I don't think Penn State is midwestern and it doesn't belong in the Big 10.
Most Penn State grads look East for jobs, and they don't end up in Chicago. |

I say Detroit, Cleveland, and Chicago. I'm not sure about Omaha. It seems more plains to me.

In my mind there are 2 different debates going on here at once. One is a geographical debate, of what states are actually in the "midwest" and as far as that goes, "thePR" Posted nicely what that consisted of.
The other debate is more of cultural a standpoint of the midwest, and correct me if I'm wrong most people are focused on that aspect. There is a huge difference in comparing chicago, detroit, and cleveland to Say Omaha, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo, because of the midwest culuture |
