Rounds One & Two - The Big Ten
With Penn State's win over Tennessee, and Wisconsin's hard fought victory over Arkansas, the Big Ten wins its first two bowl games, both at the expense of SEC teams.
Already the talking heads are agitating for a “split” title if Michigan can beat USC, and Florida can upset Ohio State.
If Michigan wins the Rose Bowl, expect those voices to get very loud.

Thanks to Urban Cryer and the Big ten domination of the SEC today, a Wolverine blowout tonight creates a BCS nightmare senerio sending the states of Ohio and Michigan into def con alert.
Easy sports - wins are indeed wins, but neither was particularly "dominating". In the UT-PSU game, PSU gained 380 total yards to UT’s 350. The difference was UT’s 3 turnovers to PSU’s none. Wisconsin was lucky to win – 201 yards total offense to Arkansas’ 368, with a total of negative 5 yards rushing. It isn’t often a team wins with those stats.
That said, wins are wins, and 4th best Big 10 team in PSU beat the 5th best SEC team in UT, and the 3rd best Big 10 team beat the 4th best SEC team (Wisconsin over Arkansas).
Worst, most boring games ever, particularly the ham and cheese matchup. Big Ten won, SEC lost, and everybody else fell asleep.
I think Mike lost all credibility when he said Arkansas couldn't stop Wisconsin from "running it right down their throats."
Huhhh??? lol, my goodness. I've never seen a team "run it down" another teams throat for -5 yards.
Michigan better worry more about getting being down two TDs to USC late in the 2nd half rather than a "national title". Hardly an impressive showing by the Wolverines. The split title talk is as likely as a playoff system instituted in 2007.
PWNED! But how about that fellatic USC recruiting pitch at the end of the game?
