Leaders Division: OSU.
Ohio State faces Michigan in its tune up game for Indianapolis. It is hard to find a loss there.
UolM W-L% is 0.6364 (7-4), having lost 3 of the past 4 and the sole win was eked out in 3OT.

Legends Division: MSU.
Michigan State faces Minnesota before boarding the bus to Lucas Stadium. The trip is assured, but a win over the Gophers is far from certain for the Spartans.
