Teams
Purdue Boilermakers
Entering the final week of the regular season, Iowa, Purdue, and Illinois were in contention for the West division title. Iowa would have been able to clinch with a win, but was upset by Nebraska, giving Purdue the opportunity to clinch the berth with a win. Purdue beat in-state rivals Indiana 30–16 to clinch the division title and their first Big Ten Championship Game appearance in program history.[1]
Michigan Wolverines
Entering the final week of the regular season, Michigan and Ohio State both had undefeated conference records at 8–0 going into the 2022 edition of The Game in Columbus, thus making the game a de facto East division championship. Michigan won the game 45–23, outscoring the Buckeyes 28–3 in the second half, and clinched the division title for the second consecutive season.[2]
