BXII seems much more appealing to me for a few reasons:
1) it interests me zero to play the likes of Rutgers, Maryland, Penn State or Indiana. Although I suppose if we weren't already used to playing WVU, TCU and BU, they probably wouldnt interest me at all either.
2) if we at times feel like we get pushed around by Oklahoma and Texas, I cant imagine having to deal with the egomania at Michigan and tOSU
3) Would move the basketball conference tournament away from KC
4) culturally and ideologically it appears our current administration is a better fit with current BXII schools than with B10
5) Basketball. Like with p.1 maybe its my lack of familiarity, but B10 basketball is typically boring as hell. Anybody excited to watch Northwestern play Penn State on a Tuesday night?
One plus for joining the B10 would be all close proximity regional rivalries. It'd be great to develop solid rivalries with Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois. It does suck to not really have a natural rival other than sorta KSU and KU int he BXII.
