As long as the Big 10 champ finishes with 1 loss they are still in it. They don't have a chance with 2 losses.

The way things are I think the only option is an undefeated Penn state.

I think SEC/ACC/Big 12 champ all come out with a max of one loss, and if the PAC 12 has 1 it will obviously be in, it would be interesting if Oregon won the PAC 12 with 2 losses and MSU wins Big 10 with just his loss.

If each of the power conference champions has 1 loss or less, B1G gets left out IMO. It would be a travesty any other way.

No way the B1G makes the playoff. Even a 1 loss champion just doesn't deserve it. tOSU is weak, Michigan is getting embarrassed, Wisky lost to a team that might finish 3rd-4th in the SEC West, and Sparty got blown out by Oregon.

A high 2 loss sec team will get in over 1 loss big 10.

I agree...but if Oregon goes undefeated in a loaded PAC 12 that loss doesn't loos quite as bad. We were dominating half of the game...Oregon just scores really quick

No you don't know what will happen in the other conferences. What if the ACC champ has two losses? What if there is an upset in the SEC championship game where the one-loss division champ gets beat by a three-loss division champ?

Way too early to count any of the big 5 conferences out.

But the other half didn't look very pretty...

They're done. They have zero chance unless there is complete chaos in other conferences where a ton have 2 losses.

It may as well be the Power 4 conferences

I wonder why Notre Dame wants nothing to do with them anymore.

Why laugh? It's true...Oregon just scored much faster and has a better offense... There is a reason teams don't go out there.

OSU and VT currently tired in the 4th.

I count 4 losses for the B1G today and in many of their wins they really seemed to struggle save Wisconsin.

Whisky is still in this. They played a ranked opponent and did very well. The rest......Meh.

Maryland might become the great hope for the B1G
