Big Ten Conference
American collegiate athletics conference
The Big Ten Conference is a collegiate athletic conference in the United States.

It is based in Rosemont, Illinois. For many decades the conference consisted of ten prominent universities, which accounts for its name. On August 2, 2024, the conference expanded to 18 member institutions and two affiliate institutions.
