2024 BIG Info, Predictions, Etc.
Ranking the most iconic Big Ten football stadiums from worst to first The Oregon Ducks football team will be playing in a new conference in 2024 and with that, they’ll have to prepare to play in some stadiums they have never set foot in before. Yes, it’s called The Big Ten, but there will be 18 stadiums in the conference when the four former Pac-12 school join. While the Big Ten will rival the SEC as the most dominant conference in the nation, there should be little argument that they are home to the most iconic and historic college football stadiums in all of the land. We decided to rank the 18 facilities based on several factors, not just size. We have factored in history, who played there, traditions and other aspects. Of course Autzen Stadium is No. 1 in our hearts, but we tried to be as objective as possible here and not put the Home of the Ducks at the top of the list and Husky Stadium at the bottom. Washington’s home favors quite well in comparison to other Big Ten stadiums, but there’s no way it’s above where it never rains. Here’s our list 1-18 of the stadiums of the Big Ten. Ranking Big Ten stadiums 1 through 18 DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Big Ten is home to some of the most historic college football stadiums in the nation. Which is the most iconic?

OREGON, DIVISION STREET PLAY FOR KICKS AMID TITLE IX NIL LITIGATION
A federal Title IX lawsuit against the University of Oregon, which implicates the school's relationship with NIL collective Division Street, does not appear to have slowed down the partnership. At least not in the gym. While Division Street itself is not subject to the provisions of Title IX, the athlete plaintiffs assert that the university effectively runs the collective and should therefore be responsible for its alleged acts of gender discrimination. So, does the shoe fit?

Are New NFL Rule changes Coming to College Football? Don't be Surprised...
The current hot topic in the world of sports is the recent rule changes that were passed in the National Football League earlier this week at the NFL owner’s meetings. It came out earlier this week that the NFL is making two major rule changes starting in 2024: the league is banning the “hip-drop” tackle where a player uses his weight to bring the ball carrier down to the ground by his waste; the NFL is also overhauling the kickoff format, adopting an XFL variation that will completely change the look of things going forward. Kickers will continue to kick from the 35-yard line, but the other 10 players must line up at the opponent’s 40-yard line. At least nine members of the return team will line up in the “setup zone” between their own 30- and 35-yard lines, and up to two returners will line up in the “landing zone” between the goal line and 20-yard line. Here’s a diagram to help you visualize the NFL’s new kickoff play: College Football: Are NFL rule changes going to trickle down to NCAA? DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM How long will it be until college football falls in line with the NFL in terms of kickoff formats and hip-drop tackles?
