New schedule with no divisions is about to be released

[Baron Winnebago]

Our reputation is probably the only thing that is stopping them from kicking us out

 

[Kazman5k]

We gonna run the fucking league by 25

 

[Pepe Silvia]

With an unequal amount of home and away games plus the chance for strength of conference schedule to be wildly different I wonder if eventually they have to create some sort of power rankings to determine standings. (Or just add more teams to get to 4 divisions)

power rankings that supersede record are the last thing we want. that would pretty much guarantee UM/tOSU/USC in the championship game every year

Before the new schedules, Nebraska was slated to play @Michigan, Ohio State and @Penn State, with consecutive games in 2024, with a bye week between Ohio State and Penn State .. 2024 is much more favorable now .. But 2025 will be a monster ..

We will be a monster program again 2025 though, so it makes sense

Yeah. I like the one year buffer of having the harder schedule in 2025 instead of 2024

Super Bowl level viewership for those game I assume

I thought we played Tennessee beginning in 2025. Was curious enough to look it up. We don’t. That starts in 2026…BUT…we do play @ Cincinnati in 2025.

What do we gain by going to Cincinnati? I swear our athletic department sometimes… 🤬

it still blows my mind that our 2025 schedule includes Maryland, Rutgers, Ohio St, Michigan, USC and UCLA and they are all conference games. if you'd told me that in 2005 it would have been completely unbelievable

 

[Carm]

It was a quote from Alberts back in March, in which he said, "I think the one thing we can recognize is this: It doesn't matter what model we come up with in scheduling. Every team is looking at their schedule saying, 'Oh my gosh.' And so that's what I said this morning to my coaches. We're in the Big Ten. We're adding USC and UCLA. There's no model that you're going to find where you're going to say, 'Oh good, this is a (easy) winnable schedule.' Every single week is going to be a dogfight.

"And that's why when we talked about this coaching change, the attention to detail is going to be so critically important because these games are going to be won or lost on very thin margins. And that's where I'm confident that Coach Rhule and his staff are going to help us navigate that."

Cockeye will not be having much fun that year.

 

[BIGSTICK67]

our 2024 schedule is about as easy as we could have hoped for

Agree. Usually I'm pretty cynical about the scheduling, but I'm quite pleased this time around.

Anyone know if the Big Ten is gonna stick to this gay thing they do where we play a conference game in week one?

I think they should get rid of that, and then we can schedule Colorado as a permanent week one game

2025 sucks dick

bump. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that when the schedule is redone to include Oregon and Washington we'll get fucked somehow

What's so bad about traveling to Oregon, USC, Ohio State and Michigan in 4 out of the first 6 weeks?

nothing says "fair" like having a 9:30 pm CT kickoff in Eugene followed by 11 am the next week in Ann Arbor

In here talking about 2024 and 2025. Can’t we just focus on how stressful this season is going to be.
