The B1G could also have a 2 loss champion. This isn't high probability, but possible if either tOSU or Michigan State beats Penn State, since both teams other loss is out of conference. tOSU would probably have to lose to Michigan for that to work. I admit I am operating on the assumption that a tie is decided by head-to-head, which I think is correct. Michigan State would have to lose to somebody like Northwestern, which is less probable, but it could happen. It would be real interesting to see what the committee would do in that case, especially in the presence of four other conference champions with 1 or fewer losses. For that matter,  if the B1G champion has 2 losses, it would be interesting to see what would happen with a 2 loss Stanford that beat ND and "erased" one loss by beating USC in the championship game. The B1G champions loss would be considered "better" I guess, unless it was Michigan State, who lost to ND. It just shows it it a bad system. We need an 8 team playoff!
