  1. Record against the other three teams.
  2. Record within the division
  3. Reuslt against whoever finishes #5 in the division.
  4. Result against #6.
  5. Result against #7. (It's impossible for this to come into play, though--if this is decisive one of the others already was.)
  6. Record against all common conference opponents.
  7. Best total winning percentage of cross-division opponents
  8. Record against #1 in the other division, and so on through #7.
  9. Best overall record.
  10. Coin flip.

and another team. we would not win a three-way tie with MSU and OSU because both of them would only have 1 loss in the division.

the only way we win is if we are alone or in a 2-way tie with OSU.

We need PSU and MSU to have 3 conference losses

A field goal is a good call here. 

The only way that OSU can get back in this is some big momentum changer that lights a fire in them. 

A field goal keeps the steady death squeeze going uninterrupted.

Aren't people at all annoyed that MSU is this good? Wtf And Iowa is howing how a prostyle offense can whoop on OSU. But what's really Troy if OSU are two things 1. barrett sucking 2. Mate Stanley is sneaky good college qb

So does our fear level of Ohio State drop a few notches? Serious question, not trying to be a homer.

Thank you!

UMProud told me to check it out earlier too.  I thought it was a big sign in/sign up type thing, but it was really easy.  

Thanks to both!

Michigan fans rooting for Sparty today???? That just puts them in the drivers seat for the Big Ten Championship again!! After OSU got woodshedded today, MSU has a great chance of beating them in Columbus next weekend especially in bad weather! Sorry I don’t ever want to see that douchebag Dantonio on that championship podium ever again!

Fuck that. I'm rooting for Penn St. I don't like either of them, but would rather see anyone but MSU in another Big Ten Championship game. That would be just another number in the back and forth argument in-state.

We're not winning this division. That is a tiebreaker pipe dream that is extremely unlikely to happen under any realistic circumstances.

are rooting for our best interests. If PSU and OSU lose the door is not closed for us, if PSU wins today the door is closed.  You are obsessed with Sparty, they will not lose to OSU next week in Cbus, OSU will be pissed and ready

The DOOR IS NOT OPEN. Get it through your head. There is no realistic tiebreaker where we win the division. The best interest we have is to finish 2nd so we have a better spot to bowl from.

The hurdle is a pretty dangerous play for the ball carrier. Sure it's exciting/cool when it works, but it doesn't take much for a scary fall. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see it banned if someone gets messed up.
