As the Buckeyes were in meltdown mode against Purdue last night, JUB tweeted this:
By “it’s better for them if Ohio State wins”, Bacs is projecting out Michigan’s resume in a discussion around who gets in the playoff. Yes, beating a top-ish ranked & undefeated Ohio State in Columbus would look better in a beauty contest.
First of all let’s be so fortunate that Michigan wins the rest of its games including the finale in the Snake Pit. That’s still a tall order.
Then there’s the playoff itself. I like that the playoff exists, and when the time comes I’ll get into the discussion around who should get into the playoff as much as anyone.
