Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 1016585, member: 1023"] I think you could argue about the list at the margins, I don't think anyone east of Idaho really cares about Oregon, for example and Nebraska was relevant in the B-12. In the Big 10 it is just another out of place middle of the road program. They were most relevant as the foil for Oklahoma and Texas I think. They lack the same passion in the Big 10 and it shows. UCLA, really? Maybe back when Gary Beban was under center... But the principle Kevin listed is correct. There are a handful of schools that matter to tv and the odd "story" that pops up each year (Vandy recently, Boise State, Kansas a few years ago). The rest are just filler. [/QUOTE]
