This failed so miserably last week, let's do it again!

#1 Ohio State (8-2) - #5 Purdue, #2 Michigan State
#2 Michigan State (7-3) - #12 Penn State, @#1 Ohio State
#3t Wisconsin (7-4) - @#8 Minnesota
#3t Michigan (7-4) - @#10 Nebraska, #5 Illinois
#5t Indiana (6-6) - #5 Illinois
#5t Illinois (5-5) - @#5 Indiana, @#3 Michigan
#5t Purdue (5-5) - @#1 Ohio State, #9 Northwestern
#8t Minnesota (5-6) - #3 Wisconsin
#8t Iowa (5-6) - @#9 Northwestern
#9 Northwestern (4-6) - #8 Iowa, @#5 Purdue
#10 Nebraska (3-8) - #3 Michigan, @#12 Penn State
#11 Penn State (2-9) - @#2 Michigan State, #11 Nebraska

My desired outcomes:
Purdue needs to lose at Ohio State
A Penn State miracle at Michigan State would help tighten things up
Michigan needs to fail at Nebraska
Wisconsin needs to go down
NW needs to beat Iowa
Illinois vs. Indiana is really the only toss up. I root for Illinois in this one.
Michigan State needs to lose at Ohio State
Nebraska at PSU doesn't matter
Illinois should lose at Michigan
NW needs to beat Purdue

The standings one week from this moment COULD look like this:
#1 Ohio State (10-2)
#2 Michigan (8-5)
#3t Wisconsin (7-5)
#3t Michigan State (7-5)
#5t Minnesota (6-6)
#5t Purdue (6-6)
#5t Illinois (6-6)
#5t Northwestern (6-6)
#9 Indiana (6-7)
#10 Iowa (5-7)
#11t Nebraska (4-8)
#11t Penn State (4-8)
 

Too complicated for me. All know is we will beat the skunks!
 

Weird. Start the week tied for 8th. We lose our only game and finish the week tied for 7th...
 


For seeding in the conference tournament, do they use head to head performance in the event of a tie? If not, what is the tie-breaking criteria?
