 125 yards and Iowa took advantage of four turnovers by Wisconsin quarterback Joel Stave to upset the Badgers. Tight end George Kittle caught a one-yard touchdown pass from C.J. Beathard in the second quarter for the only touchdown in the game and Iowa beat a ranked opponent for the first time in its last 10 attempts. Wisconsin (3-2, 0-1) had its 10-game winning streak at Camp Randall Stadium ended, and lost for only the eighth time in its last 79 home games dating to 2004.

No. 22 Michigan 28, at Maryland 0: Desmond Morgan had nine tackles and an interception, part of a dominating defensive performance by the Wolverines, who earned their second shutout in a row and have given up 15 points in their last four games.
