Do you think if the US had relegation between, say, the USL and MLS it would create more interest in kickball? We do not have an MLS team. The local USL team won the US Open Cup in 1999, and the USL in 2015. They have a 13-14k seat stadium, but not too many people go to the games. Maybe it would generate a little more buzz.

I do not. No. I do not like relegation in general.

I think it will. Herbie will be here to empirically prove it at any point.

I remember when "everybody" agreed with Nigel that it was so much harder to make the final four in football out of 110 teams than in basketball with 350 teams. Do you think the Big 10 needs to re-evaluate the divisions? - Page 2 502811600

I don't remember that but it's definitely accurate.

New divisions according to the scum fans and ESPiN:
Leaders Division: Scum
Not Worthy Division: Everyone else

That way scum is forever in the championship game no matter what happens during the regular season.
ESPiN will have permanent erections until hairball gets taken to the shed.

I think we should keep the divisions the same. Just rotate coaches. That way Dantonio wins a conference title every three years and Harbs keeps his streak of zero alive as well.

Writer from Land of Ten says it’s time for MSU to move to the West, sending Purdue to the East Division.

Move MSU to the west. Just means more title conference games.

by **tGreenWay** 2018-06-01, 17:46

Strength of schedule concerns me in the West. Rankings and quality of bowl games could take a hit, but if we’re playing lesser quality teams, it’s not preparing us for the B1G championship and whichever bowl we wind up in.

Sporting News has 4 Big Ten East teams in top 12 preseason.

We're the new SEC east/west combined bitchez.

I agree with GreenWay - keep us in the East. Wanting to move to the west so we have a better chance at Indy sounds like something UM fans would say.
