Iowa travels to Happy Valley for their next game after a bye week. Penn State's QB pressure will be extremely difficult for Iowa to handle.

Wow the Big Ten is terrible

How do you figure? They have three nice teams and possibly a fourth if Nebraska keeps winning. And is this comparing to anything else? Hopefully not the Big 12.

I generally follow the Big 12 due to the ISU fandom but there isn't a very strong team in there this year.

The Big 12 is also terrible

Gotcha. Funny thing is there really isn't a conference that's got A LOT of good teams. The top teams in each P5 are generally very good, and then it's a lot of average teams, some capable of doing what PSU did tonight.

Hypothetically speaking does a one loss ohio state team with michigan winning the big10 beat out an undefeated wvu or baylor for a playoff spot?
No, but...

Alabama
Undefeated Michigan/Nebraska champion
Clemson/one loss Louisville(?)
Washington
Undefeated Baylor/WVU

Hmm...

CFP does not want B12 in after that fiasco of expansion drama- especially if UW is undefeated and Big Tin is flopping around about how they had 4 teams in Top 10. This is year B12 feared by being at 10 members and no championship game. Thanks David Boring Boren - you hosed the conference you "said" you wanted to preserve. Fool!

So we all become Badger and Buckeye fans in the coming weeks to see if a one loss Big10 team gets in over an undefeated Big12 team. WVU has some big games remaining that'll move them up the polls if they continue to win.

ACC Champ - Lock
SEC Champ - Lock
Big Ten - lock if Mich or Neb, questionable with 1 loss
PAC -?
Big12 -?

The Big12 needs to cheer a Washington loss to feel better, but I think we're at least guaranteed right now that there won't be any two bid conferences or G5 teams stealing a spot. If either Baylor or WVU can remain undefeated I really think they get in. Craziness will ensue and it'll work itself out in the end.

Alabama lock
Big 10 Champ lock
Baylor or WVU if they win out lock
Mad scramble for final spot

An undefeated P5 Conference Champion should be in. Hard to justify leaving out an undefeated team and taking a 1 loss team.

B12 has to hope for either WVU or Baylor to remain undefeated. Hope someone upsets Nebraska and then have Nebraska take Big Ten title. Big Ten would not be a lock in that case at all. Not sure how you can leave off an undefeated B12 team.

Obligatory "Touchdown, they did it!" for unranked team toppling #2 OSU.

Maybe OSU isn't as good as we thought. Be interesting to see if they drop out of the top 6. Waiting to see if Washington moves to #3 behind Ala. And MI.

Wisconsin should take care of Nebby next weekend but that's probably not the upset you're talking about.
