New Big Ten Logo, Names

The Big Ten released the new logo, as the old logo had a hidden "11" which doesn't make sense with the twelve teams next year. Additionally, the Big Ten released the names of the divisions for football, and the name for the Championship game and awards. Below you will see the logo and the names.
 
Divisions:
Legends: Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, and Northwestern
Leaders: Ohio State, Penn State, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Purdue.
 
The championship game trophy will be named the Stagg-Paterno Championship Trophy, in honor of former University of Chicago coach Amos Alonzo Stagg and Penn State coach Joe Paterno.

The MVP of the championship game will be named the Grange-Griffin winner, in honor of OSU two-time Heisman winner Archie Griffin and Illinois' Red Grange.

The conference coach of the year will be named the Hayes-Schembechler Coach of the Year, in honor of former OSU coach Woody Hayes and Michigan's Bo Schembechler.
