And, I can't see how Harbaugh keeps his job after 8 straight losses to Ohio State.

9 wins per season

Moot point anyway, with the 4 top teams winning it is hard to imagine any big shake ups now. Perhaps Utah gets in if OSU or LSU get a new a hole torn next week in the conference championships.

Yep, I do know that Purdue not beating Indiana will get coaches fired, but when you play below .500 for many years the only thing that matters most years is putting a P on the chain on the bucket.

Harbaugh is safe unless he melts down, which I keep thinking is going to happen some day. I don't much like him, but he did take over a disaster after Rich Rod and has been a solid winner. But the last 2 losses to OSU have been spectacular.

I assume he will have a new D-coordinator, probably from the NFL or a former head coach.

Rumor is Harbaugh may be out at Michigan and on his way to Charlotte to coach the Panthers who fired Ron Rivera yesterday.

Certainly not out of the realm of possibility.

Harbaugh with a young QB is a recipe for success.

How about that committee and their weekly moving of the rankings...er...goalposts to keep OSU #1

OSU is an exceptional team, has a chance to be the GOAT from the Big Ten (11/12/13/14) if they win out. But Wisconsin is a very tough team...

and I do very much think the committee has teams they want in and teams they want out.

It will be interesting to see what happens after the conference championships if OSU loses and UU wins.
