The added week in the Big Ten will bring the regular season to 13 weeks. Normally the Big Ten teams have finished their season before Thanksgiving. A majority vote has finally given the Big Ten Conference a well deserved by-week. Most coaches have complained their players have been beat up during the consecutive 12 week schedules not giving them a chance to recover from injuries! There are a few coaches that still think the 12 consecutive week schedule was the way to go giving their players a chance to go home for the holiday. Big Ten officials have agreed to extend the season, although this change probably wont be in affect untill the 2011 season.
