OREGON arriving in the B1G will create changes

Did you miss the part about Tulane?

Now how can you expect Lincoln Riley to go H2H with the illustrious Willie Fritz and his career 43-45 record and come away with a W?

Unrealistic expectations?

Boy...could I see some huge problems with that. Two teams who never faced off, just being judged entirely by looks for a B10 title...yikes.

How else do you separate teams who didn't play

 

[Across The Field]

I think those four will bring some of that parity they had in the PAC to the B1G. And that should make for more wide open conference races…at least that’s what I’m hoping for.

I think the Pac-12 parity was mostly brought by the other teams though.

Check out Georgia’s schedule this year versus Auburn’s.

Not the year to do it … this is the last year of divisions. Take a peek at UGA’s schedule next year. Divisionless SEC and B1G is way more difficult than a PAC schedule.

Depends who you play.

Do we even know a schedule for 2024? Or if we have a 9 or 10 game schedule? All a bunch of conjecture.

Let's play the 2023 games, first.

The HC who hasn't been there since 2009? How about their record vs. the B1G in the CFP era since that's more relevant?

As I posted earlier...with the right coach (just like any program) Helton obviously wasn't that guy. So far, so good with Lincoln Riley, but we'll see. There was a lot to fix.

Helton was a mixed bag I felt. Had some good/great years. Only one losing season but 2019 could've/should've been better, 2020 had promise if not for Covid. Obviously it wasn't great, but I'm not sure I'd say there was "a lot" to fix. If anything, Riley needs to end his idiotic relationship with Alex Grinch and maybe USC can take the next step.

When Oregon competes with UGA, Bama, LSU, Clemson, Texas, Ohio State, etc in recruiting, we might have a discussion, until then, it’s LOL material

Hmmm

2023 Oregon (9) is ahead of Clemson, Notre Dame, Florida, Tennessee, Michigan.
In 2022 (13) - was less that 1 point behind LSU. Ahead of Florida, Tennessee, Miami.
In 2021 (6) - was ahead of everyone except 5 blue bloods.

Only program you listed that I mentioned was Clemson.

And UGA isn’t a blue blood and neither is Texas A&M

 

[Red_Alert]

Faster to 30 BIg 10 conference wins? Each of the PAC schools or Nebraska? Go ahead and use the couple you have collected so far.....

I'll take that.

3 months avatar bet?

Nah, I was just talking shit.

I honestly don't see how this works out for UW, or any of the old Pac members. I just don't think they fit in, I mean, the PAC was a piece of shit ever since Larry Scott, so we were pretty much rats on a sinking ship, no real options.

Was wondering about that, because Nebraska's already at 47 wins. LOL

Agree on SEC schedule being “way more difficult”. Disagree that the B1G schedule is “way more difficult”. It MIGHT be slightly more difficult, but ONLY because of a couple at the top. Only tOSU and Michigan don’t compare with the PAC. Maryland, Iowa, Sparty, Minne, Purdue, etal are the same as ASU, Oregon State, Stanford, etal.

I just don't want to have to see Oregon's disgustingly awful uniforms more often.

Still imbalanced this year and it will change for which team the imbalance schedule hits… both ways.

I’m afraid you are.

I honestly didn't realize how long you guys have been in the Big 10. I was thinking it was only 6 years or so lol.

That's demonstrably false.

They are lifers now. Still have a little outsider stink to them, tho.
