I'll take the under on wins for Wisconsin in 2024. Drew UM, PSU, and OSU all in the same year.
Ahh.. Hell, by 2024 Jim Leonhard will be UW head coach. 
Michigan will be coached by Jay Harbaugh. Penn State by Jay Paterno.
Ohio State will replace the Cleveland Browns in the NFL.

How selections happened per the Chicago Tribune.

"The ADs decided that for the next six-year schedule block (2022-27), the annual crossovers should be randomly assigned."

“The prevailing mood,” Big Ten Associate Commissioner Mike McComiskey said, “was that the group didn’t want us picking who was going to be good that far out; you don’t know.”

"When administrators met in Rosemont for spring meetings, two jars were placed on a table and school names were pulled from each until the six new annual crossover matchups were selected.

I just can't think of a worse way to pick a team that you have to play 6 years straight.

Having 10 conference games would be awesome!

Have  1 protected cross over you play every year, and 6 teams you play once every 2 years.  You could set up a simple 4 year rotation where you play every team at least twice.

I actually like the random draw as long as previous protected crossovers were excluded from happening.  That basically means that over a 36 year period (if this lasted that long), you'd split your time among all teams in the other division (outside of Purdue/Indiana).  Most the other division our traditional opponents and I don't want to just be scheduling ones considered at the top.

I am sorry this is not rocket science.  It can't be that hard to come up with a schedule where Indy and Purdue play every year and everybody else plays roughly an equal number of times in an 8 year period.
