    Dominant 2024 season by the ducks. Not sure we have ever had such a clear cut “best team.”

    really wish we had Northwestern representation along with a couple other B1G schools on here. I know a NW guy but he's a full on Masshole from Boston who won't shut the fuck up about the Celtics and Red Sox and we don't need anymore of those guys here

    Should be gorgeous weather end of September. Where are you coming in from? I think the things around state college that would be most appealing would likely be outdone by what’s around Eugene (hiking, trout fly fishing is excellent for east coast, etc). Other than that, get drunk

    There’s some decent courses in town. Toftrees is where I’d try and get a tee time. Blue & white courses are university owned, pretty mediocre but options nonetheless.

    Thank you sir!!! As we get closer I will message about what I should do game day / tailgate stuff all of those fun matters. I’m really hoping it’s a night game maybe a white out (don’t know how they determine to do those) I want the entire damn experience.

    I think there’s some hope for a whiteout tbh. Or at least not to be noon.

    while I think you’re taking a shot at our attendance numbers, 6 k for a ring ceremony would be pretty good especially when you take into account how much there is to do in LA.

    CB do you have a projected SOS for each team in the B1G? Seems like a lot of easy ones this year for the big boys.

    still tweaking a lot so this obviously can change, but as of right now, here is the average CBI ranking of each B1G team's opponents

    Oregon has the "toughest" schedule by pure opponent average but it is a little skewed as they get an FCS opponent

    in actuality, Wisky probably has the toughest slate as they play 0 FCS opponents, 5 teams currently in my top 25, and 3 others that are 26th thru 40th

    as we work through the offseason we can see how this changes based on tweaks to the rankings

    This is no longer accurate, the Nebraska Cincinnati game is now at Arrowhead Stadium instead of Lucas Oil Stadium.
