Just Desserts for KU and KSU?

[KC Shox]

With the PAC 10 wanting 6 big 12 schools, the Big 10 wanting Mizzou and Nebraska. Where does that leave KU and KSU? The Mountain West? Can you see all the KU fans react to the news that they would be joining the Mountain West? The President might have to send the National Guard to the NE Kansas region should this happen.

[BenWSU]

KU, KSU, & Iowa State = Big 3

Have to feel sorry - sorta - for fans of other Big 12 schools living in Kansas when you consider those teams won't be on ABC and/or FSN on a regular basis.

You forgot Baylor. So when the divide into North and South would that put KU in the south with Baylor?

[InWuWeTrust]

[shock10]

I hope ku land's in the toilet.

[Shirley Schmidt]

Who cares?

[KC Shox]

Who cares?

Evidently 99 percent of Shockernet members - I'm sure you have seen all the expansion talk in the basketball forum.

[ShockTalk]

Well, this is may be the "other shoe" I was hoping wouldn't drop. MWC eyeing KU, Missouri, and K St. With the recent additional of Boise St., the MWC wants to make a strong case to get into the BCS.

I guess the better question would be is why would anyone care?

Big 12 as Countries - :D

Texas is like the USA - Wealthy, talented, and with seemingly endless
resources. They have a big ego, but are deserving of it because they
win at almost everything they do. Others often despise them out of
jealousy. Their money and wealth make the world go round, and everyone
wants a piece.

Texas A&M is like China - Big, powerful, and rival of Texas (USA).
They live in a male dominated society, and thus their women are not
allowed to be cheerleaders. Their money and power also make the world
go round.

Oklahoma is like Mexico - Having no resources of their own, they have
to invade the border of Texas (USA) in order to survive.

Oklahoma State is like Venezuela - There wasn't a whole lot there to
start with, but without the oil money they would be nothing there at
all. They have a crazy guy in charge who often shouts nonsense when
he speaks.

Baylor is like Israel - A feisty little religious enclave that could
not survive without Texas (USA). However, if provoked, they WILL kill
you.

Colorado is like Canada - A small, unimportant bastion of liberals who
are not very good at anything. Like Canada, they are bad at all sports
other than hockey. Like Canada, they produce no GDP.

Nebraska is like Russia - A former super power who frequently stirs up
trouble because they still think they are a super power. Nebraska
(Russia) thinks it is the equal of Texas (USA), and pouts in public
when it doesn't get its baby way. When they do not get their way, they
take their ball and go home. Go big RED!

Missouri is like Iran and North Korea - a definite member of the axis
of evil. Conniving and loyal to no one, you can not believe anything
they say (you can only watch in amazement at what they do). Like Iran
and North Korea, they are hated and despised by everyone--even the
Swiss.

Iowa State is like Switzerland - Boring, unimportant, not good at much
of anything, but neutral and without enemies. Even the hawkeyes like
the Swiss.

Texas Tech is like Australia - Big, dusty, and a Texas version of
"down under". Cowboys like Aussie's drink a lot of beer and carry
weapons.

KU is like France - KU is full of socialists and they think they are
better than everyone else. This high opinion of themselves is not
shared by anyone else in the world. Like France, KU can not be trusted
or counted on during a time of need.

K-State is like Ireland - A gritty, feisty, over-achieving little
country with a large inferiority complex. What we lack in resources,
we make up by determination and people. Others can't find us on a map,
but they like us because we are fun, friendly, and like to drink beer.

We? Obviously a KSU fan wrote that. How are they over-achieving again? The last thing they've done that's relevant is win the Big 12 in football 7 years ago. Wow, impressive.

They just about went to the Final 4. Pretty nice accomplishment.

LOL. Do you hang a banner for that: "Almost went to a Final Four 2010".
