Agreed with the exception of PSU over IU. I'd like to see a tOSU v. IU Conf Champiionship game.
I think that minimizes the number of BigTen teams that get in.
PSU over IU would go farther to limit BIG teams getting into the playoffs than waiting for
conference championship game. That game will not keep one of those teams out of the playoffs. The committee has maintained that conf championship games will not penalize the losing team. Which makes me wonder what their purpose is other than a huge money grab.
That being said, I think IU is in the playoffs regardless if PSU upsets them.
The only team I'm rooting for is A&M for the rest of the season
ND will definitely get in and probably a bye if that happens.
USC is a direct competitor for a lot of ND national recruits, and they chickened out of the series. I am looking forward to them turning into Nebraska.
PSU is in a similar boat regarding recruiting.
Too much could happen still to know who exactly needs to win for the season outside of A&M, which would only be good for ND. Miami's 2 losses already trumped their H2H over us. We'd like them to lose at least one more or win the ACC outright to maintain position.
No freezing rain against Navy.

Keep an eye on LSU. They just might rise up now that you-know-who is gone.

Even Brian was good for one surprise win a year with LSU. the problem was he lost at least two a
year he shouldn't have.
