One of our best hopes for conference realignment is that an enemy nation launches an EMP strike over the contintental United States, thus destroying the power grid and all electronics. Then and only then will college sports resort to regional conferences, where basketball will be played outside and teams will travel via horse-drawn carriage or steamboat.
Imagine a conference with UConn, BC, Providence, Syracuse, St. Johns, Georgetown, Maryland, Villanova, Seton Hall, and Penn State. All accessible by carriage. Games played on Saturdays in the night. Cold, but doable.
If this was the potential outcome of an EMP strike, sign me up for a nuclear blast instead.
