After a wild Saturday in which three top-four teams lost, the College Football Playoff race got a whole bunch more complicated. The Big Ten title race is heating up as well, which will have a direct effect on postseason scenarios. Mich- igan losing actually hurt Ohio State’s bid for the East Division title as well. All Penn State now has to do to win the East is win out. With Rutgers and Michigan State on the slate, that doesn’t seem like the most difficult Harbaugh thing in the world. head coach Right now, Michigan still has the best chance of any Big Ten team to make the playoffs. If the Wolverines win out (which would include a win over the Buckeyes) and then beat the West Division champion, there is no doubt they are in. They’re also zeroed in on what’s ahead. “We still have big dreams there,” Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh said during Tuesday’s teleconference. “The focus of our team, the work ethic of our team, it’s been good all year.” A loss against Iowa did end the Wolverines’ quest for a perfect season, but there’s still a whole bunch more for the team ahead. There’s also a chance Ohio State still manages to sneak into the playoffs, even if it doesn’t make it to the conference championship. The Buckeyes The Hawkeyes wait to take the field before the game between Michigan and Iowa in Kinnick on Nov. 12. (The Daily Iowan/ Alex Kroeze) have just one loss, and if both Ohio State and Penn State win out (pushing the Nittany Lions into the Big Ten Championship), the Buckeyes By BLAKE DOWSON | [email protected] like Saturday night we knew was going to be tough.” would have an extremely strong case.
