OSU had 8 last year I think. They don't have to have 7.

Fact is right now teams can have 16 home games over two years. In 2017 they can have 15 home games over two years. They are missing out on that revenue no matter what way you cut it.

The B1G makes more money from:
a) Penn State vs. Syracuse, home/away
b) Penn State vs. Purdue, home/away

The MAC schools will still be on the B1G sked; don't worry. The 9th B1G game, more often than not, will replace an OOC BCS game. The B1G will cash in on this, no doubt.

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.
