They also smashed west va who is 4th in the Big12.Penn state is a joke. They have one “ quality “ win. And that’s Iowa.

I think they'd need help at that point. Florida state loss probably. Michigan will need to play its worst game since covid to be facing that reality thoughI think Michigan is in even with a loss on Saturday. They’ll still have wins over OSU and Penn State.
Now a loss could bump them down to #4 and a potential matchup with Georgia in the semis. They’ll want avoid that at all costs
Who had the easiest schedule in the big 12. Record does not tell the quality of WV. They are two wins higher minimum than they should be. I wouldn’t use them to help your point.They also smashed west va who is 4th in the Big12.
Less than zero percent chance if they lose to Iowa.I think Michigan is in even with a loss on Saturday. They’ll still have wins over OSU and Penn State.

PSU is still a very good team. If you want to nitpick every little thing then I shudder to think of how you view the Big12 let alone the new Big12.Who had the easiest schedule in the big 12.

Isn't nitpicking every little thing, exactly what the playoff committee is supposed to do, though?PSU is still a very good team. If you want to nitpick every little thing then I shudder to think of how you view the Big12 let alone the new Big12.
Is Penn state being considered for the playoff? Nah. They count as a great win for Michigan and OSU though.Isn't nitpicking every little thing, exactly what the playoff committee is supposed to do, though?
They can beat other good teams, they can’t beat great teams like Michigan and OSU.A very good teams that can't beat other good teams?
Penn State's status as a "great win" is being considered, though, and so the nitpicking comes into play when they're trying to determine how "great" it actually was.Is Penn state being considered for the playoff? Nah. They count as a great win for Michigan and OSU though.
Tell me their good wins. I mentioned Iowa. I don’t see any other good wins. You want to use WV which managed to play 7 of their 9 conference games against the 7 worst teams in the conference. They are indeed the definition of the tallest midget in the big 12.PSU is still a very good team. If you want to nitpick every little thing then I shudder to think of how you view the Big12 let alone the new Big12.
I don't hate the Big 10 - but they don't play any other good teams this year.They can beat other good teams, they can’t beat great teams like Michigan and OSU.
Regarding Penn State -
Are they beating Georgia - no
Texas - No
Oregon - No
Michigan - no
Ohio State - no
Alabama -no
Washington - maybe, but probably not
Healthy Florida State? - I don't think so
Oklahoma - maybe?
LSU - maybe?
Missouri- IDK. Maybe?
Like... they're not that good. Are they bad? No. But they're not this amazing quality of a win. They are Kansas State. Only Kansas State rises up and beats the Texas and Oklahoma's of the world occasionally.
LOL. Penn State scored 33 points on Indiana. Whose defense is worse, or at best, less talented, than LSU's. LSU's problem is the secondary. They are decent up front.They'd beat LSU pretty handily. LSU would still score on PSU's defense because that offense is really, really good. The flip side is LSU's defense is horrific and PSU would score over 40 on them.
I think they'd also beat OU. Not sure they'd beat Missouri. They'd lose to any of the top 7
Yep I agree they only have the Iowa win in their record. They are a victim of the big ten being down this year.Tell me their good wins. I mentioned Iowa. I don’t see any other good wins.

The big 12 has a hard split between the top half and bottom half. The big 12 is also down some this year, I admit that. Going forward, I can’t say since I don’t know what the PAC schools will bring.
They have Kstate also.Yep I agree they only have the Iowa win in their record. They are a victim of the big ten being down this year.
Texas has a single ranked win in its first game of the season against bama. Great win, but only one. They lost to an extremely mediocre OU team who struggled to beat UCF and lost to an unranked Kansas and an OKST team that got its breaks beat off by South Alabama and UCF! That’s the team texas is playing in the championship a team that got crushed by South Alabama.
So again penn state is a good team, I would happily put them up against anyone anyone else outside the top 8 teams.
