How do we win the tiebreaker with Ohio State if it comes to that?

Yeah. I forgot about Ohio St. I think they'll get the tie-breaker with overall wins.

I looked into the rules.....they're kinda weird.

Beings as Nebraska and Ohio State tied 1-1 in the overall series during the season, the next step the Conference uses is to start at the top of the league and see how each team did against the competition.....moving down the line until 1 team gains an advantage.

Both teams lost to Michigan, but Ohio State did beat Wisconsin.......so if Ohio State wins tomorrow and Nebraska loses, resulting in a tie for 4th place, Ohio State would win the tie-breaker beings as Nebraska will have lost to Wisconsin (the next team in line at #2) and Ohio State beat them.

If Ohio State loses tomorrow then it doesn't matter obviously what Nebraska does.

Nebraska's chances at finishing 4th simply increased....

Either we need Ohio State to lose or we need to win........either one will get us the first round bye.

I will be upset if we lose though.

Watching the end.

I gotta go out and change the oil in my pick-up. We're near 70 degrees today.

Minnesota's beating the shit out of Penn State. They'll get Penn State again at the first round of the BTT, with a shot at us in the quarters.

I've got a Dodge too. It's been draining for 15 minutes now. Just need to go put a filter back on and fill it back up. Then watch the Husker game.

I did scrap the side a little on a cart rack at Super Target earlier. :gaah:

Minnesota needs this game for everybody else's RPI points.

ESPN has them right at 50.

anything to keep Vegas on its toes...

Buckeyes played a terrific game, one of their best of the year...hat's off!

coach didnt turn it over repeatedly at the end.....they did cover the spread though so they got that going for them.

meh...
I'm ok with this loss. sucks, but...nobody got hurt and the team's flow seemed markedly improved since the Iowa game. State needs it's reconstituted "together-time", in practice and games. Couple more injury-free games next week and they'll be ready for the mad.

btw...did anybody else note that this is the first game in ages that Dawson actually attacked the fuckn basket? s'bout time, Branden!
