Big Ten to announce divisions tonight

The wait is over.

The Big Ten will officially announce its two divisions tonight at 6 p.m., the conference announced Wednesday. Schedules for the 2011 and 2012 season will also be released as Nebraska joins the conference next season.

Multiple reports indicate that Michigan and Ohio State will be split up into separate divisions.

A source told 670TheScore.com that there will not be divisions for men's basketball, contrary to an ESPN.com report earlier Wednesday that said the Big Ten could revert back to a 16-game basketball schedule in which teams would play division opponents twice.
