I think that if we lost to USC, we may have another crack at them at the Rose bowl, or even the National Championship game, and would've beaten them! The loss would've been early enough in the season, and away from home....if we kept the game close enough there is no reason why we wouldn't be back in even the National championship game. Of course, this assumption is purely based on USC being a great team this year too.
For me personally, winning the Big Ten is the first priority. Can never get bored of winning the Big Ten every year!

That goes against the premise of the poll. In the poll's conditions, tOSU can't have a regular season loss and get to the NC game, since they'd either win the NC or lose a second game, which aren't options.

If I had to pick one game to lose it would be for the Scarlet team to lose to the Gray team at the Spring game, we're The Ohio State University any other game is unacceptable.

At wisconsin.
Toss-up between Wiscy and MSU (for many of the same reasons that other people had). But when it comes down to it I cannot stand a loss to any team from that state, even if it is Mark Dantonio. And I like wisconsin a lot of the time.
