Big 10 SQUAD - What the Michigan State Spartans Will do in Week Twelve

Big Ten playoff hopes hang in the balance as conference chaos continues. How many teams will crash the College Football Playoff party?

Ten Big Ten podcast hosts break down the latest rankings and deliver predictions for Week 12's crucial matchups. The discussion covers Iowa's historic struggles on the West Coast ahead of their USC showdown, Michigan State's defensive collapse against Penn State, and Wisconsin's upset victory over Washington that featured their punter as the leading passer. Ohio State's dominance stands in stark contrast to Indiana's nail-biting wins, while Michigan prepares for a sloppy Wrigley Field battle against Northwestern.

Key analysis includes Iowa quarterback Mark Gronowski's first three-loss season ever, Michigan State backup Alessio Milivojevic's 300-yard passing debut, and why the Oregon-USC game could be a playoff elimination matchup. The hosts debate SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey's bold playoff predictions and whether two-loss Big Ten teams deserve postseason spots.

Tune in for expert predictions, friendly trash talk, and insider perspectives on which Big Ten teams will survive the playoff race.
