The Sun Belt Conference is a bit perplexing with regards to their Championship. They have 12 teams, though, no Championship Game. At present, there are three Sun Belt teams with a 6-1 first place conference record; Arkansas State - Troy - Appalachian State ...

Arkansas State plays Troy this week, while Appalachian State plays Louisiana-Lafayette. One might think, the Ark State/Troy game would be the de facto Championship. However, App State did not play either Arkansas St or Troy in the regular season. So there will be a Sun Belt Co-Champion this year, unless Louisiana beats Appalachian on Saturday.

Ohio State won't beat Wisconsin. Wisconsin is better than they are getting credit for and this is a bad match up for Ohio State. If Ohio State can't get consistent pressure on the Dline the short passing game and outside running game at Wisky will eat them up. You have to have a good backfield to defend Wisconsin. They love to crowd the middle and run to the outside with misdirection. Michigian did the same, but couldn't hit the screens and quit hitters or they would have beat Ohio State. Wisconsin has a QB who can complete those passes.

This is a media game. This game has no socially redeeming value, no significance other than feeding the ego of a voracious appetite duo. I think Old Ducker has it correct and I don't even know what his pick means.

It's Cal's affection nickname for Stanford.
