Tim Brewster Slams Big Ten Scheduling

Gophers football coach Tim Brewster isn’t happy about the Big Ten schedule that has his team playing 12 straight games without a bye this season. Indiana has two byes, Wisconsin one. “It’s unfortunate; it’s poor scheduling, not from our part, but the way it plays out in the Big Ten,” Brewster said Tuesday. “Players shouldn’t have to play 12 straight weeks without a bye. Every season should have a weekend off. It’s unfair to kids. We’re in the kid business, and we’re asking them to play 12 straight weeks.” – Pioneer Press
