[Husker] B1G Realignment

[Jay Schlechte]

I don't see how that can happen if the conference truly values competitive
balance.  That just looks ugly with one or two games that appear
interesting versus 3-4 every year with PSU, MU and MSU dropping off and
being replaced by UW...

Lousy move if it happens.

GBR,

Jay
