I always had this skit in my head where the Big 12 was split into 2 divisions and they were called the "Steers" and "Queers". They would have the conference meeting and the commissioner would say "Ok raise you hand if you prefer to be in Steers. Ok. Now raise your hand if you want to be in the Queers. Oh come on people you can't ALL be in the Steers.!"

Would have been brilliant if at some point the Big Ten has been full of head coaches that had worked under/played under either Bo or Woody. Otherwise, too limiting. And besides, how would you know who was in what division (besides Michigan and Ohio State)?

Using the term Wildcat to describe a direct snap to anyone other than a QB is like calling any rock band from the early 90s Grunge.

East / West.  It works for every other sport.  So what if Detroit is in the Western conference in one sport and the Eastern conference in another?  Who cares?  It works. 

Wisconsin is east of some Big Ten teams, and west of some others.  I pretty sure they will still live.
