MSU would likely go to the Rose if that happens.

November 21st, 2015 at 7:39 PM ^
Um how is that possible?
I thought they specifically made a rule about runner ups going to the tied in bowl to avoid bullshit like in 2011 when we made it into the Sugar against Va Tech when it really should've been MSU.

There is no such rule. They can pick who they want and one team that would not be attractive at all would be MSU if they lose to Iowa.
November 21st, 2015 at 9:19 PM ^
um, no such rule.
November 22nd, 2015 at 12:44 AM ^
think there is a rule about them not being able to chose a team with 2 more losses but nothing about the cham game runner up.

would be a good start. Reality is Michigan will probably play on New Year's day in Florida OR in San diego on December 30th.

Probably beat OSU and Michigan has a very good shot at the rose bowl unless MSU loses to Penn State and Michigan goes to B1G championship game.
I figure if MSU wins next week they likely beat Iowa as well and 1 conference loss Michigan gets the Rose Bowl over Iowa and 2 conf loss OSU.

Having thought this through, there is a strong possibility the Big Ten could get shut out of the playoff if Michigan State wins out. In that case, it's Sparty to the Rose. Sparty needs to lose to either Penn State or Iowa to send Michigan to the Rose Bowl. Of course, if ND loses to Stanford or the Big12 shakes out in an odd way, things could be different.

Michigan beats OSU, Iowa beats MSU, Stanford wins out and the Rose Bowl picks 10-2 Michigan to play Stanford over 11-2 MSU.

If we do that and Sparty loses to PSU, we probably end up in the Rose whether we beat Iowa or not.
If we do that and Sparty beats PSU but loses bad to Iowa in the B1G championship, we may go to the Rose Bowl.
November 21st, 2015 at 7:36 PM ^
I don't care about which bowl at all. All I want is to beat Ohio State. Rose v. Citrus v. Outback... whatever... beat OSU and send Urbz to the fake hospital in a fack ambulance with a fake heart attack.

My thought all along is that if UM made it to the B1G champ game they'd go to the rose regardless because they would either be a 2 loss champ which I don't see making the payoff or they loose to Iowa and be runner up.
However, after today, I wonder what would happen if UM beats OSU, MSU goes on to obliterate Iowa...would the Rose bowl take a 2 loss UM over Iowa?

There is a scenario where MSU does not go to the playoff even if they win out. Just like we were worried about ND, they should also. If ND wins out and OK wins out, there is a good chance, OK and ND are going to the playoff.
November 21st, 2015 at 8:15 PM ^
If it takes MSU going to playoffs in order for Michigan to go to Rose Bowl, then I'm perfectly fine with that. I root for whats in Michigan's best interest, then I root against OSU/MSU/ND.

Beat Ohio State and somebody beats MSU. We'll probably be picked ahead of them for $$$$ reasons.
