Big Ten kicking off the 2022 season with some interesting games

[YouSayPotato]

The first four football dates of 2022 will be dominated by the B1G. Hopefully these games will be cash cows for TV revenue. Not a single SEC game during those first three dates and most of the other games are of the caliber VMI at Wake Forest.

Saturday, August 27 - Nebraska vs. Northwestern (in Dublin, Ireland)

Thursday, Sept 1 - Penn State at Purdue

Friday, Sept 2 - Illinois at Indiana; Western Michigan at Michigan State

Saturday, Sept 3 - Notre Dame at Ohio State

The only thing missing from that schedule is a Labor Day Game (or the Sunday before).

Yes, that's a good thought. Labor Day is Monday, Sept 5 and the NFL doesn't start until Sept 8. That Sunday and Monday are wide open for college football.

Is there a list of NIL deals/companies for the guys on the football team? Want to support as many as I can. I’ve purchased items from The Shop in Indy and Breaking T. I don’t live near WL, so I miss out on any local places. Thanks and Boiler Up and POTFH.
