OOOOOPSIE!

Jesus, I'm a huge OSU fan but you guys gotta give it up. Ohio State is still the poster child for the Big10 until UM knocks them off, but in less than two years Harbaugh has turned a loser of a program to one that even as of today has an extremely legitimate shot to make the CFP. Call it for it is, but they gotta beat OSU before mad props are given.
That being said, Louisville's loss absolutely removes them from CFP contention. At this point, the viable teams are:
Alabama
Clemson
OSU
Michigan
Washington
Penn St.
Wisconsin.
Let's assume for sake of argument that Bama and Clemson are locks. That leaves two spots for the six remaining teams: The scenarios are as follows, at least IMO.
If UM wins out (to include B10 championship) they are clearly in.
If UM loses to OSU, they are clearly out
If OSU beats UM and doesn't go to the B10 championship, their schedule is clearly the best of those bubble teams. A UM win would mean they've beaten a likely top 10 OU, a probable top 15 Nebraska, and a likely top 10 UM (assuming a loss in two weeks).
So the questions become: How much do they win the post-season title (for Washington or B10 champ)? How much do they view head-to-head? The best case scenario for OSU (assuming Penn St. isn't going to lose of course) is that Wisconsion beats them in the B10 championship. Assuming Washington wins the PAC-12, I find it very unlikely that the committee would see the B10 championship as "more valuable" than the head-2-head matchup. Certainly makes it all interesting!

From the Week 12 thread.....
Ohio State beats Michigan State and Michigan, and Penn State also wins out, the Nittany Lions capture the Big Ten East crown by virtue of handing the Buckeyes their only loss, and they would play for the Big Ten title, most likely against Wisconsin. That either sets the stage for two Big Ten teams in the playoff, or the committee leaving out Ohio State because it didn't win its conference title. Or the committee could dump Penn State, which lost by 39 at Michigan, or Wisconsin, and go with the Buckeyes.
Yeah, it's complicated. But what could anyone expect after three of the top four and six of the top 14 teams lost in a single weekend?
There obviously are a lot of critical games ahead, and the only seemingly safe team is No. 1 Alabama, the only remaining unbeaten Power 5 squad, which has almost certainly earned a mulligan after dominating a tough schedule.
Two weekends remain in the regular season, including many rivalry showdowns, and then conference championship games. No. 9 Oklahoma plays two ranked teams -- No. 14 West Virginia and No. 11 Oklahoma State -- to conclude its season, while No. 6 Washington can reverse its downward course against Arizona State, No. 22 Washington State and against a highly ranked team in the Pac-12 title game (No. 13 USC, No. 10 Colorado or No. 12 Utah).
More good news for Washington, which owns the weakest schedule among the contenders: Stanford re-entered the rankings at No. 24, meaning the Huskies now have two wins over ranked teams.
It seems like a stretch that No. 2 Ohio State could win out and not make the playoff, even if the Buckeyes don't make the Big Ten title game. Rich Barnes-USA TODAY Sports
Ohio State is back at No. 2 due to a strong overall résumé, with three top-20 wins (Wisconsin, Oklahoma and No. 18 Nebraska). The Buckeyes could add Michigan to that list, but they also could end up sitting out the Big Ten title game.
While No. 4 Clemson is no longer unbeaten, it also has quality wins over No. 15 Auburn, No. 5 Louisville and No. 17 Florida State.
Louisville owns a five-game winning streak, and its lone loss was a nail-biter at Clemson. On the other hand, its only quality win came against three-loss Florida State. The Cardinals play unranked Houston on Thursday and conclude their regular season against Kentucky.
Wisconsin's only losses came in consecutive games with Michigan and Ohio State, while it owns quality wins over No. 16 LSU and Nebraska. The Badgers are at Purdue this weekend and conclude their season at home against Minnesota.......continued........
Plus you never can trust any committee when it comes to an unbiased vote PLUS still a little time left.

I can't imagine a scenario where the committee chooses Penn State over Ohio State or Michigan no matter who won the B1G. The object is to have the best teams in the CFP and Penn State ain't it. They had a great game against OSU but like Iowa they're not better than the team they beat.

Yes I agree, you were incorrect and have nothing left to say.
I'd pick OSU over Michigan right now, but we'll see what happens.

well since you want to continue,michigan scheduled shit teams (ooc & don't tell me about Colorado they had not had a winning season in over ten years)knowing that they had a weak Big 10 schedule WISCONSON at home and MSU and OSU on the road so they were looking at best a 2 loss season,well turns out MSU is on the shitter you barely beat Wisconson and end up losing to IOWA and a loss to OSU coming up so they get what they expected 2 lost games and completely over rated at #3

God you're an idiot.
So we simultaneously don't get credit for a CU team that ended up being great, but we're hurt by an MSU team that ended up being bad?
And no shit if we lose to OSU we won't be 3...
Take off the Scarlet and gray tinted glasses for two seconds, fuck.

It's just that PSU beat OSU head to head. I think that would be the difference.

But most importantly, that OSU team had more talent and depth than this Michigan team currently. Losing our QB hurts more. We'll get to that talent level in a year or two, but Harbaugh hasn't had enough time yet.
YOU are the one that doe's not have a clue,so go fuck yourself woody

OSU will have only 1 loss. No way they drop out of the top 4.It's just that PSU beat OSU head to head. I think that would be the difference.

Really? You mean you are dorkier than that guy? I was not sure that was possible.
Of course it is. We're talking about Michigan fans here.

Oh, by the way......I think Michigan State is odds on favorites to beat Penn State. MSU has had a crappy season, but they are coming on like gangbusters now.....and should be considered the favorite to win the PSU game.

That, or they put all their emotion into the OSU game and will now be tapped out. Could go either way.
I've been surprised that Franklin's teams have been so good under late season pressure to win. Usually don't see that with a third year coach (see: Washington).
