"Iowa: Auburn
You get knocked as a "farm school" by your rivals, but every third year Kirk Ferentz and Gus Malzahn put a team out there that gets in the Playoff conversation."

"Michigan State: Texas A&M
Michigan State fan: "Michigan fans have the audacity to call us Little Brother."
Texas A&M fan: (Cracks knuckles)"

"Rutgers: Arkansas
These teams are a combined 0-32 in conference play the past two seasons. At least both have hope with new coaches in Sam Pittman and Greg Schiano."

And the best of all...

"Michigan: Tennessee
Their fight songs get stuck in your head. Their stadiums house 100,000-plus. They can't beat their rivals, and they haven't won a national championship since the '90s. If these two logged on to a dating site, it would be a 100 percent match."

Indiana: South Carolina

We both suck, but they somehow have a worse history than we do.

I would prefer an Auburn-Purdue match. Two schools who don't care what the name of the state is.

No way bitter BIG fans pull for any SEC teams since they'll be insanely jealous of the SEC's rabid fanbase enjoying a season of fb while they do yard work.

I see BIG fans pulling for either ACC or BigXII teams in order to counterbalance the SEC. Maybe not Clemson for similar reasons.

Madison and Athens are 2 great college towns.

Physical brand of football as a program.

I think it makes sense

They're going to root for upsets.

The AP announced their preseason poll will include teams choosing to play in the spring.
I'd bet the house, if both seasons play, they WILL put out a final composite poll.

Which means, Ohio State will likely be "eligible" for the AP title, and will know right from the start if they can afford a loss, or not. And you better believe they would broker a deal to have some sort of Rose Bowl, and try to make it for the "OVERALL" Championship.

This spits in the faces of teams willing to play in the NORMAL time-frame.

I mean, sure, Auburn has a swine research center, but Iowa literally grows corn in the Kinnick stadium parking lot.

There's farm, and then there's farm.

Iowa State is the Ag school in Iowa

UI is to the state of Iowa as UAt is to the state of Alabama

Nah they hate us with all the recruits we've taken from them... or at least ones they thought they had.

Ohio State fans should pull for LSU. The tigers did them a favor by taking Joe Burreaux off their hands.
