[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The regular season of college football typically has 12 games. Notre Dame has contracted to play 5 games per season against ACC opponents. Couldn't Notre Dame do the same with the Big Ten Conference simultaneously ? Notre Dame wouldn't have to become a member of either conference (Big Ten or ACC), yet all parties should reap substantial benefits from such an agreement.[/quote]

That’s some creative thinking but the B1G would be too inconvenienced with a scheduling and media quagmire. Plus ND plays Navy and Stanford every year with no openings for cupcakes the team will be beaten into a pulp by the end of the year. The PAC 12 teams are going to get a shock to the system playing in the B1G. It’s a smash mouth League and it will grind a finesse / speed team into the dirt after a whole season. It’s a big reason they haven’t won a natty recently. It’s so brutal and a healthy speed/finesse team from a finesse will beat them in one game but a whole season in the B1G will injure and blow up that type of team by seasons end. Those PAC 12 teams better stock up on tiger balm.[/quote]

Navy and Stanford are cupcakes. So you mean MORE cupcakes. How else can Notre Dame get to 9-10 wins each year without such a weak schedule?[/quote]
