    Iowa vs. Stanford in the Rose Bowl.

    Ohio State vs. Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl.

    Just my informed opinion, not official yet.

    This has the makings of serious controversy.

    If Ohio State jumps ahead of Iowa in the CFP the Rose Bowl must select the highest rated B1G team available.

    Iowa deserves the bid but it wouldn't surprise me to see Ohio State undeservedly leap frog them in the poll.

    Stay tuned.

    Ohio State vs. Stanford in the Rose Bowl, Ohio State's spot was basically already determined before today. Because winner of tonight's game obviously goes to Playoff and Ohio State would have in all likelihood leapfrogged loser whichever team it was. Fact that Iowa was the team that lost makes it easier since Hawkeyes had easier schedule.

    As for the actual topic of this thread, my prediction is Peach Bowl, Iowa vs. Florida State

    Wow what a killjoy.

    Ohio State vs. Stanford.

    What a dud match-up.

    Fans would much rather see Ohio State vs. Notre Dame but since when do fans matter in the business of college football.

    It seems this is not a judgement call once rankings are release, as person above me pointed out, Rose must take highest ranked Big Ten team. And since Pac-12 champ is not in Playoff, it too is locked in. So no leeway for this bowl, only way to prevent Ohio State vs. Stanford would be to keep Iowa ranked ahead of Ohio State, which will not happen.

    Iowa should go to Rose Bowl. But I have a feeling it will be OSU. I'll also flip out of Okla State goes to Sugar. They're not a good team at all.

    Not even close. Iowa did not play Ohio State, Michigan or Michigan State (during regular season). Their best wins were Wisconsin and Northwestern. Bleh.

    WOW!

    Iowa ranked 6th, Ohio State ranked 7th. I thought for sure Iowa had more to lose by a loss with their schedule, seems to me Iowa is overranked and/or Ohio State is underranked. So looks like IOWA vs. Stanford in Rose Bowl.

    Great to see them get some respect. Having attended Iowa the last four years, there was an energy and excitement on campus this year that previous didn't exist.

    Standford went ahead of Ohio St. Winning and playing well in your conference championship weights heavily on selecters.

    Iowa is 6th. But doesn't matter, they are ranked ahead of Ohio State so Hawkeyes get Rose Bowl. Stanford finished 5th.

    Too bad for Stanford. Ohio State would have given them a great game and possibly won it. Iowa is slow and boring. Stanford has way too much speed for Iowa. Stanford opens as a 6 1/2 point chalk. That should be enough to sucker in the Big Corn fans.

    Why is getting +6.5 exciting to anybody?

    Never mind.

    Typical Big 10 Corn brains. They cannot even correctly spell the name of the team that they are playing. FYI you mental giants, it is S-T-A-N-F-O-R-D, not StanDford. How much money do you want to lose hick? I will give you the 6 1/2 points. How much?

    Some of you need to accept the fact that you're not the smartest guys in the room.
