Yeah Chicos.  The Big Ten is "stupid."  Good theory.

Did I miss something that turned this into a minor league football message board?

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.

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

FS1 sold some games to CBS/CBSSN.

I see, thanks.

Anyone know if Virginia Tech's basketball team also plays on CBS that Saturday?

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).

That would have to be tons of overtimes, since the SEC title game starts after 3pm.
