It's debatable just what divisional makeup will give the best balance. It's by no means clear that Nebraska/Iowa/Wisconsin doesn't balance out OSU/Michigan/PSU. If we are to forgo the obvious east-west split, the evidence needs to be pretty compelling. There is insufficient reason to think that Iowa and Wisconsin will not be able to keep up their quality of play. Minnesota has won 6 national championships, but no one factors that in, for example, nor should they. If we must not focus too much on the recent, we must also not focus too much on the past. As someone else observed, Priceton was once a power. Besides, the Big Ten is likely to expand further anyway, and there will be an opportunity to reconsider divisions at that point. Congratulations on joining the Big Ten, it will be fun when Nebraska comes up to Minnesota. (At least more fun than the last time!
