help with expanding PAC 10 and Big 10
 

If Notre Dame was to join the big 10 and make it 12 teams. Then how would they break them up into 2 divisions of 6?

Also if the PAC 10 expands to 12 what two teams would they add and how would they align the divisions?

Thanks
Walt

if i were doing the big 10(12) in two divisions, it would look something like this.

notre dame
osu
michigan
mich. st.
purdue
indiana




minnesota
penn st.
iowa
wisconsin
northwestern
illinois

If keeping some balance of power based on traditionally stronger teams, I agree with 5-13. If your ef big ten has no relation to the real teams, I might consider switching Penn State and Northwestern to the first group and Indiana Purdue to the second to make it more of a North/East vs. South/West grouping, while keeping traditional rivals together (Notre Dame with UM/MSU/PSU).

Pac-10 North

Washington
Washington State
Oregon
Oregon State
BYU
Utah

Pac-10 South

Cal
Stanford
Arizona State
Arizona
UCLA
USC

If you divided the big 10 into 2 divisions it could go East and West Divisions.

West
Wisconsin
Minnesota
Illinois
Iowa
Northwestern
Purdue
(Note: Purdue is the farthest west out of all the Indiana Colleges)

East
Penn St.
Ohio St.
Michigan
Michigan St.
Indiana
Notre Dame

As for your Pac 10 question two teams that I would love to see play Pac10 ball are Boise St. and Fresno St. But its hard to put Boise St. into a division so heres how I would align the divisions.
