"What if the B1g, wanting to expand its 6 team hockey conference(too many open dates) went after Pac 12 schools as associate members similar to Johns Hopkins in lacrosse.
Power 5 Conference
Expand footprint$ of both conference$
Add BTN pre$ence
Heresy? Maybe not."

Re: Arizona State Moving To D1
Take it FWIW, but I'm a donor to Michigan's program and I've heard through the grapevine recently that Arizona State is in fact going to be added to the B1G as an affiliate member for hockey. There were discussions on group trips for alumni/donors to AZ for games. The same scenario where Johns Hopkins was added as an affiliate member to create the B1G's sponsorship of lacrosse.
Also that another full-time B1G member school is seriously looking to add hockey now that they have a facility that's in the works.---

Re: Arizona State Moving To D1
I like 28. It reminds me of the good old days where the same team was in your barn for the weekend. It also helps ASU in that they get marquee matchups for a weekend to boost interest/attendance.
That leaves 6 OOC for each team. Saves travel money?CCT '77 & '78

Re: Arizona State Moving To D1
I could see where they might have school play one 2-game series vs. one team per year (rotating opponents), 4 against the rest with one guaranteed 4-game series against an assigned rival. This would allow for 2 more OOC games. UMi-MSU, UM-UW, OSU-PSU and ASU-UN as the pairs.Last edited by Slap Shot; 09-26-2015, 03:39 AM.

In all seriousness, though, I get why this schedule works for expense reasons, but I hate the imbalance. I'd rather see these pairings for travel partners on Fri/Sun series.If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me
