Too funny, I literally just got done reading all of those because I realized I gave this magic tool called Google! Came here to tell you how smart I was. Haha.

This was bad. I even found an article from before the game when the ACC crew was announced a ton of people said we were in for a terrible game! Not one sided tho.

Well it was quite the season to remember, but the final game we got our teeth kicked in.
These are the types of schools Washington will be playing next year.
Can they hang with the beasts of the east?!?!
:lol: Who are the other "Beasts of the East"????? Rutgers? Northwestern? Indiana? Purdue? Minnesota? Maryland? Illinois? Nebraska? Michigan State who we completely destroyed? Joke.

Yes, 3 out of 14 teams along with maybe PSU.

The Western B10 teams and Rutgers are like mid major caliber.

Sorry, wasn’t impressed with them. Oregon would have been second in that league last year.

Tired of hearing it. So many fucking excuses for why Big Ten teams lose. Then we have our own fans calling the entire Conference awesome because Michigan is a great team!? Zero reason. Wisconsin lost two years in a row against WSU. We kicked a Michigan State’s ass back to back years. Iowa and Ohio State combined for three fucking points in the Bowl game and Penn State lost their Bowl game as well! We weren’t ready for the first quarter, and still needed some ridiculous officiating to put us away. You can’t tell me things don’t change if that holding call isn’t made or if one of the MANY that should have been called on Michigan are made.

Imagine being a Michigan fan right now. They just won the NC, and a big part of the story is
1. Did the coach cheat
2. Is the coach leaving
3. Why was the officiating one sided

The fact is? They probably win without all the cheating and they probably beat us without the refs. But come on, don’t pretend it didn’t have an effect, don’t pretend that if Harbaugh leaves they won’t be effected and for the love of God, can we stop propping up entire Conferences because one of the teams is good!?

Early big ten ranking

https://athlonsports.com/college-footba ... early-2024
So crazy seeing 18 teams but 20 would have been too many? :roll:

Could have call it the B10x2

Pac12 teams + Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota in the West and the rest in the East. 2 10 team divisions.

Such an obvious solution. I will never get it.

People are saying it's going to happen.
With Oregon and Washington now joining with UCLA and USC in 2024, that could make things a little messier. My focus isn’t even on 2024, though. I am thinking about when the Big Ten is going to add teams No. 19 and No. 20.

My guess is, the two teams that get the Big Ten to 20 programs will come from the ACC. If I had to guess, I would say it is going to be Clemson and Florida State.
You're saying why wasn't wassu and Oregon st. added?

I like how they keep calling it the Big Ten
