Is there anything the B1G can do to fix the scheduling of this tournament?

I know weather is out of your control but getting 4 games in the first 2 days just seems like a stretch, especially with the pace of play of some of these games.

One game gets stopped and another not played entirely on the second day and then it screws everything up.

Huskers might have an advantage today by not having to play a double header for the championship unlike Minny or OSU.

But damn, if NU had to play this morning too I would be pouting

Hey Sker...I have zero sympathy for O St. & Minny. You know how many times WE have had the short end of the stick? Traveling to other venues, always a target on our backs, hell, the football scheduling by the B1G alone is bullshit. There's been no "welcome to the B1G" by these assholes. Nope...Omaha built a great ballpark and we as Nebraskans should take advantage of it.

Suck it Bucks & Goophs.

The Big 10 owes Nebraska nothing. Nebraska wasn't brought in for it's local tv market, they were brought in for their national exposure as a top 10 football blueblood. Thus far Nebraska is reaping the benefit of big paychecks from tv contracts. $10 million more than the SEC and $21 million more than if they'd stayed in the Big 12. Nebraska needs to uphold it's end of the deal in football. Otherwise they're just another Minnesota has-been from the 50's and early 60's. GBR

What do you mean "Thus Far"? We waited several years before reaping those paychecks. I wasn't asking for ANY handouts from the B1G, just fair scheduling.

Rutgers and Maryland had local tv markets to contribute right away. Nebraska did not. Last I checked Nebraska wasn't only losing to the Ohio St's, Michigan's, and Penn St's of the Big 10. They were also losing to the Illinois' Northwestern's, Purdue's, and Minnesota's. Not to mention their record against OOC foes. Right now Nebraska has gotten the far better end of the deal and will continue to do so regardless of if they ever start to act like a football blueblood again.

I'll also add that Nebraska's schedule this year is made for 'paper tiger' status come December.

How in the fuck did this baseball thread turn into a football thread anyway?

The time schedule for these games are ridiculous. Running programs between games is a waste of air time. Do it like they do the basketball tournament. Game 1 at ___ time, game 2 starts 45 minutes after the first game ends.

Should Nebraska tuck tail and go back to the Big 12 then?

Now who's being over dramatic?

I'm not the one complaining about how unfairly the Big 10 has treated Nebraska.

Just offering the most obvious solution. I'm sure the Big 12 would take Nebraska back (with it's tail between it's legs) without thought.
