Winning gambit to entice ND (as a partner with Stanford) to face the inevitable and join. Part of me is surprised it didn’t work. I think the B1G is still using the carrot instead of the stick, but a 10 game conference schedule would put USC in a tough place to continue the rivalry. I know most of you are understandably tired of ND and their “first world problems “ but this constant vitriol directed at ND is tiresome. We just want to be allowed to be who we are.

I don't think that's why they brought USC in. Pretty clear getting them -- reestuart Aug 11, 2023 at 05:30 PM ET

The B1G's obsession with ND is comical to me. -- Maroon Baboon Aug 11, 2023 at 02:46 PM ET
