The Wisconsin Badgers Thread

Not sure what you guys are worried about. As long as OSU doesn't choke you get the Rose Bowl

[behnke2017]

I'd rather have the win and in scenario with MSU losing today than having to rely on OSU to win. They should have a BCS bowl regardless with a win, but I'd really like the Rose Bowl and I'd love to play Boise State.

I'd rather have MSU lose because I want the Badgers to play in the Rose Bowl. If MSU loses I won't feel bad that they don't get to play in a BCS game either because it sucked when the Badgers were 11-1 and missed out on a BCS game a few years ago.

I wouldn't want to play in the Orange or Fiesta Bowl because I wouldn't want to get matched up against an awful big east champ or a mediocre ACC champ.

The ways the Badgers don't go to the Rose Bowl is if

they lose and MSU and/or OSU win
they win and OSU loses and MSU wins (MSU has head to head tie breaker but would the Rose Bowl pick the Badgers at large because of the following they have?)

It's so much simpler if Purdue won. All the Badgers would have to do is win and not worry about anything else. There's no way MSU or OSU pass the Badgers in the BCS standings if they win out.

7 Wisconsin .7688
8 Ohio State .7148
10 Michigan State .6063

BCS seems pretty much locked up if both teams win

The computer rankings aren't going to change because all three opponents (Northwestern, Michigan, and PSU) are essentially equal. The thing I'm slightly worried about is the human voters. If LSU loses could the voters have OSU jump the Badgers? Unlikely, but it's still a slight possibility.

If you have a vote, and you put Ohio State over the Badgers, your vote should be revoked. The Badgers should always be ahead of them now as long as they keep winning. The game they played should matter when it comes down to ranking 2 teams that played each other if they have the same record.

MSU beat the Badgers and have only one loss...

Timing of your loss plays into it as well. MSU lost later in the year and thus dropped in the standings later in the year, harder to recover.

I know, but should it? Of course MSU got absolutely smoked by Iowa while OSU and UW had lost by a narrower margin.
