Comes down to game times, right? USC controls its own destiny since they beat Utah and both are 5-2 in conference play.
Because of the Utah loss to UCLA, the way I understand it is that the battle in LA will be a play in for the Pac12 FCG

Browsing the comments on the ESPN site for that game from Suckeye fans, it's evident that their OC is dead meat.
Love the Ohio St loss. What's the concencus: is the loss of Herman as OC the primary cause of their offensive struggles? Because it seems like all of their playmakers are still there.

Probably that ... and Urban's indecisiveness on who his starting QB should have been for the season.

Northwestern beat Wisconsin 13-7 in the most f'ed up game I have ever seen. Not because the wrong team won, NW should have won by three TD"S, but because the reffing made the PAC-12 refs look like the Super Bowl crew. Watch the last two minutes if you get a chance, and those weren't the craziest call in the game. A Wisconsin punt returner made the "don't touch" move to his teammates - waving his hands back and forth well below his waist. The ball popped up right to him and he grabbed it and broke 11 tackles to return it for a touchdown. Should have been 14-10 Wisconsin. Refs call illegal fair catch signal. Even dumbass Matt Millen couldn't come up with a plausible explanation for that one.
Now I am put in the horrible position of having to cheer for Nebraska next week, because Iowa can't go to the playoffs. They just can't. They have played nobody, and nearly lost to half of them.
Plus, they're Iowa.

Four SEC games on right now. The BSPN machine has gone all in. Talk about a conference I have zero interest in and is living off their past accomplishments. I'd take the PAC top to bottom hands down. Looking forward to the bowl results.
9 pac12 teams currently bowl eligible. Possibility that 11 could make it. Gotta like the conference odds during bowl season

Only caught the highlights, but that "fair catch" ruling was ridiculous. And Wisky's TD that was overruled with seconds left sure looked like a catch to me. Both the NCAA and the NFL need to seriously review their interpretations in the offseason as to what does and doesn't constitute a "catch." It really shouldn't be that hard.

Utah still has the overall better record? Unless I am wrong on that?

I thought first tiebreaker was head-to-head if they have the same conference record?
Looks like you are right.

So what? Awfully flimsy logic to root for unl, might have to turn in your Buff card. Actually makes me question if you're really a Buff.
How can anyone not shake their head seeing the SEC teams play these games this late in the season?
Its what happens when you only play an 8 game conference schedule. It's bull****.
And GA Southern has just gone up 14-7 in the 3rd.

It's not like I am cheering for them to win anything - they're not going anywhere. I just don't want Iowa to win. Not sure I can do it anyway.
