M has the 4th highest standard deviation (20.18) - so assuming M is a full StD above what is expected M's record would be:
7-5 with additional wins over Wisconsin, Illinois and Purdue. Notre Dame and Michigan State would be close match-ups.
2 StD would yield: 9-3 with Iowa being a close match-up.
3 StD would give: 11-1 with OSU and PSU essentially being toss-ups and since M is the home team in both game - lets make it 12-0.
Using SAG which has M ranked the highest (35) - M would finish: 8-4 adding MSU and ND to the win column but losing @ Wisconsin.
M's lowest ranking is in the CSL (which admits it pretty much uses last season's record for their initial ranking) M wold finish 3-9 - only defeating EMU, Indiana and Delaware St.
M has the 21st largest spread between their highest and lowest ranking.
I also noticed that the CFRC calculations include their own ranking twice - so really there are only 27 or, counting their own, 28 rankings.

I didn't see where the ranking was done twice, but some of the rankings are put in twice because one is their true ranking and the other is the one they submit to the BCS (does not take margin of victory into account)
