Exactly. It isn’t that it’s OSU, it’s that it’s a perpetual conference powerhouse. You gonna screw over your most important team for some stupid made up rule from August?

Correct. Should be noted that "perpetual conference powerhouse" is the same as "one of the few that generate nearly all the money". And it matters, and there's no reason it should not.
I don’t have any problem with OSU being accommodated. They’re obviously one of the best teams in the country. I do wish they could have found a way to expand it to 8 teams this year though.
Speaking of accommodations, it's certainly too late for next year, but at the nearest point possible in the future, tOSU should get consecutive home games against TTUN.

Doubt they’ll do that.

Me too. But they should.

So OSU would also owe Illi a back to back in Champaign?

Not really the same, as the two have played consecutive-year home games against the other in recent history.
University of Michigan COVID-19 testing update:
From Dec. 5-11, they tested 2,798 athletes/coaches/staff
They had 13 positive cases. 9 athletes/4 staff.— Jordan Strack (@JordanStrack) December 11, 2020
And they had 15 positive tests among the athletic department last week. So, basically, Herbie is 100% right in his assessment of Michigan.
Would be beneficial to the Big Ten if Northwestern is impressive today against the Illini
Wazzou/Cal called off less than 2 hours before kick because of Cal players testing positive this morning. Yikes.
Northwestern looks like what they are today. They won’t offer much competition for OSU next week, but it will be another top 25 game for the Bucks.
Florida loses. One more team out of the playoff chase.
Washington has pulled out of the Pac12 championship game. Oregon taking their spot. What a cluster.

That's what happens when you follow the Big Ten's lead - a quagmire where you stepping on your dick.
OSU is going to be without some guys today. Not sure who yet, but I saw some rumors that Olave was one of them.
Also, the B1G didn’t bother redoing the field for today. So go Colts!!

Well, if 45% of the receiving game is gone (hopefully Wilson's 40% is there!), that'll necessitate some younger guys stepping up.
Olave, Smith-Njigba, Browning, and Chrisman are the bigger names missing today. Hooker was a GTD, but it’s been reported he’s in sweats now that warmups have started.
Hartline and Al Washington are both missing the game too.
Chrisman put out a post saying he tested positive. Not sure about anyone else.
Awful start.

Colts home tomorrow probably main reason.
Fields looks like trash and Day is calling some terrible trick plays and not running it enough. Ugly
