    Illinois is going to win but Purdue has taken a 17-10 lead

    Meshugge, TCU and the Hedge Boyz look like they're in right now. USC is the heir apparent for No. 4 but they gotta get by the Domers first.

    If you think your teams have sucked this year I offer my 2022 season up.

    1. The Broncos are 3-7 and have a bleak future because of the picks they gave up in the Russell Wilson trade.

    2. Colorado is 1-10 and behind 42-0 at halftime.

    3. I decided to check on my high school for solace. They went 0-10 and were outscored 512-26.

    TCU and USC still have to win next week, too.

    Of course. But does a 2-loss LSU or a 2-loss Bama that didn't win its division get it over a 1-loss TCU?

    By kicking a field goal, it goes from a three-score game to a three-score game. That’s some good Auburn math!

    That's a good question. I'm an LSU fan and I'm not sure I'd like that precedent. I'd rather TCU win out and it's a moot point.
    But should it come to it, TCU's non-conference schedule is weak (at Colorado and vs. FCS school Tarleton), and the Big 12 was down this year. A bunch of B12 teams that were highly regarded at one point — Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Kansas — have completely fallen apart. TCU's best win, should they lose next week, would be against either Kansas State or Texas which would have beaten them the second time around.
    LSU's wins over Alabama and Georgia coming down the stretch would be hard to ignore if they're trying to go with the hot hand.

    Purdue takes control in the fourth quarter and gets a late pick-six to go up 31-10 on Indiana. Looks like they'll get the chance to get steamrolled by Michigan next week.

    I like stupid things, so rooting for Purdue to win the Big Ten.

    Don’t tell my Hoosier wife.

    Unrelated: Did anyone have a weirder year than South Carolina?

    I updated my question since your reply, but thanks. The B12 definitely cannibalized itself this year. Probably going to be TCU vs. Varsity in the title tilt.
