re: Vote to keep 8 game schedule was 13-1

well, let's face it, there's really no downside to change for the B1G. They last played in a title game in 2007. They last won a title in 2002. Over the last 3 years, they've only had one BCS at-large selection (the SEC has had 7 straight years with an at-large BCS participant).

Clearly what they are doing now hasn't been working. And clearly whatever the SEC has been doing is working. You could say they should mimic us but honestly they've been trying and failing miserably at it. So in that light, getting major changes passed in the B1G right now is probably fairly easy.
