Big Ten rules blamed for Rose Bowl chaos
Regis McAuley argues the Rose Bowl selection mess stemmed from unclear Big Ten rules. He notes how the Western Athletic Conference handles tie scenarios, contrasts with Oregon State and Arizona State’s Fiesta Bowl path, and highlights the Michigan Ohio State game as a pivotal factor in the disputed decision. He cites coach Bo Schembechler and Michigan State’s Burt Smith, calling the process a political vote and urging pregame rule clarity.
