Your 2013 BIG SIXTEEN Rivalry Week Schedule

[EastLosRandy]

(*Obviously, this is all rampant speculation here, but an amusing way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon. I think the main theme of this is just what an awesome line-up the Big Ten could come up with if they consider rivalries carefully in the likely future stages of the expansion process. This includes the additional teams I'd like to see added, assuming Texas doesn't happen and we go to 16. Very interested in how other folks might envision our rivalry week.*)

Yeah, I just keep thinking that Iowa Minny rivalry will be the last game for us.

I actually think Iowa and Nebby should be the Big Ten opener. There should be an annual fair sponsored by the Corn Growers association. With a John Deere sponsored tractor pull, hail bail throwing contests, grilling contests (turkey legs, and pork tenderloins.) Just a massive festival-like atmosphere to kick off the Big Ten season. Why compete against all the rivarly games, when you can have the stage all to yourself?
