    This thread won't die. It might go dark for a bit but as long as there is any instability in the P5 (looking at you B12) there will be a chance for more upheaval. Teams like KSU, Baylor, Iowa St could find themselves on the outside looking in and it is good that WSU will already be seated in a better conference before the dominoes tumble again.
    One quick note before we present the rankings: With Wichita State’s move to the American Athletic Conference, the Shockers have moved out of the mid-major club. We wish the Shockers well against Cincinnati, UConn, SMU, and more.

      According to Light Lord you're just a 25 watt light from seeing things your kind wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. Watching C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time… like tears in rain. Oh, your minions have just reported to the mother ship...the want their mommy.

          One and the same. He can keep our outgrown britches once we leave.

          • I doN't know that a change in Conference will chaNge all that muCh for Next year's Championship aspirations.
            The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
            We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

            • UConn's women just lost in overtime to Mississippi State, ending their unbelievably long win streak.

                UConn looked like a team that had no idea how to play a close game.

                Gotta give it to MSU.

                  • I usually don't like dynasties, but I do enjoy watching UConn. That being said, I was very happy for MSU. You could tell how much that game meant to all of them.

                        • On the assumption that we move, I predict basketball season tickets will no longer have 2 free women's basketball tickets to any woman as home game. There will be an asterisk, for the Uconn game.

                            Last year, in the Sweet 16, UConn beat Mississippi State 98-38 so, yeah, I think this was unbelievably important and meaningful to the them.

                            One thing that did surprise me a bit is that UConn had ittle to no depth on their team.

                              Memphis got Ole Miss and OU, and Cincinnati got Butler and Iowa State. Those are just two I looked at. Just based o that, I think there is potential to get a 'good' P5 to come to CKA. Maybe 2 after settling in a AAC.
