Since the move to 12 games, Iowa has always had 7 home games. This will not change with the move to 9 B1G conference games. Won't hurt Iowa at all.
So you are saying they always play one away out of conference game, right?
So they could have a year where they play 5 away Big10 games, 4 home Big10 games, 1 away OOC game, 2 home OOC games.
So they'd play 6 home games and 6 away games. They lose out on that revenue.

This isn't hard to understand. Right now Iowa plays 7 home games a year with 4 of those being in conference and three OOC. When they move to a 9 game conference schedule, in the years they play 5 home games they will schedule 2 rent a wins at home and an away game against a BCS level school, in the years they have 4 home games they will schedule 2 rent a wins at home and a home game against a BCS level school. 7 home games either way.

It takes an AD 10 seconds to think, "Ok, in 2018, we have four B1G home games and five B1G away games. Let's make sure not to have an away OOC game that year." Presto.
