PISCATAWAY -- Big Ten optimists might see a path for two teams in the College Football Playoff.
But reality hit hard this week when the initial CFP rankings had no Big Ten teams in the top five, with Ohio State at No. 6, Penn State at No. 7 and Wisconsin at No. 9.
The only way to change that is for the best teams in the Big Ten to dominate the other guys -- and hope for a little help.
The spread: Penn State by 8.
