Well, we opened up this season by playing the Michigan Wolverines in Ann Arbor ... why not open up next year by playing the grits-deprived Buckwheats of The Ohio State in Columbus, eh? I know it is riskier for your won/loss record, but I think it would be better if the major programs played stronger teams for at least some of their nonconference games.
