  1. Who claimed winning and winning championships wouldn't require a rebuild? Well .... Eichorst for starters. Do tell? I don't recall him saying "We want to win and win now, no rebuild will be necessary with the next guy I hire" I'm sure you can find a way to semantic it but: Link I think you quoted the wrong part, nowhere did that say a rebuild was unecessary. Like I said, I'm sure you'll find a way to semantic it. Technically he didn't say that, you're right. But why would a rebuild be necessary if we already had the talent to win championships?
  2. Ha! Before I started, I thought I should get it set up in a spreadsheet to keep track of the match-ups. But it was too late and I was too lazy. So I was just doing it one team at a time. When I got to Iowa, they already had all their tough games stacked in one year and I didn't want to take the time to fix it. I was going to look at who you had them playing - since they only win when they have a very weak schedule. As I type this I just noticed - no divisions. Who plays in the CCG? Do the top 2 teams play just like the *gulp* Big 12 will next year? EDIT - Never mind I reread post #1 Yeah, the no divisions is pretty much the "out of the box" way to look at it. Really seems to make sense to me. Protect the biggest rivalries while maintaining a pretty balanced schedule and still get to play everyone at least every other year. I really haven't come up with a down-side yet.

  8. Pretty similar. I originally wanted to put Nebraska with Michigan State but I tried to spread things out a little more so it wasn't so much the top teams playing each other and the bottom teams playing each other. My top 6/7 generally have two other "top" teams and one "lesser" team which I thought helped with to balance the schedule.

  10. I'm still kind of sold on the 16-team, 4-pod conference scheduling idea. But this is a pretty interesting idea for 14 teams. There's still a little issue with parity but with three permanent opponents, you can balance the top teams out pretty well. I started out by preserving all the trophy games except that we'll only get to play for the $5 Bits of Broken Chair Trophy every-other year. Then you play five teams one year and the remaining five teams the next year. You play every team every other year and play every team both home and away every four years. The two best teams play in the Conference Championship Game. Seems pretty slick. Here's my thoughts on how to do it in the B1G: Permanent Opponents: Nebraska - Iowa, Wisconsin, Northwestern Ohio State - Illinois, Michigan, Penn State Michigan - Michigan State, Minnesota, Ohio State Michigan State - Indiana, Penn State, Michigan Penn State - Maryland, Michigan State, Ohio State Wisconsin - Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska Iowa - Minnesota, Nebraska, Wisconsin Northwestern - Illinois, Nebraska, Maryland Minnesota - Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin Indiana - Michigan State, Purdue, Rutgers Maryland - Penn State, Rutgers, Northwestern Rutgers - Maryland, Indiana, Purdue Illinois - Northwestern, Ohio State, Purdue Purdue - Illinois, Indiana, Rutgers You could do the alternating year opponents about however you wanted but it could look something like this (if I don't screw anything up too badly): Even Year Opponents: Nebraska - Ohio State, Minnesota, Illinois, Maryland, Indiana Ohio State - Nebraska, Iowa, Northwestern, Rutgers, Purdue Michigan - Iowa, Penn State, Maryland, Purdue, Indiana Michigan State - Wisconsin, Iowa, Northwestern, Illinois, Maryland Penn State - Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Purdue, Rutgers Wisconsin - Michigan State, Penn State, Illinois, Maryland, Indiana Iowa - Odd Year Opponents: Nebraska - Michigan State, Michigan, Purdue, Penn State, Rutgers Ohio State - Michigan State, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Maryland, Indiana Michigan - Nebraska, Wisconsin, Northwestern, Illinois, Rutgers Michigan State - Nebraska, Ohio State, Minnesota, Purdue, Rutgers Penn State - Nebraska, Michigan, Northwestern, Illinois, Indiana Wisconsin - Ohio State, Michigan, Northwestern, Rutgers, Purdue Iowa -
