UW-MU game on CBS
« on: July 28, 2014, 07:50:15 PM »
If you are college football junkie like me, you are a bit sad when the UW-MU game falls on the first Saturday of December, on "Championship Saturday"

The UW-MU game will be at 11:30am at the Bradley Center before the SEC Championship on CBS!

Well, all that matters that day is what time Michigan plays for the Big 10 Title

You have a good shot, but certainly a tougher one.  The Badgers have essentially a layup each year in their division...whatever the heck they call those divisions nowadays.  Not close to the gauntlet that the east is.

Actually, it's between Wisky and the Huskers for that division.  The Big 10/11/12/14 really screwed up in dividing the teams into the East and West Divisions.

Nebraska winning the big 10. Ha. Nice traditional league.

Can't wait till Rutgers wins the basketball championship.

Still think it is a layup.  Not sold on Nebraska.

A team in the east that has to deal with Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State is far tougher, year in and year out, IMO.

Pretty much all the schools wanted it.  No one really liked the previous set up.

Yeah, it makes geographic sense.  My point is in terms of strength of programs.  Now you have a majority of solid programs beating up on each other.  Will lead to mediocrity as good programs will not do well yEar after year.

The Marquette/Wisconsin has fallen on the first Saturday of December for many years now. It will again next year......so there is no reason to be sad.
December is for basketball anyways.

Equally likely that is the day Michigan starts their next coaching search.

Not always. It's how the calendar falls. Last time in Milwaukee in 2012 it was the 2nd weekend.

The problem is that you had a bunch of conflicting interests that pretty much necessitated a geographic split.

**Penn State want to play out east.
**Ohio State and Penn State want to play every year
**Michigan and Ohio State want to play every year (obviously)
**Michigan and Michigan State want to play every year.

So you can accomplish this by having a "protected" inter-division rivalry each year.  (The SEC does this with 14 teams.)  The conference is doing this now with Purdue and Indiana in separate divisions.

They could have put Michigan and Michigan State in the west, protected the Michigan / Ohio State game, put Northwestern and Purdue in the east, and then protect the Northwestern / Illinois game.

But in the end I think they simply thought that a geographic split was best.

Just pointing out that the geographic split is silly from a competitive standpoint in FB.  But, then, this is the league that came up with "legends" and "Leaders"... ;)

Eh, they could have easily split Michigan or Michigan State into the west in exchange for Purdue and protecting everything and had a better competitive balance.  I think this was just lazy planning and not wanting to make a "tough" decision.  It will hurt the conference as a whole because PSU, OSU, Michigan, and MSU will beat each other up practically assuring no one undefeated comes out of the east.  Then Wisconsin has a cake walk in the west, but the SOS will be so weak as to be inconsequential.

I think the lazy thing would have been to put Rutgers or Maryland in different divisions....or the same division and moving one school out of it.  But I don't think that a major conference, especially one like the B10 who systematically plans out everything, is just going to say "well whatever" and do things that are easy. 

One thought I have is that they did this to maximize their television value just before the new television contracts.  This way they have arguably some of their marquee television games guaranteed to happen every year.

There is definitely some validity to what you say, and I agree that perhaps lazy is the wrong word.  I think it's better to say they sacrificed long term for short term and expediency.

What they agreed to does boast TV value because of all the guaranteed match-ups in the East(I'm thinking a 80-20 split on interdivision prime time match-ups with east getting 80) and it also satisfied all the immediate demands of the individual schools.  However, I think it does nothing to protect the long term health of the conference.

They better help the teams in the west start getting better or the conference could take a downturn from a competitive standpoint.  Short of an apocalypse I don't see how the B1G isn't the leading revenue monster for the next 20 years.

Apparently, CBS wants to highlight a lop-sided 'rivarly'

If 2014 is a down year, we're still playing in our place.

There's emotion and history and perhaps even blood on the floor. There's ole man Hughes and Al expressing themselves. There's the fact that we owned the Badgers for years. There's the fact that Becky is a very good team this year while we have some proving to do.

Should be a good game. Go Warriors!

Exactly!  This is a rivalry where you throw out the rankings.  Don't think many expected us to comfortably beat them in '11-'12 when we were @Madison (ranked #9) and JC was suspended for the game.  We will certainly be underdogs, but we're at the BC, so anything can happen.

So if the MU/UW game goes into multiple overtimes will they stay with our game rather than switching over to the SEC championship?  I'd love to see the reaction in SEC country (even though my wife is a LSU grad).
