also, i'd like to see the conference drop the silly non con scheduling requirements Archived Message

it's going to really hurt programs like us, PU, IU, NW, MD, RU, MN, etc. the little guys in the conference need to band together to try and end that. never should've accepted it in the first place - bullshit that Barry Alvarez got to dictate who we schedule in the non conference. Previous Message we benefited as much or more than any program in the country from COVID 5th years. Really bailed us out in Bert's first two years. We lose our best players from last years team, and the replacements will mostly be SOs and FR. i think 2024 will struggle, we'll rebound in 2025 which is fine. last thing i'll say is everyone needs to recalibrate expectations with the death of the B1G West and expansion of the historically best 4 PAC12 teams. 6-6 is going to be harder to come by. Previous Message I will be shocked if Bert pulls us out of this nose dive. 4-8 next year should get him fired.
