We can see the finish line, finally.
It’s right there … see it? Just duck your head around that Michigan/Penn State basketball game Sunday afternoon (no hoops, not yet!), squint through that Buffalo/Ball State game at Ford Field on Friday night (get your own Misery Index, MAC!) — and you’ll see it. There! Saturday! Indianapolis!
<angels’ chorus> The Big Ten Championship Game! … <waves hand> and some other games, in some other places.
C’mon, if you can’t get excited about Ohio State’s fourth straight appearance, and Northwestern’s second in three years … you’ve obviously been watching a lot of Big Ten football this season.
