Big Ten changes rules to allow Ohio State to compete for Big Ten Championship

Well, in perhaps the least surprising news of the day, Ohio State Football will be heading to the Big Ten Championship after the Big Ten Conference changed their own rules to allow the Buckeyes to face off against Northwestern on Dec. 19.

Ohio State is currently 5-0, and was slated to miss their sixth game of the season against Michigan due to COVID-19 issues, which should have disqualified them from the title game until the rules were changed to allow them in.

Northwestern is 5-1 with their one loss coming to, of course, Michigan State.
