Not gonna lie, the past 2 games have been awful, but if somehow we can ruin Michigan's bid for the CFP today it would make my day.
Very little brings me more happiness than seeing us beat Michigan. That said, I think in theory if we were to win this one and next week, so long as at least 3 teams are tied at the top of the west, I think we make the B10 championship and that would certainly qualify for me. Let's make this season really special. Win this half, guys and shock the world!

Pretty sure if Purdue wins out, which isn't unlikely, our chances to win the West are 0 percent.

Stats are not too bad after that first Fichigan drive. Need to believe in what we do!

If Iowa wins out too, 3 way tie with the tiebreaker becoming best record vs division. In that scenario we win at 5-1 against the west

If Purdue wins out, we obviously need to also, and so does Iowa. We’re the wild card there most likely.

But if all three do, we still win the west!

Sounds like Corum jogged out in full uniform.

Michigan is a second half team? So are we.

Need the right three teams tied atop the standings. If Purdue is involved, it needs to be Iowa.

4 way ties, we are in better shape. 5 way tie we are slam duck to win.

The SEC preps for their big we are so tough thanksgiving rivalry games by scheduling FCS noncons in week 12 every year

And they're not the only SEC team doing it. Mississippi State is playing East Tennessee State. You also have SEC teams like Texas A&M, Auburn, Miznoz, and LSU playing Group of 5 schools like UMass, Western Kentucky, New Mexico State and UAB.
