1. Big Ten fans understand football is meant to be played in crisp air, and the walk to the stadium should look just like this shot from Indiana University.
2. Fortunately Big Ten fans know the best ways to stay warm. Particularly in the frigid night games in Madison, Wisconsin.
3. Cold weather just gives you more opportunities to wear team gear, as this Purdue Boilermakers fan shows.
4. The University of Michigan Wolverines also know how to dress for the weather, and their maize and blue threads were declared victor of ESPN's "Best Uniform Bracket."
Not to be outdone, Nebraska's vaunted Black Shirts are a legendary tradition in Lincoln.
As is the "Scarlet Walk" before a game at Rutgers University.
5. And nothing keeps you warm like a barn-burning rivalry. The University of Minnesota and University of Wisconsin have squared off 124 times for a chance to raise Paul Bunyan's Axe in victory.
6. On a cold day in Columbus, you have to keep moving. The mind-bending physics of The Ohio State University Marching Band's tribute shows are clearly the best in the land.
