What BC has proposed used to be the norm.  Look at Stanford's 1970 season, 7 Pac-8 games plus Arkansas, Purdue, Air Force and San Jose St.  Back then San Jose St. would have been looked on as the "Body Bag Game".  In 1971 Stanford played Missouri, Army, Duke and San Jose St.

Of course, in 1971 San Jose St. defeated Stanford 13-12. I don't think that could be classed as a "body bag game". Overall Stanford is 52–14–1 against San Jose St. Pretty dominant, but not as if San Jose St. never wins. Notre Dame leads the series against Stanford 23-14. Should that game not be played? Stanford also lost to Duke in 1971 9-3.

I think Stanford is 8-6 against Notre Dame in the last 14 games. Yes, I'm cherry-picking...
