RPI WATCH: 12/2/11

The New Math: The Day 10 Equals 12 - Or The Day Nebraska Finally Pushed the Big Ten to 12 Teams
Hard to believe it was a little over a year ago that this happened: The Big Ten Council of Presidents/Chancellors (COP/C) announced unanimous approval today for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) to join the Big Ten Conference effective July 1, 2011, with competition to begin in all sports...
