The 2022 Big Ten conference football season was the 127th season of college football play for the Big Ten Conference and part of the 2022 NCAA Division I FBS football season. This was the Big Ten's ninth season with 14 teams. This was the Big Ten's final season broadcasting on ABC Sports properties.

Previous season[edit]

Michigan and Ohio State were co-East Division champions, with the Wolverines making their first appearance Big Ten Championship Game due to their head-to-head win over the Buckeyes in 2021. In the West Division, Iowa won the division title and made their second championship game appearance. In that championship game, Michigan defeated Iowa 42–3 to win the Big Ten championship. With that win, the Wolverines landed a spot in the 2021–22 College Football Playoff as the No. 2 seed. The Wolverines lost in the semifinal game of the playoffs to third-seeded and eventual national champion Georgia in the Orange Bowl.

Besides Michigan, nine other Big Ten football teams qualified for bowl games: Iowa, Maryland, Michigan State, Minnesota, Ohio State, Penn State, Purdue, and Wisconsin. Additionally, Rutgers was chosen based upon APR rate to replace Texas A&M, who dropped out of the Gator Bowl due to COVID-19 protocols. The Big Ten overall went 6–4 in postseason games in the 2021 season.

Coaching changes[edit]

There were no head coaching changes amongst Big Ten programs before the 2022 season. On September 11, Nebraska fired head coach Scott Frost three games into the season and named Mickey Joseph the interim for the remainder of the season.[1]

On October 2, Wisconsin fired head coach Paul Chryst, five games into the Badgers' season and named defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard as interim head coach.[2]

Nebraska named Matt Rhule the 31st head coach in program history on November 26, 2022, one day after finishing their 2022 season.[3]

On November 27, 2022, one day after finishing their respective season, Wisconsin announced the hiring of Luke Fickell to become the Badgers' 31st coach in program history.[4]

On December 8, 2022, Jeff Brohm announced he was leaving Purdue to return to his alma mater, Louisville.[5] On December 13, the Boilermakers announced the hiring of Illinois defensive coordinator Ryan Walters as their next head coach.[6]
