Of course, everything is T.V. based, but for true fans, driving to a road game and having an overnight trip, what could be better?
But again, it'll never happen.
If U of M wants to join another conference, they could still keep the Ohio State game as a standing date. Does anyone (other than fans of the opposition) really look forward to Indiana/MD/Rutgers/Penn State/etc?
I was kinda looking forward to the Big Ten Conference championships featurng teams like Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan, etc., vs teams like USC, UCLA, Washington, etc.
You know... an old-fashioned Rose Bowl.
The SEC has stayed within the footprint of states that contributed to the Cause.
Michigan-Minnesota = “Battle for the Little Brown Jug.”
Michigan-Michigan State - I don’t recall a name for it but it is a strong rivalry.
Other rivalries have gone away because teams joined other conferences.
