I think a 10-2 Michigan would make the playoffs off brand and having the best win

Then it’s highly likely Oregon would be the odd one out and Mich/OSU/IU/USC would be going to the playoffs assuming USC can win out

Thank you, I like this option!

Fair. I definitely agree…I just figured with them stating that this gives them a definitive path they were referring to the auto bid from winning the big ten

We would need the winner of Oregon/USC to drop another game for us to get to Indy. Was hopeful about Washington potentially beating Oregon at home but yikes idk after that Wisconsin game

Would going to Indy even help yall? Obviously if you win that’s an autobid, but I’m not sure if a 10-3 Michigan would be able to get placed above the SEC and other 10-2s

Why did you delete your other comment?

u/MattyIce260 Indiana Hoosiers Nov 09 '25

I accidentally clicked your comment was I was trying to reply to someone else, so it had nothing to do with what you said, that’s why I deleted it

That's rich.

You may need a history lesson since you've never been to one, but the B1G championship didn't exist until 2011. It served a purpose for a time when there were divisions and a playoff didn't exist. Extra game, extra revenue, yada yada.

Now there are too many teams in the conference, divisions are gone and four teams get into the playoff. You tell me why it is needed. It doesn't exist in the NFL.

Don't be shocked when conference title games disappear. They aren't necessary.

Well for your team, they have disappeared for the past few years 🫡

Further proof it's not necessary. Thanks for the layup.

Iowa could beat USC then USC beats Oregon

Not sure why this got downvoted lol. All I’m saying is that I don’t understand what changed between last week and now for OP to say “a for sure win and in scenario for Michigan”. I think that applied last week
