Would Hollis ever schedule a B1G school in the nonconference?

I don't know if there are any rules against it, but wouldn't it be cool for Hollis to schedule Wisconsin or some other Big Ten school in one of the coming years that they'll be off the football schedule?
It sounds like something he might be able to pull off.

Better than playing a Jacksonville State or Eastern Michigan.

OK, I'll give you that. Good example.
I don't see it happening though. With the 2015/6 B1G schedules being released, someone mentioned how much those could change before we get there. So you could have Wisconsin scheduled as "non conference" during an off year with them, then the B1G could change its mind and then you get Wisconsin that same year. Not good.

why not just schedule someone from a different conference instead of someone you played the year before and probably will play again the year after

MSU won't play Wisconsin from 2013 through 2016. MSU-UW has been developing into a great rivalry. I just thought it might be an interesting situation that would get people talking. MSU often thinks outside of the box.
Instead of in-season if it's not viable, a B1G game is definitely something Hollis and Dantonio have been thinking about for a future Spring Game.

No, Hollis has much bigger plans. He's always ahead of the curve and we'll soon find out what his next big idea is.

I don't get why everyone is saying we won't be playing Wisconsin. I fully expect them to take out Urban Meyer's overrated ass every year and play us in the B1G title game on a yearly basis

Are they willing to play the game underwater?

Pretty sure we did this in basketball some years back with UM when we only had 1 conference game on the schedule with them. Not as big of a fan of doing this in football though.

I don't recall playing UM during the non-conference portion of our schedule ever.

Actually, B__ was whining about only playing us in East Lansing one year, so Izzo offered to play a non-con game in Ann Arbor, which B__ rejected. Since then, he's learned to STFU.

I think it was 1995 or 1996 this was done at Breslin. It happened during the Big Ten season so it didn't seem out of the ordinary.
