2020 Buckeyes Football

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
For anyone hoping there's an out of conference match-up, it ain't happening. Any fill-in game will have to take place against a conference opponent.
 
Even if they could play a non conference opponent, that wouldn't get them in the Big Ten championship game. They need 6 conference games if they don't change the rules. Although maybe if they played Texas A&M and won, not winning the conference wouldn't matter to the committee.
 
Let's not forget that FOX, who is paying the B1G truckload of $$$$, was banking on ratings for OSU-UM this weekend and OSU in the B1G Championship game. They will do everything they can to make sure OSU plays this week and plays in the B1G Championship game next week.
 
Purdue cancelled practice. Opens up IU, or for the B1G to shift around some stuff.

I wouldn't be surprised with IU-NW and OSU-Illinois.
 
IU’s game against Purdue is in jeopardy. Let’s do a rematch for the division.
 
Everyone knows the BIG 10 is just going to ignore the rules they made and do whatever they can to get their horse to show.

And if the roles were reversed... the BIG 10 would tell IU to pound sand and the rules are the rules.

They should change the name of the conference to OSU and the BIG 10.

They would change the rules for anyone sniffing the playoffs.

Rules they made up on the fly. It's not like these are longstanding traditions.

Disagree.

They should change the name of the conference to OSU and the BIG 10.
Or OSU should go independent. OSU would benefit from that and the B1G would suffer.

5-0 IU and 6-1 OSU with a loss against IU?

They would tell IU to pound sand 100% of the time and try to bolster OSUs resume for the playoffs.

I disagree. They would realize OSU has no shot with 1 loss with Florida and A&M sitting with 1 loss (1 SEC loss which equals 2 Big Ten wins @Cratylus ) and do everything they can to get IU into the playoffs if they beat OSU.

Why make the rule in the first place? The big 10 shot themselves in the foot when they held firm on nebraska.

We all know the conference is going to be hypocritical and go bend over backwards for OSU. So it doesnt natter. Its just a terrible look moving the goal posts.

The rules were fucking stupid to begin with and everyone said so at the time. No hindsight happening here. Typical Big Ten to fuck themselves over. Sticking by a stupid rule for nothing beyond stubbornness and arrogance would, again, be typical Big Ten idiocy.
