THE BIG 10 THREAD

They should rename the award "The B1G Coach of the Year, not including Ohio State". 2 national championships, 4 ncg's, more BCS wins than any other program (tied with USC?), multiple conference titles, first CFP champions, and the last COY for the Buckeyes was Earle Bruce. In 1979.

Can't really use national championships and BcS wins because if I remember correctly, voting is done in early December.

True true but the team must have been doing pretty damn good pre-december

And if you had to trade the national championships for COY awards . . you would do that?

2003 Michigan State's John L Smith won the award. That award is a complete joke.

It's really the "Your team didn't suck as bad as we expected" award

posted this in the 'the offseason sucks' thread, but in case you guys didnt see it, here it is again. It is a pretty good read on tv monies, and a possible bidding war for your teams TV rights. Should make the payout that much larger.

Which one, there has been a few really exciting games between these two? Bielema taking a timeout to let Michigan State get set rather racing to get set and barely get a kick off. Bielema using timeouts to help set up for the Hail Mary touchdown. The flopping punter to give the ball back to Wisconsin for the win in the first B1GCCG.

My god, Iowa has an EASY schedule.

From the east they get Maryland and Indiana. No Ohio State, no Michigan State, no Michigan, and no Penn State.

Iowa has to go 9-3 with that easy schedule.

Wisky is set up nicely this year. A very tough opener against Bama although after that their toughest game will probably be @ Nebraska. The Badgers don't face the Buckeyes, Spartans or Nittany Lions this year.
