Title: Big Ten Releases 9 Game Conference Schedule Post by: Marshal Dillon on July 11, 2013, 09:51:58 PM Yeah, OSU & Michigan will end up picking up football powers like Indiana, Minnesota, Iowa, Purdue, Northwestern, & Illinois.
:eyeroll: Quote The Big Ten, which moves to a nine-game conference schedule in 2016, announced the first of the expanded slates for 2016 and 2017. http://www.sportingnews.com/ncaa-football/story/2013-07-11/big-ten-releases-2016-2017-nine-game-conference-schedules Title: Re: Big Ten Releases 9 Game Conference Schedule Post by: cbbama99 on July 12, 2013, 08:10:33 AM The only thing that would help the Big Ten's schedule is if they played all non-conference games.

Who cares. The Big Irrelevant League. When was the last big game that league won? :dunno: Title: Re: Big Ten Releases 9 Game Conference Schedule Post by: Marshal Dillon on July 12, 2013, 08:51:24 PM :yawn: Who cares.

Their 9th game will more than likely be a cupcake like Indiana, Minnesota, Purdue, etc. In the SEC, the 9th game will likely be someone like Georgia, USC, Florida, Alabama, LSU, Texas A&M, or even Auburn or Ole Miss. Gigantic difference in talent from them to us. I think Saban is making a HUGE mistake by pushing for a 9 game SEC schedule.
