Big Ten selling out tradition

Ohio State and Michigan should be placed in the same division and meet in the final game of the regular season. It works for Auburn-Alabama, Texas-Texas A&M and a host of other great rivalries that have survived the super conference era. It's a nod to the concept that these are more than just games, that they aren't just a product to package for television, that in college football, tradition should be honored, not reworked in the hope of a ratings bump.
