OSU-Michigan: Postgame chatter
Now that Ohio State has humbled Michigan — an outcome that has become as predictable as traffic jams on I-75 — it’s time to look ahead.
What’s next for the 10-2 Buckeyes?
We’ll know more when the sun goes down tonight. Three big games to monitor:
• Penn State-Michigan State, 3:30, ABC — An upset by the Spartans would put Ohio State in the Rose Bowl for the first time since 1997. If Penn State wins, as expected, the Buckeyes would still have a shot at a BCS at-large berth.
• Boise State-Nevada, 4, ESPN2 — If Boise State goes undefeated ,the Broncos could grab an automatic BCS bid. If Utah also goes undefeated and locks in an automatic berth, there will be a lot of support for Boise taking a second at-large bid, which would knock Ohio State down to the Capital One Bowl. But Boise faces a tough test today.
• Utah-BYU, 6, the mtn — Utah, the highest-ranked non-BCS conference team, could lock up an automatic big-bowl bid with a win. If the Utes lose, the Buckeyes look like a possible BCS team (although Oregon State could push Southern Cal into the at-large pool). BTW, nobody gets this channel, so don’t look for the game.

“BTW, nobody gets this channel, so don’t look for the game.” If you have TW, you dont get it. It’s on DirecTV channel 616 right now. Even in HD. TW is a joke.
