Don't like the logo.

I'm OK with the names.

Obvious Big Ten bias.

A team that is 6th in its division will still be referred to as a "leader." That's just not right.

The conference thought broke from the norm. Now, the conference is driving conversation.

I think the conference had to do something difference because it couldn't use East-West, North-South because of the crossover from Michigan into Minnesota's division.

It'll take some getting used to and people may be confused as to who is in which division, but it will settle in time.

Let's go undefeated in the bowls!

Another example how the Big 10 is driving the conversation.

Like Michigan's fight song says, "The Leaders and Best". That's pretty accurate as far as I'm concerned.

And Minnesota corn is pretty darn good.

Iowa suspended/kicked off half of their offensive skill players... There is literally a 2 percent chance they win the Insight Bowl.

But then if they are indeed "The Leaders" why are they in the "Legends". :?

Sorry General it is just dumb! :lol:

Best name would be Cold 12, divisions would be the artic and antartic divisions.


Would that mean the SEC would be be the Hot 12 with the heat and humidity divisions?

My first thought on this logo was how easily it will be to make it "Big 16."
