I haven't seen too much crying on here, at least not as much as I saw in my facebook feed. I'm over it. It sucks, but UM lost and the fans need to own it. This is all I hope for coming out of the UM-OSU game: Please let something be done about the horrible officiating going forward. Let that game be a turning point for a drastic improvement. MSU got screwed against Nebraska last year, and I recall MSU getting hosed at ND a couple of years ago, that may have cost them an undefeated season. Let's just get it fixed, so none of this happens again. ND vacated that win so state did go undefeated

I don't necessarily believe OSU>UM based on a close win on a questionable call late. If Michigan played better and didn't turn the ball over they would have won. They almost did anyway. Giving the game away doesn't make the other team better than you it just means you beat yourself.

5 is such a dick tease...poor mich Don't deserve it and should not be in it. I thought they didn't fall enough after losing to Iowa. Oh, and UM better hope they don't meet USC or Colorado in the Rose Bowl, because that'll be an ass kicking.

Will be funny if they get hopped by Colorado and penn state/wisc, two teams they beat, if they both win conference championships

Also no way Michigan gets rose. That will be the big ten champ

And I wonder how that game would have ended had Colorado's QB not went out against UM.

5 is such a dick tease...poor mich Ratings Ratings Ratings
and more Ratings......
Penn State/Wisc or Colorado deserve to be the 4th team if Washington fall saturday. It's a shame UM is still in the top 5. I would have them at 8 right now. Head to Head means nothing if youre not playing during championship weekend....

I have no issue with Michigan being ranked 5th. They're ahead of Wisconsin, Penn State, and Colorado, whom are all 10-2 and Michigan beat face to face. With that being said, just like a couple years ago where Baylor/TCU were left off due to not having a championship game...even if Washington,Clemson,&Oklahoma all lose, the committee will select the conference champs for 3rd & 4th spot. It would be Colorado, Okie State or Wisconsin/Penn State winner.
Not a chance in hell the committee takes two teams from the same conference in which they did not win.
My prediction: 1. Alabama vs. 4. Ohio State 2. Clemson vs. 3. Washington
I think Washington jumps Ohio State due to the fact that they won their conference.
I feel bad for Wisconsion & Penn State.

They just came off a 4-9 season in which they lost their last 5 games. Now that they've won a bunch of these games in a row, they're not playing like losers anymore. They have some swag. Colorado's new winning attitude coupled with a healthy Liufau, I think Colorado could beat Michigan, especially at a neutral field. Is this a possibility for the Rose Bowl? I feel like that would be great.

I don't see OSU falling when they didn't lose and didn't play. They'll stay at 2.

Just like 2014, Florida State & Ohio State jumped TCU to get in the final 4 because they won their conference championship. And in some crooked way, I think the committee will think Alabama v Ohio State / Clemson v Washington will be more competitive in comparison to Alabama v Washington / Clemson v Ohio State. Just my opinion.

I feel like that would be great. Michigan knocked half the qb's it played out of the game. That wasn't a random occurrence that you ignore. Michigan's defense also improved from that game. See 80 yards of offense for Ohio State in the first half.

Under 300 yards, 8 sacks, interception, 124 yards passing, 27 yards rushing for weber on the road against the number 2 team bruh...but I'm sure Colorado's feel good emotions would overwhelm them now.
