Someone is trying to tell me that if Ohio state wins out and Michigan only loss is to osu then PSU will play in the tittle game? Is this the case? The rules for a three way tie are different.

I believe Michigan will have to lose 2 games to be out of the Championship ... they hold the tie-breaking edge over PSU (I believe that to be correct, but it goes down to the 4th or 5th tie breaking rule to get to that conclusion).

I was in Ghana last week (got home in time to go boating before the boating place closed ;):D ). Had to watch the PSU game on my phone with the BTN app ... in bed with a phone watching it at 3AM ... :facepalm:

If it ends up in a 3 way tie between Michigan OSU and PSU then OSU holds the tie breaker.

48 yard field goal attempt is GOOD! Blewitt makes the game winner (presumably because there is 6 seconds left)! 43-42 Pitt over Clemson with 6 seconds left!

That win by Pitt shakes up the BCS a bit.

Georgia beat #9 Auburn.

Georgia Tech over #14 Virginia Tech.

Duke won against #17 North Carolina.

All 4 unranked wins over ranked teams. Any more today?
