No. 7 Duke, No. 8 Kansas and No. 9 Michigan State all lost this week. Those defeats should clear the way for still-undefeated No. 10 Murray State (23-0, 11-0 Ohio Valley) to race further up the AP NCAA men’s basketball poll. Here’s what’s happening in college basketball this week:

For just the second time in the 75-year history of the AP poll, one conference holds the top three spots at the same time.

After a 2-7 start to the season (0-6 in the SEC), Mississippi head coach Houston Nutt announced Monday that he will be resigning at the end of the season. Ole Miss Athletic Director Pete Boone also announced that he would be stepping down next year, but did not give a specific date.

After weeks of negotiation and “will they or won’t they” speculation, the Southeastern Conference finally made it official on Sunday, announcing its acceptance of Missouri as the league’s 14th school. The Tigers are expected to make the move next summer at the same time as fellow Big 12 member Texas A&M, which is also leaving for the SEC.

Because this year's 'game of the century' didn't have enough points to satisfy most fans (north of the Mason Dixon line and west of the Mississippi) there is tons of sentiment that under no circumstances should LSU and Alabama play again for the BCS National Championship game...

It is official, C-USA and the Mountain West Conferences have agreed to create a 22 team football only league which will begin play next season.  This  move was inevitable considering all of the teams that have left their respective conferences the past couple of seasons in college football.

After weeks of rumors, Texas A&M is set to leave the Big 12 and to join the SEC, the league said on Sunday. The move will go into effect next July. “We are excited to begin competition in the nation’s premier athletic conference,” Texas A&M President R. Bowen Loftin said in a statement.

When Texas A&M announced last week it would be leaving the Big 12, it turned from an amicable split into a bad divorce in a short time. Even when it seems like the school and the conference had reached a compromise, one side finds a way to submarine the deal.

In the latest chapter of Texas A&M's "It's not you it's me......I swear" break up with the Big 12, Baylor University may be playing the role of the fat or ugly chick at the club.
