Both Delaney and Mike Slive of the SEC knew full well how the 3-5-5 schedule could set up a better match-up in their own championship games, but both still clung to the vague hope that voting against 3-5-5 would cause the ACC to implode and they'd pick and choose from the remnants.  Was that a smart idea on their parts? Abso-freaking-lutely not!  But they've sold their membership on this concept and will go down with that banner nailed to the mast.  Slive has since retired.  Maybe when Delaney leaves everyone will vote to allow 3-5-5.

If anything the B1G needs 3-5-5 more than we do to stop having thatOSU, Meeshigan, Ped State, and MSU maul each other every year just to see who will play Wisconsin in the championship game.  While MSU would play Meeshigan every year, Ped State wouldn't.  They'd play the Twerps, Rutgahs, and MSU (for the coveted Land Grant Trophy!) and have thatOSU and Meeshigan in the two rotation groups.

Neb., Iowa, Wisc., and Minn would have the others as their permanent 3.
The Illinois and Indiana teams would have the others as their permanent 3.
PSU - MSU, Twerps, Rutgahs
Twerps - PSU, Rutgahs, and one of thatOSU/Meeshigan
Rutgahs - PSU, Twerps, and one of thatOSU/Meeshigan
that OSU - Meeshigan, MSU, and one of Twerps/Rutgahs
MSU - PSU, Meeshigan, thatOSU (still getting the shaft because they lose one of the two pretty sure wins each year against the Twerps and Rutgahs).
Meeshigan - thatOSU, MSU, and one of Twerps/Rutgahs
