==Stadium Capacities==
Any Wikipedian, please create this section if you have time.
The table on stadium capacities isn't currently properly arranging football stadium capacities from smallest to largest or largest to smallest when requested. Somehow OSU and PSU end up being ranked as larger than Michigan. The rankings work for basketball and baseball.

See the discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College baseball#Standardize conference pages' facility sections]].
I disagree. The only sections written for any sport are under the heading "rivalries," for which I think, only football should be listed. The Big Ten has long been known for its intense football rivalries, but men's basketball has been tepid at best (I'm talking about rivalries, not level of play). I think the men's basketball section should be removed, if anything.
While I agree that women's basketball is an important sport for the conference, the overall repuation of play and fan interest simply doesn't support a section for that moreso than any other sport. The Big Ten is by no means known for its women's basketball, ranking typically between the 6th and 8th best conference in the country. I'd suggest instead a list of the national championships and other national accolades won by memebers of the conference across all sports.

== Wikitable for future schedules ==
Why does [[Western Conference]] redirect to this article? --[[User:All in|All in]] 03:55, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
::''The conference’s official name throughout the time was still the Intercollegiate Conference of Faculty Representatives and was also known as the Western Conference. It did not formally adopt the name Big Ten until 1987 when it was incorporated as a not-for-profit corporation.'' ... but it needs to be a dab. -- [[User:Jjjsixsix|Jjjsixsix]] <sup>[[User talk:Jjjsixsix|(t)]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:Contributions/Jjjsixsix|(c)]]</sub> <small>@</small> 03:59, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
:::But there are other Western Conferences. I think "Western Conference" should be a disambig page. For example, in the NHL, NBA, WHL, etc. I'm sure there are many others. --[[User:Thirty-seven|thirty-seven]] 00:10, 18 May 2006 (UTC)--[[User:Thirty-seven|thirty-seven]] 00:09, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
::::Agreed, I noticed this the other day but did not have time to fix. I created the disambig page now. ([[User:Terryn3|Terryn3]] 22:44, 18 May 2006 (UTC))


Here is a template for a wikitable to make it easy to put the future opponents in an organized format. The future non-conference opponent template is almost impossible to edit due to its vertical format. Replace "Big Ten name" with the team name + nickname (without the word football) to put the appropriate team colors in the table).
==Not the Oldest==
The Big Ten is not oldest college athletic conference. That title goes the the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association, founded in founded March 24, 1888. [http://www.miaa.org/history/ MIAA History]. The Big Ten was founded on January 11, 1895 [http://bigten.cstv.com/trads/big10-trads.html Big Ten History]. --[[User:Colslax|Colslax]] 23:05, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I think the map would be MUCH more useful if the members were listed by date. Rutgers joined in 2014 but is first on the list? LOL. At least, if there's reasonable resistance to that, add the year they (last) joined in the key.[[Special:Contributions/98.17.180.146|98.17.180.146]] ([[User talk:98.17.180.146|talk]]) 18:44, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
