Those division names are pretty stpuid and not that accurate... I think they should go with something more appropriate...

How about one division named "Can't Count" and the second named "The Other Five"?

It seems directly comparable to "dumb and dumber" which must have been the first choice but was vetoed on vote.

It is now official why we didn't join the Big10 this year....because we'd be the ONLY team in the Legends division. :)

What a waste of 30 minutes. Once this guy is gone, things might finally get off the ground. I'm glad we have a Championship game and divisions, but I'm waiting for something like THIS...

Breaking News: Nebraska to remain in the Big12 due to worst named divisions in sports.

LOGO: looks like a 7th graders Art project. (great for a 7th grader, not so great for the big10)

Division Names: perhaps the dumbest idea out of all of this Big10 stuff. Legends/Leaders? come on...the only sport that can pull of naming their divisions is the NHL. and they got rid of that at the end of '93. Plus, the NHL had their divisions named after ppl.

Dual-named trophies: I kinda like seeing Paterno on the championship trophy; The Hayes-Schembechler trophy is cool; I'm a little suprised they included anything with Woody Hayes' name on it.

Really? Leaders and Legends? Those aren't division names, they're positions of people. God forbid we just stick to what works--North, South, East, and West.

This is beyond dumb, and I honestly cannot even come up with a proper condescending insult. Think about that, I'm at a loss for what to say, that should sum up how terrible this is for everyone.

They were really trying hard to please everyone with this. It shows how scarred the big ten is of hurting anyones feelings...

Bo Division Hayes Division
Lakes Division Plains Division
Corn Division Grain Division

Any of those. Anything that is pure Midwest would've been fine.

WOW, just stunning. These folks running the b10 get more incompetent every day. Hahah what a PR nightmare they are going to be waking up too.

That would be a conference I wouldn't mind ND joining. Although I would flip Nebraska and Purdue.

They'd be a locked in cross-over game. Everyone wins with that conference. The final regular season games could be...

Iowa vs Minnesota
Michigan vs Nebraska
ND vs MSU
Iowa State vs Missouri
Ohio State vs Wisconsin
Penn State vs Pitt
Illinois vs NW
Indiana vs Purdue

What is Iowa State doing in there? Syracuse, Kentucky, or Cincinnati would be better fits. Iowa State just isn't a good sports school.

Could just be the "Gunna get beat in the Rose Bowl" division vs "Gunna get beat in the Championship by the SEC" division

Tony K on PTI just read a good one for the division names: Three & Out

How about the Maurice Clarett & Lawrence Phillips divisions?

I've gotta think that someone who has enough authority such as a tressel or pelini will make the big 10 recognize how stupid this is and get it changed.
