This is a completely moot point if UM does not win the next three, but I really hope MSU beats OSU. The Big 10 and Delany want a team in the playoffs. It will be extremely unlikely that a 2-loss OSU team will have a shot at the playoffs, regardless of the UM/OSU outcome.
IMO, the only way to UM is going to get a fairly called game @ OSU is if the possibility of the B10 getting shutout of the playoffs is looming overhead. After what happened in the shoe in 2016, we know that the Bucks are going to get every call at home if there is still a chance they can make the playoffs. I want the game to be decided by the teams on the field, not the refs. Hopefully, UM can finally break through.
I know it would hurt UM's SOS, but if UM wins out, it would be unlikely that a one-loss (to a potential playoff team) B10 conference champion would be left out.
