REPORT: Big Ten considering 10-game conference schedule

A recent report states that the Big Ten Conference will be expanding the number of league games per season.

A recent report states the Big Ten Conference is considering expanding the number of league games per season. Our colleagues at Spartans Wire reported the Big Ten will “most likely be moving to 10 conference games with the additions of the Ducks and Huskies.”

It’s unknown when this change would occur if it does happen.

If the Big Ten does actually expand to 10 games — which is still not certain — then it’ll be interesting to see if that’ll occur in 2024 when USC, UCLA, Oregon and Washington join the league or further down the road.

When considering the size of the conference starting in 2024, it would make a great deal of sense for the conference to expand its league schedule. We’ll have more on this story as this develops.
