Mavric Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 HOL guessing the following: Ohio State v Northwestern Iowa v Indiana Minnesota v Wisconsin (earlier game was cancelled) Maryland v Michigan State (earlier game was cancelled) Michigan v Purdue (neither team might be able to play so this way they only lose one game this weekend) Rutgers v Nebraska (NU has already played Illinois and Penn State) Illinois v Penn State Makes pretty good sense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Caveman Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Rutgers would be a great matchup. The thought of a potential 4-4 season gets me excited. 2 Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Rutgers in Lincoln, giving Vedral a chance to start a game at home, would be nice. 2 Quote Link to comment

I don't understand the comment about Illinois. Illinois is in our division. Quote Link to comment

Darn it. I'm done saying NU "should have won" this game or that game. Yes, NU had great opportunities to beat both Northwestern and Iowa, but didn't get it done. 1 Quote Link to comment

Because you are what your record says you are. 1 Quote Link to comment

Minnesota and Wisconsin are also in the same division as well as Maryland and Michigan State. So it's likely not going to be exclusively cross-divisional games. But when you get down to the bottom four teams, setting it up that way would avoid rematches. It's probably obvious that they would go with the cross-divisional matchups but just added for clarity.

Mavric Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Originally it seemed like the Huskers would host Rutgers because the Huskers have only had three home games while Rutgers has had four. But apparently the East was supposed to get four home games and Rutgers has finals next week (NU's semester is over) so they are lobbying to host. Sounding like they're going to win.

Do you know why the East was supposed to get to host 5 out of 7 possible games? 1 Quote Link to comment
