that makes sense. I guess I was just looking at it from the perspective that you would have more teams that you play every year. But you are probably right. and for my own selfish reasons I was just looking for a way to let Nebraska continue playing PSU every year. I really dont want that game to go away.

I like this set-up I think it would bode well. I like the concept of even divisions and looking at these every team would have won their division once in the past 20 years or so except Minnesota, Indiana and maybe Rutgers. Indiana, with all due respect, will not win any division combination we come up with, Minnesota went 10-3 in 2003(so did Iowa and Nebraska), and Rutgers should be able to compete in their division. It keeps the, lets call it "mission statement" of almost every team. GIT,UVA, UNC. in division with familiar schools PSU. is in a division with the east coast teams they have been looking for OSU. stays in a division with ann arbor RU. in a division with traditional Big Ten teams that they know with Big fanbases Sparty. stays in a division with ann arbor ann arbor. stays with familiar schools Illinois,Purdue,Indiana, Northwestern. they all stay with rivals in the division which should have the most parody Nebraska. Gets much easier road trips for fans, burgeoning rivalry with Wisky and don't remain isolated from the eastern and southern portion of the league. Minnesota. gets rivals Floyd and Axe plus Nebraska. Iowa. Gets all their rivals Wisky. Same as Nebraska with both their traditional Big Ten rivals And with 6 extra Big Ten games to schedule we can rotate teams pretty easily. OSU can play RU, Sparty and ann arbor every year plus say GIT, PSU, PU, Illinois, Nebraska and Minnesota for a home and home and then switch for two years so we really won't be going more than two years without playing everyone. Which is like the Big Ten before expansion. And my idea for the 9th Big Ten game which could be played at a neutral site would be to give the option to team with 5 home games to decide which one of the five they don't want at home so say Nebraska has OSU, PSU, Iowa, UVA and RU at home. The AD chooses which one they want to play outside of Lincoln. That way they get to keep what they deem to be the sexiest matchups at home for the fans. I had a very similar thought about divisions. This might get too complicated but I also had a thought that maybe each team would have a protected crossover from each of the other divisions. For example Nebraska would play the 3 teams in their division and Illanois, OSU and PSU every year (i just picked those teams randomly). Then the other teams we didnt play would be rotated like normal. So essentially each team would have 6 conference oponents that they always play and if/when we go to a 9 game schedule we would be able to rotate the rest of the teams home and away on a 6 year cycle. hope this made some kind of sense.

with all the uncertainty do you really even trust whatever decision he makes today? February is a long way away.

I have season tickets in section 22 row 7 and they are incredible. I have never had any issues with seeing over the people on the sideline

thats kind of creepy. just sayin...

It will all depend on our line (on both sides). Since Suh left our d-line has been average at best, and there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that our o-line will be any better this year than they have been the last few years. I want to win titles too but I really dont see it happening in the near future. signed, debbie downer.

I thought everything they said was spot on.

i think its mizzou, mizzou, and mizzou but not in that order

so is there actually something to get excited about this time? or could this be another one of the Architects false alarms?

has anyone figured out what Rose's big signing day surprise is yet?

I bet all 27 of my posts that curry is N

Im REALLY glad it doesn't say HyVee all over it.

have you looked a penn state's remaining schedule?

one time, I ate 13 tacos

I saw that but Rose said Jordan's brother was going to see if he could get him a ticket. It didnt sound like it was set in stone yet, but good news either way.

Tell your friend, we know who he is and we are cancelling his membership for sharing such info!!!! Just kidding, but "a freind" also sent me a very similar email.... actually it was the exact same email word for word. Both of your "friends" ought to learn how to keep things to themselves. maybe your friend should.

Pre-game, you definitely have to stop at Sandy's and get some elk creek water.

just a random thought I had, how about every time NU plays PSU both teams wear their home uniforms? just look at the uni's side by side. it would look incredible and give the series a unique feel. anyway, it was just a thought.

Did a reliable or trusted source tell you this or a Joe Schmo in the juice aisle? I hope you're right...big bucks, whammies! it was someone that I certainly trust.

+2 We must have the same source

I was told this morning that Watson, Sanders, and Gilmore are all out. It was supposed to go down tomorrow but this announcement from Indiana totally screwed things. I was also told that Beck and Scott Frost could potentially be our new co-offensive coordinators. I realize most of you wont trust a random unknown poster like me but thats what I was told.

didnt OU beat texas?

yep. apparently he committed last night along with santos little brother
