What H/H Series Would You Like To See (excluding KU/KSU)?

UMKC...since I live here...

I know UMKC is going to be an RPI hit but I did enjoy going to those games in KC. If we had to have an RPI hit game I'd take UMKC.

[DUShock]

Any Blue Blood.

[GarH]

San Diego State is the one I'd like to see most. I'd definitely go to San Diego to see that one.

Any time we play in the CBE we should just do a roadie @ UMKC the Saturday before. Most MTEs are 3 games over 4 days anyways. As bad as UMKC is, they're still a better opponent than 3 Valley teams this year ($&#%)

I concur about umkc. I have a soft spot in my heart for them. I was actually in kc recently and got to watch a game on their local tv coverage. It was fun...but they didn't look too good at the moment.

New coach I believe, so you never know. Maybe he will get them humming soon.

On the pregame, Mike said we are also talking to a westcoast school who "is as big a name as there is, in college basketball."

I can only assume that is UCLA.

That would be epic.

I believe he mentioned that on the Play Angry podcast.

Florida, Michigan State and Arizona. This team should be seen coast to coast.

With discussions of potential H/H series with UCONN and Purdue in the future, with other teams would you like to see H/H with? (I exclude KU and KSU because those answers are obvious and not fun)

I have pitches for many, but due to time constraints, I'll go with these five: Louisville, Memphis, San Diego St, Colorado and Cinci.

------------

1) Louisville: I pick them for the obvious reason of our recent Final Four matchup, but more importantly though; Rick Pitino. Pitino was so complementary and impressed with our program (not in a "fake for the press" type of way either). I feel because of this, a series is at least plausible.

2) Memphis: We share a lot of similarities with the Memphis program. We were both high-major programs, in mid-major conferences (until this season). Both programs are located in metropolitan areas. Both universities are basketball schools with good history. I just think it would be a fun series.

3) SDSU: Ever since we played in sunny San Deigo, I have been impressed with their program. Would be cool to revisit this matchup. (Even cooler if we became conference foes, but that's another dream entirely. Might I also add the MWC tourney is in Vegas? I mean STL is fun and all, but Vegas?! Sign me up!!)

4) Colorado: This one is because of the obvious Tad Boyle connection and the fact the Buffalo have been good lately. I believe it would work for three reasons: A) Distance is good B) Would be good for both programs C) I think Tad has the stones that certain other coaches that we know don't.

5) Cinci: This is purely for the nostalgia. Two former MVC heavyweights going toe-to-toe. Watch out.

We would want to play the return game at INTRUST Arena...

We would want to play the away game in Hawaii.

Personally, I'd rather WSU v Memphis be a conference game...

Yes, have some.

Would be nice.

What 3 are we working on? Purdue, UCLA, and......who? UConn?
