wisc, mich, psu & iowa are all "B1G good", which means they'd lose a NYD bowl against another P5 program if they made one.We play Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Michigan, Penn State and Iowa this year. How is that a joke of a schedule? I can tell you and many other Nebraska fans hate the conference but you could at least try and be reasonable. Ryan Day however is turning around Ohio State QBs and the NFL.
You said Nebraska stinks despite their competition, not because of it, yet they are 44-49 in conference play since joining the conference 10 years ago. And the more recent you go, the worse that record becomes. I would say the strength of the Big 10 is a big reason for Nebraska "stinking", especially when you compare it to their Big 12 record for the previous decade. And lastly the Big 10 is always littered with draft picks. Usually every year the Big 10 is second in most draft picks.
ND is basically the same as michigan.
your team, mich & psu produce 85%+ of the B1G's draft stock every year. only your team does anything with them while in school.
B1G is, at best, an average P5 conference. we are a vastly below average P5 program.
