With an "NFL style" broadcasting package coming, how would you like to see scheduling adjusted? 

I forget where I saw it, but week one for the BIG didn't look so hot after the OSU ND game and you have to think the networks are going to want to see some alterations to the schedule that match up the time slots to maximize revenue. 

IMO, dumping divisions is a needed start, but does everyone think it's worth missing MSU, PSU, Rutgers, Maryland etc. occasionally to pick up more of Wisconsin, Iowa, USC, Nebraska, UCLA? 

What about playing TTUN as the last game every year "can't ever be moved" considering it could result in playing each other in a conference championship immediately after? (FWIW, I think you have to keep that one but could make it messy if OSU and TTUN have a run where they are the dominant teams).  

What about scheduling watchable out of conference games throughout the schedule so that we can have better or different content mid to late season Ex. Wisconsin / Colorado, Nebraska / Oklahoma, UCLA / Washington?  

How do you think scheduling should shake out to give us, the viewers, max entertainment?
