What Big Ten football used a 3-5-5 scheduling model?

Good afternoon, Big Ten football fans!

Earlier today the ACC announced their new 3-5-5 scheduling model which will be enacted prior to the start of the 2023 season. Under this new model, each of the ACC’s 14 (football) members’ eight conference games will consist of 3 against the same 3 teams each year, and 5 games against half of the remaining 10 which will flip each year. The ACC chose this model so they could maintain beloved rivalries while ridding themselves of divisions and the Championship Game controversies that come with them. Pour one out for the Coastal, y’all.
