[Husker] Big Ten Scheduling

[RJ Wessel]

I can see it divided into 4 - 4 team divisions. You would play the 3 other teams in your division every season and the 2 from the other 3 divisions. That gives a 9 game conference schedule.  I can't see anyone wanting more than that and still do a meaningful out of confernce game. 

The down side is there is always that chance of 4 undefeated teams then and how to tie break those

In the Big Ten this would play hell with the old traditional games, but hey, isn't it better to play as many of the schools as possible to REALLY determine the conference championship.

That would mean no out-of-conference games.  I don't see that happening.
