I wonder how many bowl games will happen.

I wonder how many will think "That was not nearly enough."

In lieu of a 16-team playoff, just give me 8 bowl games, total, every year.  Each one would be a big deal.  Each one would signify a good season. 
This is a chance to fix this one thing this year and going forward.

If Michigan can magically get better the day after THE GAME was to have taken place, then the IN teams should be able to as well.

Due to the cancellation of the Purdue-Indiana football game on Friday evening, Nebraska's game at Rutgers has been moved to 6:30 PM (CT) on Friday. The game was originally scheduled for 3 PM.

Friday's game will still be shown nationally on the Big Ten Network with radio coverage on the Husker Sports Network.

this is good

I'm visisting my daughter that just graduated from UNL on Thursday and Friday

I was wondering about watching the game in Lincoln and then staying another night Friday, but now I can leave Lincoln around 4pm and be home or near home by kickoff!

Bummer.  I was looking forward to some payback after last year's offensive shitshow at the Big House.
