I know there are very few Rich Rod fans here, but I'm wondering if Brian Kelly wins 7 or 8 games this year -- bringing in an offensive system that his players weren't recruited for -- does that make Rodriguez look even worse? Theoretically, Kelly's job should be tougher because Charlie Weiss's teams were mediocre at best compared to Carr's teams.

Originally posted by Mainevent View PostOk, that makes it a lot better. Though, UM plays OSU each year while MSU gets Indiana? Not exactly an even playing field outside the division.Rashean Mathis: "I'm an egg guy. Last year we didn't have (the omelet station). I didn't complain, but I was dying inside."

Originally posted by nhwbrooklyn View PostWell this kind of already happens to a degree, for example, MSU doesn't play OSU this year... but guaranteeing Indiana does take it a step further. Another reason I think teams with no natural cross division rival shouldn't have one.
Michigan vs Ohio State ever mattered. Right now Ohio State is every Big Ten team's game-of-year rival, tradition or not, just as it has been with Michigan in the past.

Originally posted by flash50 View PostI tend to agree but as stated earlier some of these so-called division rivals have always been bogus. When you get away from the regional focus to a national one, only

Originally posted by flash50 View PostLike it or not, it is the "signature game for the conference". Money, power, tradition,
history, you name it, it rates until the fan bases and alumni don't make it relevant
anymore. It will always be protected at the expense of others.Rashean Mathis: "I'm an egg guy. Last year we didn't have (the omelet station). I didn't complain, but I was dying inside."

Originally posted by nhwbrooklyn View PostThats just it though... 5 fake rivalries are unnecessary. They could have their game protected without that nonsense. Those fake rivalries are costing teams a cross division game and that means it will be that much longer before certain teams ever play each other again (and every big ten team has a pretty rich history playing every other big ten team as they have been doing it for so long).I made baseball as fun as doing your taxes!
