MMQB - What Other Conference Would You Enjoy?

The off season is in full swing, and MMQB’s mind is wandering. Penn State has been in the Big Ten since the early 90s, after an all-east coast conference failed to come to fruition.

For the most part, I’ve felt like the B1G has been a good home for Penn State. The conspiracy theorist in me wonders about how hard Dear Old State was punished back in 2011, and the current lack of repercussions for Michigan, and as always the refs are a question.

But still, the sports are comparable, the academic institutions themselves are mostly in line with research and academic standards, and geographically things work out with contiguous access (at least to the midwest schools).
