Absolutely. We just need 3 results to go our way ;)

- Beat Northwestern
- Purdue loses to Indiana
- Iowa loses to Nebraska

Those 3 things happen and we're going to Indy.

Edit: for those thinking "no way", remember we needed Nebraska basketball to win at Wisconsin last year to give us a chance at a title share. Crazy stuff happens!

Technically yes. But Iowa beating MN was likely bad. Better chance Wisconsin beats Minnesota than Nebraska beating Iowa.

What needs to happen:
1) Nebraska beats Iowa
2) Indiana beats Purdue AND
3) Illinois beats Northwestern

Edit: Looks like danielb927 beat me, but he is spot on.

Of the three teams left (Iowa, Purdue, and Illini), I think we match up best against Michigan/Ohio St., followed by Iowa. Purdue would get stomped.

Thought it was interesting that MN/Wisc now has no impact on who goes to Indy.

Iowa goes with a win.
Purdue goes with a win and Iowa loss.
Illini go with a win and both of the above losing.

If all 3 lose, Iowa would go.

Mississippi State wins the Egg Bowl 24 - 22 over Ole Miss.

For the gentle readers of this here chatroom who are frequently mystified by the play calling of our beloved, Lane Kiffin burned back-to-back time outs after scoring the touchdown to bring the score to 24-22 with just over a minute left. The 2-point attempt, a shovel pass, but broken up by one of MSU's gigantic D-linemen, ensuring the MSU victory. Oh, and Ole Miss got ball for their scoring drive when Mike Leach called a QB keeper on a 2nd and goal. It was pouring down rain, and MSU's running backs had been gashing the Ole Miss D the entire second half. A TD there would have iced the game, but the QB got stripped of the ball at the 1 yard line. Ole Miss then marched 99 yards to pull the game to within 2 points.

With Tulane’s win over Cincy:

They go to their first conference championship game ever.

They broke Cincy’s 32-game home winning streak.

They broke their own 61-game losing streak against ranked teams. Hadn’t beaten a ranked team since the 80s.

I won’t be surprised if Willie Fritz gets looked at for some bigger jobs. He’d be a good fit at Kansas. He’s from the area.
