What is the criteria for best culture?

Whatever an Iowa fan says it is obviously.

Racism among the coaching staff and locker room must be good enough to be #4 culture worthy.

Waving at sick kids is an added bonus. i.e. "Too bad you're stuck up there and can't be down here with the rest of us."

It wasn't the Iowa fan's ranking.

 
I'm all for coming up with lists that put Michigan at #1, but "cultures" is kinda vague.

If 'wins' is the culture criteria then it is likely correct having Nebraska last. However, Rutgers should not be ahead of Indiana, Wisconsin, Purdue.

Culture is when you hire a legendary coach of your programs son and then have to fire him after 3 days....that is a great culture

What could weeks 1-3 look like as far as when and where(tv network) B1G games are scheduled: This was put together by The Athletic

Thursday, August 31st:

Nebraska at Minnesota - 8:00 | Fox

Saturday, September 2nd:

Indiana at Ohio State - 12:00 | CBS (B1G #2 selection)
Utah State at Iowa - 12:00 | FS1 (B1G #5 selection)
East Carolina at Michigan - 3:30 | Fox (B1G #3 selection)
NW at Rutgers - 7:00 | FS1 (B1G #4 selection)
WVU at PSU - 7:30 | NBC (B1G #1 selection)

Saturday, September 9th:

Nebraska at Colorado - 12:00 | FOX (P12 #1 selection)
UNLV at Michigan - 12:00 | CBS (B1G #1 selection)
Delaware at PSU - 12:00 | FS1 (B1G #3 selection)
Iowa at Iowa State - 12:00 | ABC (B12 #1 selection)
Youngstown State at Ohio State - 7:30 | NBC (B1G #2 selection)
Wisconsin at Washington State - 7:30 | FOX (P12 #3 selection)

Friday, September 15th:

UVA at Maryland - 7:30 | FS1

Saturday, September 16th:

PSU at Illinois - 12:00 | FOX (B1G #1 selection)
Syracuse at Purdue - 12:00 | FS1 (B1G #3 selection)
Minnesota at UNC - 3:30 | ABC
Indiana vs. Louisville(Indianapolis, IN) - 3:30 | FS1 ( B1G #4 selection)
Washington at Michigan State - 7:30 | NBC (B1G #2 selection)

My thoughts:

I think Fox will pick Buffalo at Wisconsin in week 1 for the FS1 7:00 game, instead of NW/Rutgers. Of note WVU/PSU has already been announced. The #2 and #3 selections make sense to me.

Week 2 is brutal for CBS and NBC. All the notable B1G games that week are with the B1G team being on the road. Luckily for Fox, they'll probably take Neb/Colorado as noted above, so that should still produce a good number.

For week 3, I think Fox takes Washington/MSU with their selection, making they Big Noon kickoff and thus Illinois vs. PSU is the NBC primetime game that week. I think Fox will take WKU/Ohio State instead of Syracuse/Purdue.

Will be interesting to see how it shakes out.

It was an amazingly stupid hire to begin with. In the announcement tweet there were literally screen grabs of his twitter feed within seconds.
