Weird it seems they're not doing divisions and I had figured playing the LA schools every year.
Conference said they didn't want to protect too many match-ups because then there wouldn't be enough rotation between all the schools. We get a SoCal team every year but not both.
Have they said this? Hope so. I see Iowa listed with 3 protected matches but west coast 4 only 1 each. I guess EWIWBI.
"The guaranteed annual protected matchups are Illinois-Northwestern, Illinois-Purdue, Indiana-Purdue, Iowa-Minnesota, Iowa-Nebraska, Iowa-Wisconsin, Maryland-Rutgers, Michigan-Michigan State, Michigan-Ohio State, Minnesota-Wisconsin, Oregon-Washington and UCLA-USC."
I'm happy to see those fags from nike have to play both Ohio St and Mich in 2024. I thought that trustfund money would have influenced a easier schedule.
I know this is sacrilege around HCH (it's three words to me/fu), but I personally hope the Pac 4 go in dry on each of their Big games next season. Unlikely with Buck coming to Yuge, but still.
It would be a thing of beauty to listen to all those pasty white cheese heads moan and whine while asking aloud to nobody in particular, "why did we let these fuckers in here again?" I'm in Chicago - actually at Northwestern - for a few days, so I'm a bit on edge; not that the particular schools around here give a flying fuck one way or the other. UofChicago had the first Heisman - people forget - then dropped football, then re-emerged at DIII. They REALLY don't give a fuck. Northwestern hardly much better. And does Illinois even remember Dick Butkus? JFC.
Getting Michigan, Ohio St, and Washington the same year. Ty Thompson better be ready, because Oregon has some tough games next year. Fortunately, outside of UCLA, the rest of the schedule is pretty much BYE.
So in the 5 year period, we go to PSU, Indiana, Maryland, and Rutgers twice while we host Michigan, Northwestern, USC, and UCLA twice. All other B1G teams we do standard home and away

@Sandra6 was seen in Rosemont lobbying for this set up.

Yes I highlighted Rutgers.
