The Big 10 stats quoted are pretty meaningless
Quoting how many teams are over 0.500 in conference? That says nothing about the difficulties of cross-country travel. Says close to nothing about anything really. At least look at away records. Maybe even dare to look at longer vs. shorter trips...which based on a quick look at how the west coast B1G teams have done on their longest trips isn't all that compelling.

There's nothing to "hold up." That's kind of the point.**
