I think the ACC would gladly add Penn State to make 16 with ND with they wanted to leave the Big 10. Which they never will because the money is too good. We've made clear how we feel about WVU, we dislike it so much we'd rather have cheatin hooker buyin Louisville in the conference than WVU. No one wants Rutgers back to the AAC with you.

There was a rumor, and I'm not sure how credible it was, that Penn State had threatened to leave the Big Ten for the ACC, and the addition of regional rivals in Maryland and Rutgers was a concession.

I wouldn't want Penn State in the ACC for a variety of reasons.

That seems like probably not a huge deal given the defense he was playing and the likelihood of Hail Marys working in general. Also Nebraska won a game that year on the Flea Kicker, which was both insanely lucky bullshit and against the rules, if you really want to play what ifs from 1997 (there is also a pretty decent chance they don't get enough coaches to change their minds and vote Nebraska 1st without Osborne announcing his retirement right before the bowl game)

Haha, I forgot about the kick thing against Mizzou.

I mean the likelihood of Leaf hitting the Hail Mary was minimal, but they clearly just drained the clock at the end and it was frustrating to watch as a 14yo 3rd party fan.

There is no Coordinator but Narduzzi, and Shilique is his Prophet.
Leaders and Legends were goofy and cross-divisional stuff was weird, but I'm looking at a good not great team and man is it a rough division compared to the Wisconsin and sometimes Iowa division.

Here's the last year for Legends and Leaders and the first year for Maryland and Rutgers. I think it's pretty cool that they acknowledged that geographical division didn't really work but there's not much that works better.

They'll never separate Ohio State and Michigan because they don't want to a) move the game from the final week and b) play two games in a row potentially between those two teams.

You're more likely to get Michigan State and Penn State on the same side with OSU/Penn St and Michigan/MSU always playing.

This was the actual set-up from 2011-2013.

That's why it was rad when we scored first, was such a pleasant surprise :)

I turned the game off after that and felt good afterward that we held bama's offense to 17 points

That's Penn State's third night game and Michigan's second as best I can tell.

UW has had six, and two more are already scheduled for 7:30, so that's at least 8 with the other 4 games still TBD.

They haven't been ranked since week 5 of 2005. They briefly jumped into the polls that year after Drew Tate concussed himself like a dummy and they beat what was supposed to be a good Iowa team. The only preaseason ranking in the entire history of the program was in 1978.

Nah man I swear ISU got a totally undeserved pre season ranking at like 25 a few years ago. Maybe it was the coaches poll.

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.
I get a ton of satisfaction from how lovely conference realignment has been by and large except for VT forcing their way in at figurative gunpoint (our governor forced UVA to vote us in) and being ridiculously successful across the board and skyrocketing VT to a place they would never have approached otherwise.
