This is awesome news. I'm still hoping we can get the UConn - KU matchup I've been hoping for since the two in the 90s.

Good. Maybe we can play someone worth a damn for once.

Great news. May it be the beginning of a more permanent basketball marriage!

EMAW is their slogan.

is that an acronym?

Can't wait for the games against Houston and UCF. Like old times.

Yes. Every Man A Wildcat. Pretty lame.

Wasn't there an agreement that we had to play 3 AAC teams in OOC games as part of our exit deal? Does it count if we play them while they're in the B12?

 

[Hoophound]

I’d like to play KU and WVU. The end.

That conference is DOA. Let’s not give Baylor and TTU the pleasure. Couldn’t care less about UC, UCF or Houston. (Nothing against Kelvin Sampson, a great coach)

 

[shizzle787]

Yes. Now we are forced to play a good OOC opponent.

where are the BE teams going that the Big12 teams aren't?

 

[HuskyHawk]

Who would you pull for?

UConn of course. Just like the two games in the 90s. I was at Kemper when we lost as #2. Brutal. I've never rooted against KU at AFH, that would be different. I would definitely make the trip for it.
