When TO was coach it was Big 8 and we played Oklahoma for conference championship every year on Black Friday. That did a lot positively for our national exposure.
Things have changed. It the B1G the conference championship gets that same exposure. That and our Black Friday game.
Playing OSU and Mich. every year hurts our chances of making the conference championship.
Keep the existing conference alignment and protect the Black Friday game. Also it is better for us if Black Friday is with the same opponent all the time. It could be Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, or Northwestern. But hopefully it takes on the same rivalry flavor that we had when it was Oklahoma. It could even be Oklahoma or Colorado instead of a conference opponent.
