Message: [QUOTE="dayooper, post: 4480647, member: 3859"] Eh, the majority of the Big10 (not Michigan, OSU, PSU and now USC/UCLA) would not be for that. They need the big 3 to come to their stadiums and making all 3 protected with each other would lose the rest of the schools money. I’m more surprised that one of Cali schools isn’t protected with UM but The Little Brown Jug is important to both UM and Minnesota. My guess at protected rivalries for a few of the schools. OSU - Michigan, Illinois (The IlliniBuck rivalry is important to Illinois and on the radar for OSU) and maybe UCLA PSU - Rutgers, Maryland (East Coast games) and USC USC - UCLA, Nebraska and PSU UCLA - USC, OSU and Iowa Iowa and Nebraska are the closest schools to the West Coast teams). In the 3-6 set up, you play the other 12 teams twice in a 4 year span so they still will see them often. [/QUOTE]
