Dogs In A Pile Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 It will be interesting how this all shakes out. A lot of moving parts between the potential alliance and the CFP format. Quote Link to comment
nic Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I like the pod idea. We need two more teams now. Quote Link to comment

Red Five Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin are a good grouping to play each other every year. Ditto Illinois, Northwestern, Indiana, and Purdue. Then figure out some sort of grid with Ohio St, Michigan, Michigan St, Penn St, Maryland, and Rutgers. Quote Link to comment

My thoughts exactly when I read the story. We'll see how random it really is when they assign us OSU right off the start. Quote Link to comment

With 14 teams, how does it work to create scheduling pods, because 14 isn't easily divided other than by 7, which is basically a division. Unless the pods for each team are different for each team in the pod, meaning NU would play 2 out of the 3 from Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. Quote Link to comment

In this example, Wisc and Iowa have the same 3 opponents, but Nebraska and Minnesota have a different 4th opponent. You could keep the 4 western together, 4 central together, then have the other 6 each have different permanent games between them. 1 Quote Link to comment

84HuskerLaw Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Very good but really Trev should just forget fixing the stadium and just go all Road Warriors! No more issues with drunken fans. Cleaning up those beer cans, poopsi cups, pizza pie boxes, balloons polluting the Atlantic, traffic jams around Lincoln, wear and tear in roads, gas wasted, etc etc. If we can’t kick Bama and Buckeye a$$ on the road every week-end, we don’t deserve to even have a football team. After all, Neb fans are spoiled brats that stupidly think things ought be fair! Enough crybaby stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment
