The Roman numerals have been cause for contention in the past. One example: league officials prefer that the league be referred to as the “Big 12” in print, as opposed to the “Big XII.”
According to the Big 12 Conference's website, the use of the alternate names "Big Twelve" and "Big XII" are incorrect; the trademarked name of the conference is "Big 12 Conference" (notwithstanding that the conference logo features the Roman numeral XII).
