That stretch from Illinois to Maryland looks brutal.

So the entire home conference slate is against teams they have no real natural or even conjured up rivalry against??

That's exactly why I've always said I want K-State in the Big12 even if we had options to go where we want. I simply give no shits about schools from different conferences. It would kill my fandom.
I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

Rumblings that Nub is the sleeper pick to win the bogus big 10 division that they're in.  The cupcake schedule may be why.

Illinois
Purdue
Minnesota
Maryland

Steve Dave or other NE residents, a fun game would be to ask your friends, neighbors and coworkers if they know the head coach of any of the above teams.  I am pretty sure Illinois has the old Bears coach but after that

Yes. The Fresno State players starting to clap when they realize what is going on was pretty cool too. No matter who you are, seeing a program lose a player like that and then honor him in that way is very nice.

My understanding is that Fresno State declined the penalty too.  Pat Hill would have accepted.

Quats did that against OU in 2005 but we didn't get any cool recognition for it :curse:

Pat would have knocked the new punter out of the game
