and finished #5.  BUT, they beat #2 and #7  after starting out with 2 losses before that magical run.  So, the way I see it this year, they need that magical run again and some help.  I think they need Wisconsin to beat Michigan and Ohio State MUST lose one division game.  After watching the Indiana game, I think Michigan has a very good chance of taking them down.  Correct me if I am wrong, but Michigan's defense is pretty good, ahead of PSU's defense and I don't see Ohio State scoring at will like they did against Indiana.  Michigan State losing hurt, one less ranked team to play now. Wisconsin plays Michigan next, I would like see Michigan lose before PSU plays them and I think Wisconsin will be ranked in the top 10 when they come to Happy Valley if they beat Michigan.

Ohio State is the problem.  They have to lose a season division game,  If they make the BIG10 Champ game and lose, PSU is going to need a lot of help to make the top 4 if they win out.
