Big 12 Auditions

[DDaileyuconn]

When Uconn play Kansas in the 2nd round, maybe the selection committee chairman Joe Castiglione Oklahoma AD, wants to see how we travel outside the east cost, could this be an audition for a big 12 bid?

Ummm, I am not sure if you have heard but basketball does not matter for expansion. Well, when UConn is winning National Championships it does not matter for expansion. In the event UConn were to lose or not pack the arena then it would suddenly become the penultimate decider for conference expansion....

For more explanation... see rule #1

Let's worry about beating Colorado before we even think about taking down Kansas

We all know football moves the needle, but Uconn vs Kansas in BB, let's not fool ourselves that would be huge brand wise

The conspiracy theorist in me wants to believe that it wasn't any accident that we would play Kansas in a potential 2nd round matchup. Yes, I know, we have to beat Colorado first. But the buzz surrounding a UConn/Kansas 2nd round game would be tough to match for any other game played on Saturday/Sunday. Would be GREAT for B12 people to see what kind of attention such a game generates.

Delaney was there when we backed MSG and beat Mich St in 2014. We gotta do this again?

Des Moines has a good chance of having a Final Four quality second round. Kansas, UConn, Kentucky and Indiana. Four of the most accomplished programs of all time. UConn.

20 National Championships between the four teams.

Kentucky- 8
Indiana- 5
UConn-4
Kansas- 3
