Um is awful we all know that but imo, the conference is very weak! UW, O St have some glarring issues. My choice is Penn St. The Big Ten rep in the BCS will have two L's at least.

Re: Hurray UM wins finally
So is ND going to treat Charlie Weis the same way they did Ty Willingham after his 3rd season??Originally posted by b bulldogUm is awful we all know that but imo, the conference is very weak!

Highly doubt it.

Gophers (my alma mater) lost to Florida Atlantic today--after losing to Bowling Green two weeks ago and barely beating Miami (Ohio) in OT last week.
I thought North Dakota State (a very good small school) had a chance to beat the Gophers. Now, I'm thinking if they do beat them, it won't even be worth bragging about."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great.

I'm willing to be HE wishes he was there.....it's painful for me right now...my beloved Irish are as ugly as I predicted."I would love to have a guy that always gets the key hit, a pitcher that always makes his best pitch and a manager that can always make the right decision. The problem is getting him to put down his beer and come out of the stands and do those things." - Danny Murraugh

Originally posted by Harlan HucklebyI don't care that UM won, but I sure am glad to see Notre Dame lose.
I have mixed feelings about ND. I want them to join the Big Ten, it makes perfect sense. But as long as they are running their own selfish show, I wish a plague of locusts upon them.
It's not selfish, it's smart. They have 6 "rivalries"...USC, Michigan, Michigan St., Purdue, Stanford, Boston College...if they had the Big 10 schedule, they couldn't get all their rivalries. I consider those 6 games their "conference" schedule....the problem is that this is the first year ND decided to actually schedule pancake teams, just like all other top teams do. Otherwise ND always schedules an entire schedule of hard games....AND, they are making money, which is EVERYTHING the BCS does, so why not capitalize?"I would love to have a guy that always gets the key hit, a pitcher that always makes his best pitch and a manager that can always make the right decision.

They could play three of the rivalries in the Big 10--which would leave the other three for the non-conference schedule. Is Notre Dame-Stanford really that big of a rivalry anymore? They could play a 12 game schedule. The Big 10 schedule and four non-conference games. Two could be an annual meeting with USC and Boston College. They could rotate the likes of Stanford, Navy, Air Force, etc. for one game. Then, play a different team in the other game."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great.

Nope. I'm from North Dakota. I always rooted for NDSU football and Sioux hockey. If you aren't from Fargo or Grand Forks, you can do that.Originally posted by PartialI thought you went to ND State?

That is where the selfishness comes in....I read yesterday that if ND joined the big 10, they'd lose around $15 million dollars a year...Personally, I don't give a crap where they play, but that's a lot of money to lose out. If they joined the league, they'd have to give 80% of their TV income to the Big 10.Originally posted by HarveyWallbangersThey could play three of the rivalries in the Big 10--which would leave the other three for the non-conference schedule.

Well ya, they are sitting pretty. They have their own TV contract. they get most of the benefit of being in the Big Ten by scheduling 3 or 4 Big Ten Schools every year - without having to share revenues.Originally posted by ND72It's not selfish, it's smart.

I say screw Notre Dame. I don't hate them because they are good - they've had crappy teams for years. I hate them because they have unfair economic advantages that get them in bowls they don't deserve to be in.
I'll be happy to like Notre Dame if they join the Big Ten adn give-up special advantages. They'll have to sink a little more before that becomes an attractive option to them. So sink away, boys!
