I like the idea of having two good non-conference games a year, one on the road and one at home like the 2020 and 2021 seasons have with Virginia Tech and Washington.
Wisconsin?
1. Georgia 2. LSU 3. Clemson
FIll those dates with crappy Mid Majors.
I want the easiest path to the playoff.
That is the truth. Its too bad ND and UM don't schedule 1AA teams to fill those holes.
There's plenty of competing to be done in the Big Ten East. It's arguably the 2nd toughest division in all of College Football going forward. Why would anyone want to make the schedule harder than it needs to be.
The ultimate goal is a National Championship. Beefing up your OOC schedule does nothing for the football program.
The Playoff is now our OOC schedule.
Ohio State just called, wanted to introduce theirselves to you.
I'd like to see some of the powerhouse programs mentioned above. But i would really like to see us play Miami (YTM)
Auburn, so we can get back at them for whining about the satellite camps 10 years after the fact.
Serious answer: any school we don't have a winning record against.
Serious addendum: any *FBS* school we don't have a winning record against.
This would still include Appalachian State.
But 1-2 if you count FCS AppSt. (Yes I know its 1 loss but it should count for 2)
Oregon Ducks in Eugene please!!!!!!!!!!
Nooooooo thanks.
And that was before Oregon became Oregon.
Tennessee: because those guys are still bitter about Manning losing the Heisman to Woodson. I'd love to make them even more bitter towards Michigan.
Auburn: because Malzahn is a petty whiner. I'd love for Harbaugh to put him in his place.
Texas A&M: despite the fact that I hate that Aggie woop crap they do, I'd love to see a game at Kyle Field.
LSU: seeing Michigan at Death Valley would be a site to see. Against Les Miles no less.

I am getting really impatient. The off season sucks.
By offseason standards, this is a rather on point thread though - just meant to generate some discussion, and indeed, a cut above some of the things that have been floated as discussion points in the last several days.
As a general note, I am just impressed (and a little saddened) to see that we now have games scheduled basically into my 50s. I know I am by no means the oldest person here, but the advance scheduling puts things in perspective somehow.
We do this thread every 60 to 90 days.
For purely selfish reasons, Cal and Stanford (I live in the Bay Area).
I would love to see us start a new rivalry with Texas to replace Notre Dame. Of all of the universities with major college football programs, I think Michigan is most similar to Texas: large, prestigious public university with a huge endowment, a blueblood football program that has been largely scandal-free, and an athletic department that mints money and fields a ton of high-achieving sports teams.
Michigan does not have a losing record against UNLV and they NEVER will.
K-State would be a good choice. They are usually beatable early in the season and very good by season's end, and would be a quality win.
Arizona, just to witness the meltdown this board would have.
Future Rose Bowl matchup.

We are both very similar programs atm. Big stadiums. Declined lately. Tennesse has recruited Michigan a lot. Also I would like to see LSU would be fun to see 2 power offenses go at each other.
