[Husker] Names for the Big Ten divisions

[Gary Doyle]

The best reply I saw on Twitter about conference divisions:

"If Big 10 really wanted to distinguish themselves from SEC with new division 
names, they could have gone with 'Read' and 'Write'"

There's something ironic about naming the two divisions using the names
of individuals from a school that is no longer part of the conference
and doesn't even play football.  

Will we see a host of post-season basketball awards named for basketball 
players and coaches?  

It is unlikely that they'll create the Knight sportsmanship award (or 
the Pelini one, it seems.)
