Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

In fact I have even seen multiple OSU fans suggest that OSU should start playing Nebraska every year, as if that is not already a thing. They already have what they are clamoring for, but are seemingly too dense to connect the dots.

well, they're probably truck drivers

I know people don't get it, because we want to be "fair" or something, but the conference can just let us have our fixed crossover without needing the rest of you guys to do it.

I recognize that people probably look at it like somehow we're benefiting by our fixed crossover being a "weak" team... But so be it. Not like Purdue and IU are going to be playing that crossover game wondering which team will lose its undefeated record.

We know we're on the bottom of the totem pole. Let us have our little piddly bucket game at the conference's kids table and we'll try to stay out of your way.

I just assumed it would make something jagged with the scheduling layout across many years. 

That said, if someone concocted a nice rotation that kept IU-Purdue, which has to be kept, I'm all for it. If someone whines "it's not fair," they can go kick rocks. It's not fair IU and Purdue are stuck in a state with a history of poor talent that's somehow also over-recruited and has Notre Dame, but that's CFB. 

One thing I've always about, what if you had a straight rotation, but installed an exemption that if you had a rivalry, it could be a non-conference game placed where tradition dictates? Like the SEC ditches crossovers, but moves things around so UT and Bama can play that one weekend.

That WV-Pitt-Penn St trio had some moonshiney spirit to it, didn't they?

Hmmm. Not that I know of.

For Iowa:

1. Notre Dame
2. Air Force

Notre Dame was a traditional rival, but only old people remember it. Air Force because my brother-in-law and sister live in Colorado Springs, and it would be a great annual event. I would like to see Iowa play a service academy occasionally. Iowa played Air Force once in the 1950s right after the academy opened. I don't think they played another service academy, unless it was Iowa Pre-Flight during WW-II. Not sure that would even qualify.


For FSU:

1. Notre Dame
2. Iowa State
3. Purdue
4. Wisconsin
5. Minnesota
6. Northwestern

More opportunities to see the 'Noles play in the Midwest.

West Virginia initially was just Virginia.  They then seceded, which we're told was bad.

Sort of interesting history, Robert E. Lee's first campaign was into the mountainous mud of WV and was a failure.

The mountainous portions of NC/SC/GA were not slave holders and generally not in favor of secession.  My Dad told me our relatives hid out in the mountains wanting nothing to do with the fight.  The county in which he was born is called Union County, but perhaps not a reflection of that.

I suspect I would have hid in the mountains as well.

We know we're on the bottom of the totem pole. Let us have our little piddly bucket game at the conference's kids table and we'll try to stay out of your way.

That's the same line you guys sold Urbz in'18

my order:

1)  OU - long history.  Hated yet respected the program

2)  Miami - easy to dislike

3)  Colorado - easier to dislike

4)  Missouri - close proximity and long history

5)  Washington - off and on history, great place to visit
