That's part of why the idea this pressures Notre Dame even a little bit is questionable to me - what's good for "the Big Ten" isn't nessesarily best for individual members like Purdue or Michigan.  I have a co-worker that has Michigan season tickets that says that game is always the biggest game on the home slate when ND plays at the Big House, to the point that they have an insane contract that runs through something like 2040.  Purdue can't sell out their stadium and leveraged the Notre Dame game to sell tickets to other games (with packages similar to what Syracuse has done recently).

If conferences want to pressure Notre Dame, they need to do it in a more definitive way than this, because individual schools are still going to schedule ND because it's in their own financial interest to do so.  The only way this works if if the schedule out every game between the Big Ten/PAC-12 so there are absolutely no openings for schools to schedule anyone else - but I don't think that's what this means.
