'Ole Miss losing helps Indiana, but Indians better hope that aTm doesn't beat Texas...

A&M has a shot to beat Texas because of it being a home game. Vandy also plays at home against Tennessee but I think that Vols defense is too nasty for Vandy to win. Tennessee is probably secure as a playoff team if they beat Vandy. UGA @ home against GT, gimme the Dawgs.
OSU beats Michigan this year and ends up in B1G CCG vs Oregon in a rematch.
Oregon Penn State Ohio State and Texas all have clinched a spot. The rest still have work to do

Indiana's in trouble--Cignetti knew it too and that's why he ran clock then was livid Ohio State scored late--he wanted people to think it was competitive when it wasn't.

Lots of things can save Indiana though. Notre Dame losing, Vandy beating Tennessee, Auburn beat A&M or Bama, GT beat UGa, etc

Who to root for

I think everyone has the right idea here. I think if PSU wins out we are in the playoffs and get a home game. If PSU loses another game, it's the bubble at best and probably SOL.
For SOS:
YES --- Illinois over Rutgers
NO --- MD over Iowa (we can always hope)
NO --- Wisconsin over Nebraska
YES --- OSU over Indiana (unless you're sentimental or you have a slim hope of PSU winning the conference)
YES --- Bowling Green over Ball State
YES --- West Virginia over UCF

To Keep B12 and ACC as 1-bid leagues
YES --- Kansas over Colorado
YES --- ASU over BYU
NO --- Wake Forest over Miami, Virginia over SMU (These two ACC games if we're really optimistic - but UM has a chance to lose next week vs the orange)

The Anti-Irish vote (ND currently takes up a bid, but another loss probably knocks them out.)
Army over ND

SEC Chaos is our friend
Oklahoma over Alabama
***YES --- Florida over Ole Miss
Auburn over Texas A&M
NO --- Kentucky over Texas
NO --- but UMASS hung in there for a while --- (I'm assuming that Georgia and Tennessee will handle UMass and UTEP)

Several of these went our way. Illini will be ranked, BGSU and WVU won, and more important, another 2-loss SEC team bit the dust.

Glad PSU found a way to win despite playing not too well. We've seen Minnesota kill PSU seasons before, so let's take the win and get out of there.
