Or because the Big Ten actually looks to play the MAC schools because the MAC schools are in the Big Ten Network footprint. And these less high profile games are the ones that get picked up by the Big Ten Network. They would much rather play Buffalo and have another 50k TV viewers (making money for the BTN from advertisers) than play New Mexico and have no extra TV viewers because no one in New Mexico has the network. Seriously, I don't get the constant love affair with Danny White. The Big Ten has been pushing for more MAC games since the launch of the BTN. They come calling to the MAC schools. Want to praise scheduling? Compare it to other MAC programs which are getting home games from P5 schools. These are the MAC schools hosting home games against P5s the last two years: Akron - Iowa State Bowling Green - Maryland CMU - Kansas NIU - Boston College NIU - Utah Toledo - Miami (Florida) Ohio - Kansas WMU - Syracuse
