If Michigan beats Ohio State, the B1G is getting two in BCS

given this weekend's chaos, I am more convinced now than last week. The two up scenario is going to come into play if the Wolverines can close it out.

Both Michigan teams? Or do you see Wisky getting revenge?

The ONLY way MSU is getting a BCS bid is if they win the B1G title game

I agree.

Up to tonights games (OK and Oregon) I was pretty adamant that the Big10 was only getting one team. Now that its a hodge-podge of 2 loss teams the Big10 gets two in easily.

If Michigan wins and goes to BCS that puts OSU at 6-6, if we were to beat Nebraska I think that could bumb us above OSU, possibly ahead of Penn state(if wisky beats them) and would that win over nebraska possibly get us in outback bowl discussion Iowa just beating Nebraska both 8-4??? Probably still go with Nebraska, but maybe some discussion.

Wisconsin will go to the Rose and Michigan will get an at large. MSU gets f'd again and heads to the Cap 1!!

Jon,

What if MSU loses to Northwestern and then wins the B1G championship? Would the B1G still get 2 into the BCS?

The reason why I ask is I found this quirky BCS qualification on bcsfootball.org and if I am reading it correctly it says a conference has to have 2 teams ranked in the top 14 to get an at large bid.

Quote:

If fewer than 10 teams are eligible for selection, then the Bowls can select as an at-large team any Football Bowl Subdivision team that is bowl-eligible, has won at least nine regular-season games and is among the top 18 teams in the final BCS Standings subject to the two-team limit noted above and also subject to the following: (1) if any conference has two or more teams in the top 14, then two of those teams must be selected and (2) from the teams ranked 15-18, a bowl can select only a team from a conference that has fewer than two teams in the top 14.

BCS selection procedures

So in my scenario it is unlikely MSU would be ranked in the top 14. If this happened I do not think the B1G could get 2 into the BCS. The Pac12, SEC, Big12, and possibly even the Mountain West and ACC could all have 2 teams ranked in the top 14 of the BCS.

Am I wrong?

I have good money on Michigan, the bucknuts little streak is over.

The streak of the cheaters over Michigan is already over. They vacated their win last year.

They will get annilhilated Saturday. Michigan can't wait to get those creeps into Ann Arbor. It is going to get bloody.

Good point. The new streak continues.
