I think academics also come into play in B10. Nwestern is a jewel in that regard.

Yeah it will take a generation or so before it becomes real. I still con't consider Penn State to be a bona fide B10 school; not by consciuos decision but because that's how it feels.

That may not be the case in your conference but it is a factor for others. B10 is one of them. It isn't the only factor but it is a factor.

Nebraska/Iowa will be a rivarly because of the border and both schools field pretty good teams. Nebraska/OSU, Nebraska/Pen State, Nebraska/Michigan all could become potential rivalries 1. because of history 2. potential success.

LOL, as much as Iowa/Illinois sends ripples across the college football landscape.

All B10 are AAU, NU was AAU at the time of admission. Pisses me off they lost it. Interesting how it happened....
After endorsing the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's entrance into the Big Ten Conference -- in part because of its academic strength -- leaders at the universities of Wisconsin and Michigan apparently helped oust UNL from an elite academic group, according to documents reviewed by the Journal Star. Nebraska failed to garner the 21 votes it needed last April to remain in the Association of American Universities, a confederation of more than 60 top research institutions that collectively nets more than half of all federal research funds and awards more than half of the doctoral degrees in the nation. It was confirmed that UNL fell three votes short. Emails and letters obtained by the Journal Star after a series of open-records requests indicate that Wisconsin and Michigan did not support UNL during its turbulent and unsuccessful AAU membership review earlier this year....

Do you disagree that academics are a factor in the B10s membership decision process, or do you disagree that Nwestern is a jewel in that regard?
