Jim Delany talks Michigan-Ohio State

Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany told me today that the league is about 80 percent done with the division alignments, and he hopes to make an announcement by mid September. But he can confirm one part of the plan right now: Ohio State and Michigan will play every year.

"We're not losing the Ohio State-Michigan game," Delany said.

That's nice, but the big uproar right now relates to when The Game will be played. Momentum has been building since Big Ten media days that the archrivals could be placed in different divisions and have their matchup moved off of the final regular-season Saturday. A lot of folks aren't happy about this at all.
