Hypothetically speaking, going into The Game if the standings look as such, does the loser of The Game go to the Rose Bowl?

East

  • Michigan 11-0 (8-0)
  • Ohio State 11-0 (8-0)

West 

  • Wisconsin 9-2 (5-2)
  • Nebraska 9-2 (5-2) - Loses to Ohio State and Wisconsin 

As it stands now the AP rankings have the Big Ten teams in the following order: 

2. Ohio State 

3. Michigan 

8. Nebraska 

10. Wisconsin 

Should the loser of The Game lose and is idle while Wisconsin goes to Indy as a top ten team and lose for the third time, does Ohio State/Michigan sneak pass Bucky in the rankings for the Rose Bowl Bid? As it stands now, ESPN has the loser of The Game in Pasadena. Possible redo of 2006.
