This is the most likely scenario if he goes to Purdue. Don't know why any up and coming coach would go there. Surely he'll have way better options available.

I seriously thought that Pitt/Syracuse score was a misplaced college basketball line... 76-61.

....though doubtful they'd jump a 2 loss Wisconsin so probably moot

1 thing for certain....can't drop Michigan much

If Washington or Clemson loses....can Michigan get in? Do they need PSU to lose again even though they beat them 49-10? Do the need Colorado to lose again even though they beat them by 17?

A ton of scenarios remain....especially is PSU loses to MSU and Wisconsin beats OSU

Michigan beat PSU and Wisconsin. I can't see them getting dinged for a double OT loss today. I think they get in with a Clemson or Washington loss.

The Pittsburgh QB completes 9 passes and they score 76 points.

Navy runs for 496 yards in a win over SMU. Dang.

They scored on every possession and once on defense while pulling their starters in the 3rd. They had 2 quarterbacks with over 100 yards rushing. It's pretty hard to score that many points in a college football game. They would crush WMU.

They have punted exactly 2 times in the month of November. Now that deserves a, "Dang!"

If Colorado beats Utah then Washington will not have a road win over a top 25 team.

It would be interesting if Colorado and Penn State both won conference title games. Do either of them get in over Michigan, who beat both? Does the committee say fuck it and put the Bedlam winner in over all of them?

i think bama, OSU, Clemson are likely locked in. I don't see Bama or Clemson losing next week. I think it comes down to Washington and Big Ten Winner for 4th spot. UM and Big 12 are out.

The playoff picture, to me, looks like this.

Alabama - In, even if they lose to Florida, which absolutely has zero chance of happening.

Clemson - In if they beat Va Tech.

Washington - If they beat Colorado, I think the committee puts them in despite the flaws in their resume

Last spot is for the B1G Ten - I think Wisconsin is out since they lost head-to-head to OSU on their home field. If PSU wins the B1G Championship, I still worry that the committee will value the head-to-head win and a conference championship more than Ohio State's SOS and quality wins. It's possible that the committee could decide to put a 2 loss B1G Champ and OSU in, and leave Washington out, but I just don't see them doing that.

Basically, I still think Ohio State has to root for VT/Colorado/Wisconsin to be safe.
