CLEVELAND - The 2010 college football season is all ready to go Thursday night. But all the talk points to the Big Ten expansion for 2011.
The Big Ten announced its breakdown Wednesday night into two unnamed divisions separating OSU and Michigan starting with the 2011 season, but the two teams will still preserve its end of regular season rival game.
The two will face off November 27th, 2010 in Columbus.
Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said the factors for determining divisions were based on three things: competitive equality, rivalries and geography.
With Nebraska joining next season the conference will consist of 12 teams.
Here’s the division breakdown for next season:
- OHIO STATE
- PENN STATE
- WISCONSIN
- ILLINOIS
- PURDUE
- INDIANA
- MICHIGAN
- MICHIGAN STATE
- IOWA
- NEBRASKA
- MINNESOTA
- NORTHWESTERN
