I don't know, maybe OSU and michigan know how to keep a tradition unlike other schools.  They have played 113 times and have played the last game of the regular season since 1935 except for 3 times during that span. 

Plus I would assume the Big10 would want east and west teams to stay in their divisions for the last game since they don't want the possibility of teams playing each other two weeks in a row. 

 
I have come to believe that husker fans will always hate the athletic director. 

I am 50 years old and in my fandom life, only two ADs were not hated by the fan base. They just happened to be also hall of fame football coaches. 

But, even TO wasn't universally liked as an AD. 

Its like fans release all their pent up frustration about there own boss on the AD and think it's part of the fun of being a fan to rip on the AD. 

Some people have a really really wierd sense of what is fun.

I rescind my notion to can Eichorst and Riley, as they are now going for Black Friday.  This has been my only complaint of them.

I don't think people like to or want to hate the athletic director. His No. 1 priority is the sustained success of the Husker football program.

Many of SE's decisions and comments surrounding football have been questionable and controversial and I believe that's the crux of the issue. If Riley starts to win and win big, most of this other stuff will be irrelevant, in my opinion.
