The primary goal is hit sets and stick dismounts. Iowa landed the most sticks with Oklahoma and Ohio State rounding out the top 3 for week 4. In my opinion the stick bonus should be valued more than one tenth. If a stick was worth one point. That would be a game changer.

- Iowa 11
- Oklahoma 10
- Ohio State 9
- Minnesota 8
- Penn State 7
- Michigan 5
- Illinois 5
