Michigan had a chance to make the whole issue of their appearance or not moot a couple of weeks ago.

The difference in a bowl game is a neutral field. Ohio State was at home. That is usually worth about three points. The difference in the game.

Well, by that logic we should change the rules of the NCAA to say any home win (not just in the case of UM vs OSU) does not count if won by 3 or less by the home team.

The best solution is a playoff, but even the selection process for that might be unperfect if they choose a very limited number of teams.
