The Big Ten Schedules Lost Some Luster

Looking at the Big Ten schedules for 2024-28, I feel like it’s not quite as attractive as I imagined.

USC only plays Michigan or Ohio State but not both in any single season.

In 2025, USC doesn’t even play Ohio State or Penn State. In fact, the Trojans play Penn State every other year.

The first game at Iowa is not until 2027. The first game at Wisconsin is in 2026. These road games are part of the lure of the Big Ten, at least from a fan perspective.

Some of this probably because Washington and Oregon joined the Big Ten, which forced the conference to water down the schedule.

  1. So teams I never much cared about such as Washington St, Oregon St, Colorado, Arizona and Cal
    have been replaced by humdrum Northwestern, Illinois, Nebraska, Maryland and Rutgers

      1. Perhaps down the road you can admit yourself to Atascadero State Mental Hospital, Crazy Lady aka Cowardly Gabby aka TebowObama aka The Guy who posts as So Cal’s Wife & LawyerJohn & Pudly & Plow Horse & steveg49 & Michael Guarino & DOJ & Scott Wolf and Frank Young and Jack Smith and Pigskin Thoughts and Maui Joe.

        Perhaps your condition is like Hunter Biden’s and the Biden dog Commander?

        We’re often told that Joe just loves his son, that’s why he is the way he is. Could that be the source of Commander’s dastardly deeds, just too much love?

        We of course know that love in the Biden family can take many different forms — sometimes it means a lack of punishment; other times it means a blind eye to trading off the Biden name; and sometimes it means sleeping with your widowed sister-in-law mere months after your brother died of brain cancer. We wish, both for the sake of the Secret Service and any other family members in Hunter’s eyesight, and for you, Crazy Lady aka Cowardly Gabby aka TebowObama aka The Guy who posts as So Cal’s Wife & LawyerJohn & Pudly & Plow Horse & steveg49 & Michael Guarino & DOJ & Scott Wolf and Frank Young and Jack Smith and Pigskin Thoughts and Maui Joe, that love for Joe and your parents had meant a rolled up newspaper on occasion.

    ‘lure”????…..Is the USC fan base excited about games played in freezing temperatures with the wind chill in the minus range? …….NO!

    Some of the shit Scott posts reeks of stupidity.

    1. Since you’ve never made it out of the gutter on LA’s Skid Row, much less actually been to Madison, Wisconsin for a football weekend, you would make a post that reeks of stupidity like this one, Crazy Lady aka Cowardly Gabby aka TebowObama aka The Guy who posts as So Cal’s Wife & LawyerJohn & Pudly & Plow Horse & steveg49 & Michael Guarino & DOJ & Scott Wolf and Frank Young and Jack Smith and Pigskin Thoughts and Maui Joe.

      1. How is that any different (take your pick) than:
        Lincoln, NE Columbus, SC Urbana, IL
        Iowa City, IA Tuscaloosa. AL
        State College, PA Manhattan, KS
        Tucson. AZ …. i.e. what else is there to do?

      2. It’s a lot different, rusoviet. The people of Wisconsin are the friendliest you will ever meet. Camp Randle Stadium is surrounded by student housing and if you walk by, the students invite you in for their pregame parties. They aren’t like Oregon fans who hate you if you aren’t rooting for the home team. After the game beautiful downtown Madison on the shores of Lake Monona has several open air bars with bands blaring and the people celebrate college football win or lose. That kind of experience would be lost on a pathological creep like Crazy Lady aka Cowardly Gabby aka TebowObama aka The Guy who posts as So Cal’s Wife & LawyerJohn & Pudly & Plow Horse & steveg49 & Michael Guarino & DOJ & Scott Wolf and Frank Young and Jack Smith and Pigskin Thoughts and Maui Joe. I can’t wait to go when SC plays there in 2026.

  3. Lincoln Riley has not prepared the Trojans for Big Ten play, he continues to recruit soft linemen and coach finesse football . His Mike Leech philosophy needs to change, or teams like Michigan will smash mouth USC up and down the field.

  5. Scooter,

    All that matters for now is getting two Friday Columns and two Friday Supplemental comments. Next season, SC has plenty of well known teams that they will play. They have lsu, nd, michighan, nebraska, wisconsin. No, ugly does not belong in the same discussion because I said well known teams. ugly can’t even draw 10 people to a game. Let us see how everything works out first.

  6. They protected Ohio St and (somewhat)Michigan. Great for them since they believe that Ohio St is the sacred cow. The suits went with a bogus Champions League 3 pots/six teams format with teams playing only 4 teams/same pot total at the most in any pot. That gave Ohio St a chance to avoid a strenuous schedule by avoiding having to play Michigan, Penn St, USC and Oregon in any one season, together. Even if DeBoer leaves Washington, the Luckeyes don’t have to worry about playing Washington AND Penn St, USC PLUS Michigan in any season up to 2028.

    By the way, if Grinch is too stupid to have Barrs and Alexander on the field with the most defensive snaps while rotating one or the other then he will destroy USC’s chance to make the college football playoffs and Riley will be ridiculed as a fool.

  7. Hearing Father Merrin warn Father Karras about the Evil One in “The Exorcist” sounded so much like Guarino warning us about our evil one:

    Merrin: Especially important is the warning to avoid conversations with the demon.
    We may ask what is relevant, but anything beyond that is dangerous.
    He’s a liar.
    The demon is a liar.
    He will lie to confuse us.
    But he will also mix lies with the truth…
    …to attack us.
    The attack is psychological, Damien.
    And powerful.
    So don’t listen.
    Remember that.
    Do not listen!

    Karras: It might be helpful if I gave you some background…
    …on the different personalities Regan has manifested.
    So far, I’d say there seem to be three.

    Merrin: There is only One.

  8. The Big 10 is one and half programs, Ohio State and Michigan. Only Wolf’s manlove leads him to include Coach Win Nothing the r@pe promoter at the State Penn in Childbuggery PA.

    The Permafrost Conference divided into the Rust Belt vs the Cornfields was a zombie walking that needed to find fresh blood, as did their media partners. Texas and Oklahoma told them to go to hell (after our Dear Leaders told Texas and Oklahoma to go to hell).

    Then Folt and Co. tied a noosed rope around our necks and is sending us full speed beyond our tether.

    It was the dumbest thing anyone could do, unless the idea was to further injure/alter the California schools and what remains of their traditional culture that is tied into their athletic programs. I could detail it more but it’s too obvious and been discussed.

    But this whole thing could blow up yet (please God!) before it blows us up- just like so much of what is going on in our contemporary society and its decline. The supposed inevitability of change may ultimately bring things back into our favor.
