Hate Ralph as Ne. We should probably be groundskeeper Willie.

Hopefully in Matt era, I will swap Rainier Wolfcastle (Minnesota) and Ralph (Nebraska)
And replace Marge to Willie (UCLA)
Purdue should be Lisa Simpson and IU should be Bart as IU is often referred to as PU's big brother. I'ld probably switch Iowa to Ned Flanders.
Well…two of those are beautiful.Man this rivalry is so beautiful :horns

You know it baby!!!Well…two of those are beautiful.
B1G still trying to come up with scheduling model for 2024 and beyond. We know that divisions are dunzo.
3-6-6 is the most clean, so I am sure the B1G will not go with that. (And somehow Iowa will get Rutgers every year)
Also trying to figure out a way to give every team a trip to Cali once a year and to limit USC/UCLA going to the easternmost schools on back to back weeks.
My guess 3-6-6. I assume no divisions. Husker protected rivals: Iowa, Wisconsin, and UCLA. Or else Minnesota instead of UCLA.
Regarding the Bold text, not sure any "protected rival" can be truly considered until the B1G's expansion intentions are announced. "If" the B1G is bringing in 2 more Pac schools (likely Cal and Washington or Stanford and Washington) Then we unimportant peeps can throw out our proposals. All in fun as we know nobody really cares about what the fans opinions are.
Regarding expansion I genuinely feel the next additions will be Washington, Clemson, FSU & yes... Notre Dame but that won't happen until the FSU & Clemson finalize internal decisions regarding the hefty cost as stated here: (Link)

Cost of departure
Contracts are made to be broken in every industry. In college athletics, the most recent example is the upcoming depature of Texas and Oklahoma from the Big 12 to the SEC in 2024 -- one year earlier than the end of the Big 12's deal. It will be very pricey for Clemson, Florida State -- or any other ACC program, for that matter -- to leave under the league's current grant of rights.
Carolyn Egan, Florida State's vice president for legal affairs and general counsel, said during Friday's meeting that the exit fee would be approximately $120 million, according to the Tampa Bay Times."
@Hooked on Huskers - For now, maybe forever, Oregon won't get the invite. Cal/Washington/Stanford are the best bets to get an invite. (has to do with fed research grant $.$$) Another reason Oregon won't get consideration is the East Coast teams. UNC/Virginia/G. Tech/FSU are all Fed Research Grant $.$$ rich. (FSU being the lowest) and finally there's Notre Dame who holds all the cards. Which I'd find incredibly funny if say Cal and Washington are invited followed by say UNC and Virginia. Then Notre Dame contacting the remaining teams (especially teams like Clemson, Utah, Oregon, Stanford, FSU, Okie St, TCU, Baylor, BYU to name a few) and saying screw the B1G and SEC .. let's pool our resources and create a true coast to coast conference. Now that would be awesome and the perfect way to give the finger to the B1G and SEC.
