Interesting that the teams change names but...

The colors remain the same.

Looking back at our old Big 8 teams. I am amazed at how the teams of similar colors take on similar character.

Most annoying team to lose to.
Big 8 Puffs=B1G Iowa

Team that was bad for a long time but became a perennial challenger
Big 8 KSU=B1G NWU
Bonus points for the same mascot

Team that should be better more often as a result of recruiting proximity
Big 8 Mizzou = B1G Purdue

perennial bottom feeder who we lose to occassionally
Big 8 ISU =B1G Minny
This was the biggest stretch on colors but close enough

Team toughest to get over
Big 8 Dirt Burglars = B1G Wisky

Team who is in the middle of great recruiting but gets no respect. But has had 1 or 2 of the greatest players ever.
Big 8 OSU =B1G Illinois

Just found it interesting how the colors matched up.

Only someone with a lot of time on their hands could do that research. Thought maybe cable or a power outage inspired you. Joking with you.

I assumed it was a joke. Just did not fully understand what you were getting at. :thumbsup:
 
Big 12 Oklahoma = B1G Ohio State "Home of the bandwagon fans"

Big 12 Texas = B1G Michigan "Penicillin can't cure this kind of itch"

Big 12 Oklahoma State = B1G Rutgers "Money pits for millionaires"

Big 12 Texas A & M = B1G Michigan State "Nobody knows them unless they upset their state rival"

Big 12 Kansas State = B1G Wisconsin "Just good enough to screw it up for everyone"

Big 12 West Virginia = B1G Nebraska "The move was a shot in the pocketbook and a shock to the record sheet"

Big 12 Iowa State = B1G Purdue "That hissing sound either comes from blowing or sucking, you pick"

Big 12 Kansas = B1G Indiana "Even a blind squirrel can finds a nut once in awhile... Is it basketball season yet?"

Big 12 Texas Tech = B1G Illinois "Two of the biggest schools, yet size is an inverse relationship to their success"

Big 12 Missouri = B1G Penn State "Everyone knows them, nobody likes these cats"

Big 12 Colorado = B1G Iowa "Nobody in the respective conference would miss either one... history proves it"

Big 12 Texas Christian = B1G Northwestern "Private, keep out!"

Big 12 Baylor = B1G Notre Dame "Although both are big money schools and play respective member schools, only one of them has the class to actually join the conference"

B1G Maryland & B1G Minnesota "Battle of the lawn pests" (Big 12 has no more teams to compare with so I pit them together)

When was Maryland in the Big 12???
 
I ran out of Big 12 at ten. :)

And this list is cheating by adding ex-Big 12 members Colorado, Texas A&M, and Missouri just to stretch it out!
