Looks like the Big 10 (the original) is thinking seriously about changing its name. Big Ten Contemplating a Name Change
Really and truly I think they should stick with the Big 10, it's a historical brand that will be next to impossible to replace. The could go with something like the Central Athletic Confernce of Colleges and Associations. CACCA
I am very comfortable with the current name. Even though it does not reflect the actual number of conference teams, what differece does that make? Change is not always good! Don
In deference to the Rust Belt in which so much of the conference resides why not.......The Big Tin.......
