Big-10 Conference Realignment

[SuperDuck]

This is what the east and west divisions look like now. I can't imagine any of the Pac-12 schools being placed in the east.

I wonder which teams will be moved east?

More than likely it’ll be two divisions. But the idea of 3 divisions was interesting to me too.

My understanding was that next season the B10 would not have division and have a Flex something model. Meaning that you played every team at least once every four years.

Also hearing there is a chance of no Div, we would play UW yearly, but play everyone else every other year. So SC one year then ucla, Michigan than MSU the next year type of thing.

Interesting. So they'd just take the top two teams and have them play for the championship?

That seems odd because there are enough teams to have 9 per division. You could almost play round robin with that.

I can understand splitting up the LA schools each year as it will allow more teams to get exposure in that market.

It still seems odd.

i think divisions help the western four the most while doing nothing for the old members, which would be why its an option
