As to the first sentence, being tied for first in the standings is all that is required to be Big 10 Champs. Sorry.

As to the second, I can feel just as good about saying Big Ten Champ, and I don't give a [censored] about the OSU PSU contest. Why? For the same reason as I don't believe Stanford is better than USC in 2007 despite head to head results. Sometimes the better team doesn't win. Don't get me wrong, H-2-H is instructive.... indeed, it's a perfectly good tie break and I wouldn't argue it's not.... but... it's not the Big 10 tie break. And I don't feel any worse for it. (Likewise, we can argue if PSU or OSU is better, and the h-2-h results are surely a point in PSU's column.... but... lets not forget, OSU was a fumble away from putting PSU behind the 8 ball.... and with a cold QB)

He makes some good points though in the article. I understand where he is coming from, and if the rolls were reversed, Buckeye fans would feel the same way. Heck, I remember a lot of people didn't even want Iowa sharing the Big Ten championship in 2002. I'm just trying to not be so biased, and hopefully most of you can respect that. We are four time Big Ten Champs. It's the way the system works, and always has worked. But I can understand Penn State feeling more claim to it than we should.
I wouldn't give a [censored]. I might give them a hard way on message boards just to bust their chops, but frankly, I could care less if it's shared with anyone.
