[Husker] Big 10 to increase number of league games.

[Steve Reichenbach]

The hints out of the B1G were trending the other way --- that the
poor of the conference might have to make up for the rich not
getting a sufficient slate of home games.

One suggestion that might make a difference is let the B1G teams
keep the TV money from non-conference games.  That would be incentive
for marque home-and-away matchups rather than doormat home games.

If a team gets skipped once because of 3 non competitive games - the landscape will shift. Prices will go up on tickets and donation levels, since we have one less game.
