Is there any recognition of the championship game appearances at Ryan Field today? I presume those will be the only two. I’ll miss the B1G West.

Take a look under the arch (guessing there will be something at NRF, whenever that is)

The 2024 Big Ten football season will also debut the Flex Protect Plus model, which features a combination of protected opponents and rotating opponents for universities. Each member institution will continue to play nine intraconference games per season, and teams will play every other conference opponent at least twice – once home and once away – in a four-year period.
