this was Alabama at 5-0 , the SEC would change rules to get them in too .

Possible, though not very probable. I can’t argue it, only disagree. I don’t have any more solid data than you, simply a different opinion. But the SEC set a 10 game conference schedule so if Alabama were only at 60% of games played, I doubt it.

they stuck to the rule and Ohio St played Iowa next week while IU /NWtern played in the big ten championship ,Ohio St would still go t0 6-0 and make it to the CFP as a non -big ten champion .

Which is probably what should be given the opportunity to occur. The B10 screwed their own pooch by sitting on the fence and not being willing to play, then having a late start to a drastically shortened season and giving no chance for a postponement.

The rule of 6 games isn’t wrong... it ensures the CONFERENCE CHAMPION played a minimum of 75% of its games before being crowned. All member institutions should be held to the same standard.

But at least we can agree it is pandering.
