Michigan State still stays on the 2 line despite the loss IMO.

I would switch Michigan and Michigan State due to head to head. Same with Ohio State and Wisconsin. Both won on the other teams court. Both have similar records in comparison with the other team.

Nah, Michigan has two more losses and the committee takes into consideration injuries. Assuming they all get back before the big ten tourney that will weigh heavily

It's close. There is a ton of ball left thought that will make things more clear. If Michigan beats Michigan State again at Ann Arbor and wins the Big Ten outright, I think they at the worst get a 2.

Committee really doesn't factor in h2h results. They look at the entire body of work, plus MSU has been w/out it's entire roster. I think they only have one loss when everyone is healthy. And they are all projected to be back by March.
