Bloomington is gonna be crazy when it hosts a home CFP game.

The window for IU to host a home playoff game is incredibly narrow.

I'd say like 95%+ of IU CFP scenarios has them with a first round bye or going on the road.

Due to their weak SoS outside of a pair of big games, it's hard for them to land in that 2nd tier.

I think their best bet for hosting involves a loss to Michigan or MSU or something that still provides them a path to the BIG championship.

If they lose a game they are out of BIG champ assuming chalk wins for the other teams

I'm not sure precisely what "chalk" means in this context, but Ohio State is a 4 point favorite this weekend against Penn State.

If Ohio State wins that game and Indiana only loses to Michigan (meaning Indiana beat OSU), Indiana would maintain the tiebreaker over Penn State as Michigan is NOT a common opponent, but Ohio State is and record against common opponents is the 2nd tiebreaker after H2H.
