can somebody please explain why we don't move our season back a week to start later, with a lot of these other big conferences? other than "tradition" of some sort, it fucking kills us every year, in the opinion polls and our layoff time. why not fix that?
and somebody get fucking Notre Dame in the Big 10 already, so we CAN have a conference title game, making our season end at the same time as the rest of the big conferences. yeah yeah, i know they won't, but their glory days of being an "independent" are long gone, along with that NBC contract. it could shore up our conference, once they do get back to being pretty good, and keep the Big 10 fresh in the pollsters/viewrs minds at the end of the season
