4 wins from another B1G Title.
Now let's bang...

the just released schedules were a flat-out statement that the B10 doesn't believe SOS will matter in playoff selection

Uhh
Uhh
I don't think this is correct. We are tied with Wisconsin, and they beat us head to head. We only play them once. Am I missing something or wouldn't Wisconsin be Big Ten champs if we were to be tied at the top with just them?
EDIT: I guess I was wrong. Same record is a split title. I guess it makes sense considering they didn't have to come to our place.

I think we would get #1 Seed if we win out because we would have an overall ranking better than Wisconsin. For instance if we were #1 or #2 and Wisconsin was #10, we would B1G Ten #1 Seed.

Big Ten Tourney tie-breaker

http://www.bigten.org/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/100606aae.html
Let's say Michigan and Wisco finish the regular season atop the rankings. Wisco gets the #1 seed because of tie-breaker #1. Ranking does not matter at all.
TWO-TEAM TIE
1. Results of head-to-head competition during the regular season.
2. Each team's record vs. the team occupying the highest position in the final regular season standings (or in the case of a tie for the championship, the next highest position in the regular season standings) continuing down through the standings until one team gains an advantage.
- A. When arriving at another pair of tied teams while comparing records, use each team's record against the collective tied teams as a group (prior to their own tie-breaking procedures), rather than the performance against the individual tied teams.
- B. When comparing records against a single team or a group of teams, the higher winning percentage shall prevail, even if the number of games played against the team or group is unequal (i.e., 2-0 is better than 3-1); in the case of tied percentages vs. the team or group of 1.000 or .000 the following shall apply: 2-0 is better than 1-0; 0-1 is better than 0-2.
3. Won-loss percentage of all Division I opponents.
4. Coin toss conducted by the Commissioner or designee.
If it's a multi-team tie, then ranking still doesn't matter:
MULTIPLE-TEAM TIE
1. Results of head-to-head competition during the regular season.
- A. When comparing records against a single team or a group of teams, the higher winning percentage shall prevail, even if the number of games played against the team or group are unequal (i.e., 2-0 is better than 3-1); in the case of tied percentages vs. the team or group of 1.000 or .000 the following shall apply: 2-0 is better than 1-0; 0-1 is better than 0-2.
- B. After the top team among the tied teams is determined, the second team is ranked by its record among the original tied teams, not the head-to-head record vs. the remaining team(s).
2. If the remaining teams are still tied, then each tied team's record shall be compared to the team occupying the highest position in the final regular-season standings, continuing down through the standings until one team gains an advantage.
- A. When arriving at another pair of tied teams while comparing records, use each team's record against the collective tied teams as a group (prior to their own tie-breaking procedures), rather than the performance against the individual tied teams.

But it doesn't wipe it out.
It makes the MSU game must win (as well as the other road games) and most likely removes the chance to win it outright. It goes from only a major collapse costing us the title to having to win out. That game still matters big time.

Here's what I mean. If IU,
Here's what I mean. If IU, as expected, had won today and we had won in Madison, we'd be in the exact same situation as we are - one game behind IU and likely needing to win out.
The breaks tend to balance out. People forget how close we came to losing to Ohio at home. And IU's loss to Illinois was arguably as shocking as ours to UW when you think about how big a lead they gave up. Anyhow, if we had won in Madison, maybe IU would have brought their "A" game tonight, knowing they had to protect their lead in the standings.
