I also can see the Big Ten moving the CCC around after 2024,  which might help grow interest.  Las Vegas, Pasedena, The Bears new indoor stadium, etc.  All good candidates for future games.

Agreed.  If you're a CFP reg, you can't keep zipping around for 3 neutral site games.

I don't think I have any interest in attending this game.  I've attended all ccg but two to date.
tickets will be cheap

I actually doubt that.  Iowa fans will keep the demand high.

Hawk fans travel very well and Indy is easily drivable, but...

after 42-3 two seasons ago I don't think nearly as many will travel

FWIW:
PSU's B1G-W opponents have clinched a better record than the Wolverines' and Buckeyes' opponents. 

Thus, if the Nittany Lions had managed to beat Michigan the Wolverines would be facing B1GCG elimination in the MSU/PSU game in Detroit on Friday.

Interesting how that worked out even though it doesn't matter now. 

It ended up being better to play Iowa NW, ILL instead of playing Minn, Wisc, Neb.   Or something like that.  I forgot the exact teams.

Early in the season I thought Ohio State's opponents would EASILY win this but it ended up not even being close with PSU's opponents clinching.  It doesn't matter since PSU lost but here they are:
PSU:
  • 6-2 Iowa
  • 3-5 Illinois
  • 4-4 Northwestern
  • 13-11 total
This weekend IL plays NU so that takes PSU to 14-12 (one will win, the other will lose) and means that their best/worst are:
  • 15-12 best
  • 14-13 worst


Ohio State:

  • 2-6 Purdue
  • 3-5 Minnesota
  • 4-4 Wisconsin
  • 9-15 total
This weekend MN plays UW so that takes tOSU to 10-16 and means their best/worst are:
  • 11-16 best
  • 10-17 worse

Michigan:
  • 2-6 Purdue
  • 3-5 Minnesota
  • 3-5 Nebraska
  • 8-16 total
None of Michigan's play each other this weekend so their best/worst are:
  • 11-16 best
  • 8-19 worst

Penn State's opponents will finish a MINIMUM of three games better than either tOSU's or Michigan's.
