There's a pretty good chance that Indiana and/or Minnesota can break Northwestern's record.

Indiana is a virtual lock to break that one. Minnesota - I wouldn't call them a lock to do it, but it's very likely.

It's also harder to break the streak without co-championships.

If we removed the CCGs...

2011 would flip from Wisconsin to Michigan State
2012 would flip from Wisconsin to Nebraska
2013 would add Ohio State as co-champs with Michigan State
2015 would flip from Michigan State to Iowa
2016 would add Ohio State as co-champs with Penn State
2017 would flip from Ohio State to Wisconsin

So in just 7 years, 4 would flip, 2 would add a co-champ, 1 (2014) stays the same.

That is a huge difference.  I pointed out in the original post that prior to the CG we averaged almost 1.5 Champions per year.  Looking at current droughts:
  • Indiana/Minnesota's 50 drought is since a three-way shared Championship also shared with Purdue.  
  • Purdue/Northwestern's 17 year drought is since a three-way shared Championship also shared with Michigan.  
  • Iowa/Michigan's 13 year drought is since a co-championship shared between those two.  

If we eliminated the CG's then:
  • Ohio State's zero year drought would grow to one year.  
  • Wisconsin's five year drought would shrink to zero years.  
  • Iowa's 13 year drought would shrink to two years.  
  • Michigan State's two year drought would grow to four years.  
  • Nebraska's seven year drought would shrink to five years.  

The "no CG" list is:
  • 0 seasons, Wisconsin
  • 1 season, 2017, Penn State
  • tie 1 season, 2017, Ohio State
  • 2 seasons, 2016-2017, Iowa
  • 4 seasons, 2014-2017, Michigan State
  • tie 4 seasons, 2014-2017, Rutgers
  • tie 4 seasons, 2014-2017, Maryland
  • 5 seasons, 2013-2017, Nebraska
  • 13 seasons, 2005-2017, Michigan
  • 16 seasons, 2002-2017, Illinois
  • 17 seasons, 2001-2017, Northwestern
  • 17 seasons, 2001-2017, Purdue
  • 50 seasons, 1968-2017, Indiana
  • 50 seasons, 1968-2017, Minnesota

I think it is extraordinarily likely that Indiana and Minnesota together will first tie, then surpass Northwestern's 58 year title drought.  My guess is that if we look at this again after the 2026 season:
  • Indiana/Minnesota will have 59 year droughts.  
  • Northwestern/Purdue will have 26 year droughts.  
  • Illinois will have a 25 year drought.

I dunno. I think NU might be able to crack the top of the West. Not sure if that means they can beat OSU though. They haven't done it since 2004, and before that, 1971. Not that those years matter, but still. Beating OSU, for any team, is a rough go.

I didn't realize the West champ was 0-4 since you guys got rid of the Legends and Leaders crap.  
The SEC West started out 1-6 in our CCG, and was behind 10-5 fifteen years in, but thanks to a recent 8-game streak, are now leading by 2.  

I wonder if wild, 5-10 year swings will be the norm moving forward.  I'll look at the PAC.

Hmm, the PAC North started out 6-0 before losing this past year.  Interesting.  

Things don't look good for the B10 West for at least 2 more years.....

I saw a woman with a  Michigan 2005 Rose Bowl shirt on yesterday.   Made me want to dig into my closet for a 1994 NC night shirt I catch my wife wearing from time to time.

More pieces are in place than usual for coach Pat Fitzgerald to go for a second consecutive high-end season at Northwestern.*
