This is puzzling.

We know Delaney and his staff are geniuses...........(since we've been told), yet.....

Our 3 closest geographic rivals (Minny, Iowa, Wisky) are all just SINGLE games.

IIRC, this happened 2 years ago as well.

How can we foster rivalries when geography is not considered when schedules are produced?

BIG has a scheduling rule that you can't have a home and home against the same opponent 2 years in a row - so we couldn't have a home and home again next year (2015-16) with Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Maryland, Illinois.

#B1G hoops scheduling tidbit: This is second of a three-year rotation where teams can't have same home-&-home foe in consecutive years.

That explains it a bit (although it's still nonsensical)

But it doesn't account for the fact that we played a single vs Iowa at Iowa a year ago and will play a single vs Iowa at Iowa again next year. Shouldn't those be rotated for home sites?
