The two division winners should be in. If OSU did not play enough games, that is Kevin Warren's issue. nah... the two best teams should be in if we're going to break the rules already set forth. Break the rules to make it right, not to appease OSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierMama Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 This week is gonna get crazy!!! And I'm here for it. No matter how this plays out someone gets screwed because of how the Big Ten set this all up. I say go with the rules you set out at the beginning of the season and let's have IU NW in the title game next weekend! Pretty sure there's only about a .2% chance of this happening though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FritzIam4IU Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 If PU or MI can't/won't play this week how about OSU vs IU in Bloomington rematch? Winner goes to Big Ten title game. I'm sure it won't happen, but it would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the rules set IU should go, you're right. However, I don't see the Big Ten following their own rules...I would guess they will find a way for OSU to get in to the championship game.

Billingsley99 Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 I think you set rules and if you won't enforce them you.lose even more credibility. IU met the criteria and OSU did not. Black and White. After we beat NW, people can then discuss if OSU got screwed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly thats my point. Why punish Indiana, they did what was asked. They could have easily lost in those extra games. Everyone just assumes that OSU would have won the extra 2 games but they did lose at PU not long ago to a not great PU team. Indiana has met the criteria, I think changing the rules is a mistake. Given that we played them to a 1 score game. its not like we are an embarrassment to be in the title game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierfan1215 Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 Iu vs northwestern. Let Ohio state play Iowa. Two big ten teams make NY6 bowls. Big ten makes money. Everyone wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t take that away from them. They’ve earned that spot already. That’s why they are playing us for the big ten championship. They win they should move into the top 12. Osu plays Iowa to help their resume. We got a chance to play but so does NW if they beat us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
