Because I am bored

[Get_over_it]

I asked AI to create a new conference that UK football could be competitive in and also it had to be a strong basketball conference. This is what AI came up with, if this happened would you be upset or excited?

Heartland Conference — 14 Teams​

1. Kentucky
2. Louisville
3. Cincinnati
4. West Virginia
5. Virginia Tech
6. NC State
7. Pittsburgh
8. Virginia
9. South Carolina
10. North Carolina
11. Georgia Tech
12. Wake Forest
13. Syracuse
14. Duke

The hoops requirement ruined the makeup.

 

[Get_over_it]

I had to add that requirement. As much as I love football I love UK basketball a little more.

Surprised no Kansas

Yeah Kansas would be nice for basketball, but they would bring nothing for football.

I just wish UK was independent like ND and whoever else. Screw these conferences. Screw the SEC. I love seeing the big 10 whoop *** and win the title going on what three years?

If UK could get a massive deak like ND has with NBC it would work, but if UK went independent they would go bankrupt.

 

[CGBlue1.0]

Too heavy on ACC teams for me, and if it's called Heartland it needs reach out to the Midwest.

 

[DonAndy]

How possible would it be to get a deal like that?

If we lined up against them in football I bet we give them a damn good game. And then basketball is well the best program in the nation when it gets back running right. We have the fan base.

So our brand is unique and good enough imo.

I just puked in my mouth.

Until Pope is gone, basketball first decisions about athletics should be placed on hold.

That is one mid-azz conference. No thank you. Lets just get good at football and call it a day.

all day long. Even if you removed the share of the billion plus dollar contract.

 

[GoAndRunIsGoneAndDone]

I'm happy where we are from a competition standpoint, including all sports. I think we can compete in the sec with fb but we will never dominate it in the sec. At a glance, a move to the Big 10 might work well for all. I do admit, I'd like to play Duke and UNC at least twice a year in bb, though. We'd be in at least 4 of the top rated games almost every year and we could keep up in fb, aside from OSU. I'd vote that we never play IU in any sport!

I do think big changes are coming. Just don't know when.

[DonAndy]

Just don't see UK ever not being in the SEC since they are an original member. Kentucky Tennessee Alabama Georgia Arkasas Mississippi Florida kind of seem untouchable.

We beat UF 4 out of the past 5. I guess recent history was not considered by AI.

I used to think us joining the ACC was kind of an interesting concept, but this abomination of a conference he proposed is a hard pass for sure.

Sounds like a good plan. They have only been trying to get good at football since 1881, we need to give them some more time.

Ask A&M and South Carolina if we're good at football.

I didn't propose it AI did. Honestly it would no be a bad conference at all. I mean sure we would not be able to watch UK gets its teeth kicked in year after year against teams like Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, ect.

The all-time record for the Kentucky Wildcats football program is 645–640–44 (.502 winning percentage) I am not good at math, is that good?

You seem like you are not a fan. You can go **** yourself if that's the case.

lol, there is always at least one douche in every thread.

 

[BookofMormon]

The only point of this conference is to water down football? SEC hoops is in it's golden years, great place to be.

Not sure what the point is on the FB piece - when you play in the SEC, you have a chance to effectively be the best team in the country every year. It's hard, but why leave that? Would it really feel better going 9-1 in a lesser league, but having no better shot to win in the CFP?

Going 9-1 and playing in the playoffs would feel better than going 7-6 and playing in the Gas Station Sushi Bowl.

That made me laugh.

So then question is, if $$ was the same, would you rather be in the SEC or the ACC? Get to water down your FB significantly, and be in a hoops conference with Duke/UNC.

If the money was the same I would pick the ACC. I have been watching UK football for 40 decades, I am beaten down. If UK was in the ACC this year and had UL's schedule they would end the year with one loss, in the championship game against Miami. I don't care if it is the ACC or not tell me you would not be excited to finish the regular season with one loss and be preparing to watch UK in the CFP?

It's an interesting question - you typically want to be in a position where you want the opportunity to beat the best. That said, the SEC would kill their first child to win in football, cheat and claw like LSU. You do have a fairer playing field in the ACC. Tough one.

Arkansas? You do know they didn't join the SEC until '92?

 

[DonAndy]

Im not talking about when they joined. I said that about UK because we are an original member. I said Arkansas and the other teams because of geographical locations.

It looks like the Sports Reference numbers begin in 1915 (not sure why) where as the Wikipedia goes back to 1881. I'm seeing 655-663-44 on the link you just gave me.

I see your correction above. I was drafting this when you posted.

 

[Ukbrassowtipin]

Nah, its about culture, tradition, circumstance, etc too. I love the SEC, and that we're for the most part the only conference with a geographical footprint...atleast all of our schools are in states that touch each other
