What is your understanding of the correct abbreviation for The Big Ten Conference?

I just use B10 as it is more understandable. I hate the Delaney approved BIG or whatever it is. Maybe they should call it the OSUM and others conference, because that’s how the higher ups in the conference like it.

Can't call it the Big 2 when Delany is turning a blind eye to protect the biggest child sex abuse scandal in the history of intercollegiate athletics at MSU.
 
$20m is big money for a guy whose conference’s teams never make it to the playoffs. For comparisons sake, what does the MAC commissioner make?

I think they wanted to memorialize the conference history by keeping the original brand name. Can't have all that OSU and Michigan history fade from memory.

Here's to hoping for a complete reshuffling of the 80 largest schools into 8 B1Gs, enabling 2 or 3 out of conference preseason games.

I can see that douchebag Delany now. Sitting down behind a big desk smoking a cigar in one hand with a glass of jim Beam in the other saying to our school president who's standing out in front with his head bowed and hands clasped Rod, I like how you handle responsibility so I'm gonna blame some stuff on you. LOL Probably not too far from the truth!

Yeah, except what he really said was “Rod, you have a really soft mouth”.

Is it just me or does anyone else find it horribly stupid that they still call the conference the Big 10? I think the “Big North” sounds pretty cool, is actually accurate, and maintains the adjective “Big” so the traditionalists don’t freak out.
 
I can’t stand the conference simply because they can’t count... or choose not to count.

It fourteen f@cking schools!

Big ten. How stupid is that?

Yes, I actually feel like a moron everytime I say the term “Big Ten”. I feel it’s like being forced to pretend you believe in Santa Claus as to not upset kids that are around.
