Maybe, but methinks stub hub might see an uptick in activity
And how does Iowa admin. play into who they end up playing in the conference. I just know we play Nebraska every damn year and Huskers haven't won since 2014.
And I will say it again I still cant believe the hawks lost that 2014 game as they were kicking their butts but the hawks gave it away on big mistakes.
I am sorry, I would love to reply to your reply, but I don't read hieroglyphics. If you could de-code it for me I would be glad to take another stab at it.

OK... Iowa has nothing on most of the lower eschelon in the SEC and 12 academically.
Many Big schools could shame Iowa academic standards.
That is all.
Except for Martinez.

You seem to be worried or upset with my posts; I was trying to help you avoid the disgust.
I'm not worried about my soul, you definitely don't need to be.
I'm not really concerned about the administration's role in scheduling. I never mentioned it because I don't care who they do or don't schedule. They have very little say in it. The B1G takes care of that. 6 of those 9 are locked in every year anyway and ISU is locked in so there is basically little wiggle room there.
I just said that Iowa plays an easy schedule for KF to consistently win 7/8 games per year because the West is a weak division and they've been fortunate with crossovers thus far. Next year will certainly be different in regards to those 3 games. The rest of the schedule is like usual. Very manageable.

So, I think no matter how you divide things up, you are in the tougher division if you have Ohio St. in it.
Other than Indiana-Purdue, I don’t see the purpose of the 4 year lock on a cross game rival. Where I feel a little sympathy for Frost it’s that Nebraska is on a 4 year run of playing tOSU. I’d be really in favor of dropping those games and shuffling the pot more often and just protecting Indiana-Purdue.

Well we'll find out for sure next year, when I believe the schedule is very tough.
Maybe now, but back when Nebraska made their name it wasn't like that at all.
I know. Was just one of those games where you kind of knew how it was gonna go once it started to snowball.
Evidently SF doesn't like hoodies tho.
And you are a fan of what team????
Of course they'll show up. What else is there to do in Lincoln or in Nebraska on Saturdays?

Q: What are you going to have to do to modify your system to the Big Ten.
Frost: I'm hoping the Big Ten has to modify to us.
There was nothing I saw in his introductory press conference that eeked of arrogance or prima donna.
Confident. Yes.
Arrogant. No.
Lots of talk about hard work, dedication, unity, everything in place to succeed.
And then after talking about dedication and unity he went and coached UCF. He sent a contrary message to the players by his actions. That, I do take for arrogance. It was about him being able to beat an SEC team and stay unbeaten and "claim" a national championship.
As for his complaining about the future schedule. the quote from above:
2. Indiana is an historically weaker program. In fact, it is the worst program in Big Ten football historically.
3. Doesn't matter if he said/didn't say those things. Is it true that 11 of the 15 cross-over games are against the upper teams in the East and only 4 are against Indiana, Rutgers, and Maryland.
I'm not defending Frost. He has acted poorly at press conferences. He has thrown his players under the bus after claiming unity. He has not coached this team up from Riley. They look more like Tarzan but still play like Jane. There are things to criticize him about, but his introductory press conference or complaining about cross-over games from anonymous sources aren't.

1. I'm sure he did complain about the schedule. But when you're AD says publicly that Ohio State and Michigan are going to feel Nebraska chasing them soon, then ... best keep your mouth shut publicly at least. And for the record; the sources are anonymous.

Illinois should feel bad for blowing that game.
