SEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCC East is one of the worst divisions in football. I think UT is the best option to win it and then get spanked by LSU or Bama in the champ game.

Solid. I hope that it doesn't go away completely, although I'm fine not playing them every single year.

I think it will be 18 & 19 and then a break until Michigan's schedule opens up again. 20 & 21 has Michigan playing home and homes with Washington and Va. Tech. With UCLA, OU, and Texas on the schedule after that. Does Michigan have the balls to go back to a non-conference schedule consisting of ND, another big name opponent and a good MAC school/ lower tier power 5 school go forward in 22.

Doubtful, but mostly because of the Big Ten schedule. Michigan is going to want to schedule 3 out of conference home games on years where they have 5 Big Ten road games, just for the money. So unless they can get ND and the big name opponent at home in those years, it's not going to happen.

Looking at the website this is what currently in the pipeline

• 2020: Sept. 5 at Washington, Sept. 12 vs. Ball State, Sept. 19 vs. Virginia Tech
• 2021: Sept. 11 at Virginia Tech, Sept. 18 vs. Washington
• 2022: Sept. 10 vs. UCLA
• 2023: Sept. 2 at UCLA
• 2024: Aug. 31 vs. Texas
• 2025: Sept. 6 at Oklahoma
• 2026: Sept. 12 vs. Oklahoma
• 2027: Sept. 4 at Texas

Barring any changes to the conference schedule, it going to require some schedule juggling. Michigan plays four B1G home games in the odd number years. Michigan has already schedule road big name teams in those years. However, an even split is possible because two of those four conference games are MSU and OSU. So, you put together a home schedule of ND, MSU, and OSU. That's three guaranteed sellouts and lots of people on campus. Pair it with a lower tier power 5 school as a second OOC home game and the remaining two conference home games (currently Rutgers and a rotating West school) doesn't seem so bad.

LSU is playing Wisconsin but forced UW to move its home game from Camp Randall to Lambeau.

Michigan and Arkansas were scheduled for a home and home. But it conflicts with Notre Dame, so it will probably be cancelled or changed in some way.

Penn state also was forced to some neutral site game.
Um played bammer at jerry world.

Is a home and home too much to ask?

Even the past 10 years with all the sucking they still played good teams and I appreciate that. Home and homes with UCLA, Cal, Oregon, Oklahoma etc.

Huh?

PSU played a home and home with Alabama in 2010-2011. And PSU has scheduled a home and home with Auburn for 2021-2022.

Yeah, but it really doesn't get cold until November, and nobody plays non-rival non-conference games that late in the year.

Sec does. November is when sec beats up on d2.

Point still stands. Pretty much anyone in the other 3 power conferences will schedule against Osu or um home and home. With the exception of ut.

I hope LSU didnt think that may take away their advantage. The Badgers and the Packers are the only two football teams in the state. That is just what LSU wants. A bunch of Packer fans screaming at them in Lambeau instead of Badger fans in Camp Randall.

I don't think "forced" is accurate. As I understand it, when they scheduled the game they planned to play it at Lambeau.

I still argue that the "home-and-home" doesn't happen if UW didn't move their game to a neutral site.

I imagine that LSU said they wouldn't do a return trip unless the game was at Lambeau. So forced is pretty much accurate. But the series wasn't a home and home anyway, LSU and Wisconsin played in Houston in 2014.

Doesn't that presuppose that Wisconsin didn't want to play a game at Lambeau, and only went along with it because LSU "forced" them to?
