I know this was discussed earlier in the thread, but doesn't a Michigan loss today put us in the Rose Bowl at minimum? They could only get a share of the Big ten title by beating us and the Rose Bowl invites the team that has gone the longest without an appearance when there is a shared title. Has this changed?

In theory you're correct, but it all depends on the Rose Bowl

No head-to-head is the tie breaker. Next week's winner is the Big10 BCS rep.

That only occurs if two teams tie that didn't play eachother. scUM would automatically go due to beating us head-to-head.

That must have changed recently then because I recall us getting a lesser bowl even though we beat the Rose Bowl representative head to head. I don't remember the year but it was during the Cooper era.

Did we have the same record as the other team those years?
