    Nebraska and Oklahoma need to reunite. Nebraska doesn't belong in the B1G any more than Rutgers does.

    The obvious move is kick out Nebraska and Notre Dame might finally wise up. Pedo fits. Maryland, meh, though I'd rather have Pitt. For the NYC area my dream would be Army and come to think of with with Army just replace Maryland with Navy.

      I'm 99% certain Nebraska's antics are all for show to feed their fans that they're doing everything they can to play and gosh darn it, it's just not their fault. But that 1% chance that it's not...god I'd love to see them fail epically by jumping back to the Big XII. It would be proof once and for all that they're just a crappier SEC school that happens to be north of the Mason Dixon line. Football has been king there for 75 years, but it'd be absolute proof that the tail is wagging the dog and that football takes precedence over everything else at the university. Because throwing away membership in the CIC and the billions in research grants that funnels through there over a football season? They'd be the farking laughingstock of academia.

      • Yeah I know it is a pipedream...but it makes me happy to think about :-)

        Honestly though it is better for my squad if they stay because they will never be a consistent winner in the Big Ten. And Scott Frost may be a good coach when he has all of Florida to recruit but Nebraska doesnt have the cache and his attitude is just awful. The days of Dr. Tom using Prop 48 and a bunch of criminals to run roughshod over the Big 8 or the Big 12 West are long gone.

        • Iowa football parents seek answers and restoration of fall football in letter to Big Ten. I get it. Football is super important. But what I don't get is the rabid stupidity:


          Nikkie Britt, the Indianapolis-based mother of second-year Iowa offensive lineman Justin Britt, doesn’t understand why her 5-year-old daughter and 19-year-old son can attend in-person classes, but her son cannot play football.
          Maybe because your 5 year old daughter and 19 year old son can wear masks and do at least a little social distancing while attending classes, neither of which are possible playing college football. And that is even allowing that in-person classes are safe, something that may not be true in lots of places. But nowhere will it be safe to play football if even one player on either side of the ball has coronavirus. Because of the methods of transmission, it would literally be safer to play against someone HIV positive than it would be to play against someone with Covid-19.

          What this "loving mother" wonders about is like asking why I can shoot you with a water pistol and that's OK, but if I shoot you with my Glock-19 that is bad.

          When did Americans get so mother fvcking stupid and selfish?

          Frankly, I say let them play football. Give every athlete waiver to sit out a year and transfer to a smarter school if they desire with no loss of eligibility and be immediately eligible to play when that player feels it is safe to do so, and let the ones who are too stupid to know otherwise play. Isolate them entirely from the rest of the students. Let the virus run rampant through the football complex. I'll even watch them play. I'll throw 5h!t at my TV when Brian Kelly decides a fade to the corner of the endzone from the 15 when all you needed was a field goal to win is a smart call, or throwing 50 times in a monsoon is a good game plan just like I've been doing for the last 20+ years. I'll enjoy the entertainment, and if some players or coaches get sick and die, I won't give the first d am n.

            • Also, you’re framing it wrong. She’s not stupid because she doesn’t understand football can’t be played socially distanced.

              She’s stupid because she’s not asking why the hell her 5yo is going to school during an uncontrolled, deadly national epidemic

              • UNC is going to full remote classes after multiple outbreaks and their COVID dorm was almost at full capacity after four days.

                ND is going two weeks full remote and will reevaluate after multiple outbreaks.

                Does this spell the end for ACC football? Of course not. Student-athletes may stay on campus and practices will continue.

                • Mack Brown said it will help their players...probably because no one will notice they arent taking any classes.

                  I think the Big Ten would get less crap if they showed the players and parents all the information that lead to the decision.

                  • Well of course it helps them, it gets them closer to a bubble. But if you can’t even hold classes, it seems ridiculous to have athletics.

                      It is beyond ridiculous, but such is the shamelessness of modern college athletics.

                      • It's been a while since I've done an athletic department post since news of dropping sports turned more to cancellations around July, but it appears another hockey team received the unfortunate call.

                        Alaska-Anchorage says it will eliminate hockey after this season, along with gymnastics and skiing. Sorry, jim.

                          Even without Covid there always seemed to be simmering worry about a couple of programs. I fear this won't be the only shoe that drops.

                            • Ugh. Glad we got up to Sullivan when we had a chance. Amazing, amazing, amazing trip.

                              Easily top three hockey trip I’ve ever made. That includes Philly 0.6, Tampa 2016, Gophers at the Garden, Boston. So many others.

                              Sad, sad day for me.
