President Warren G. Harding's definitions
An NCAA collegiate conference formed in 1995, located in mostly the southeastern portion of the United States.
Initially a merger between two smaller conferences which did not sponsor football at the time, C-USA added its 12th member in 1996 to even out the membership.
Though members have left in the ensuing years, most notably to the expansion of the Big East prior to the 2005 season, Conference USA responded admirably by extending invitations to schools from the mid-major WAC and MAC conferences. As of 2010, C-USA has 12 universities in its fold, is recognized nationally in athletics as well as academics, and has more football bowl tie-ins than any other mid-major conference.
C-USA East:
University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Blazers
University of Central Florida (UCF) Golden Knights
East Carolina University (ECU) Pirates
Marshall University Thundering Herd
Memphis Tigers
Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles
C-USA West:
University of Houston Cougars
Rice University Owls
Southern Methodist University (SMU) Mustangs
University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) Miners
Tulane Green Wave
Tulsa Golden Hurricane

(1) Guido: Hey, my team's playing Tulsa this weekend. Why we gotta schedule such weak-ass Sun Belt competition?
Fredo: Dude, Tulsa plays in Conference USA. They're not exactly the Big 12, but they have six automatic bowl tie-ins and super-high attendance. Don't be hatin'.
Guido: My bad, dawg.
(2) Tara: Like, OMG, my boyfriend loves the SEC but I can't stand their crazed, screaming fans all year long. What should I do?
Kara: You should pick a Conference USA school. It's, like, totally the same geographic region, n' junk? Except it's way more fun, a lot less redneck, and you can still go to a bowl game or NCAA basketball tournament that kicks ass!
Tara: That is SO cool! I'll look into that! For serious!

Get the buysexualmug. Fanfiction written on Twitter. So named because of the common use of hashtags on Twitter, and the common contraction of Fanfic for fanfiction.
Remember that cancelled show "Studio 60?" Well years later it got new life when some person or persons created a Twitter account for every single character, who then proceeded to live-tweet their fictional jobs. Though not the first example of hashfic, it's certainly among the most elaborate.

Get the Hashficmug. The Big 12, or Big Twelve (or Big XII, as reflected in its logo), is an NCAA sports conference, and was formed in 1994 from the then-power conference Big 8, and pieces of the recently disbanded Southwest Conference. In the ensuing 15 years, the 12-school membership has remained constant and unchanged, despite much chaos in the rest of the college sports world.
The conference plays 21 different college sports (10 men's, 11 women's), and is divided into two 6-school divisions, the Big 12 North, and the Big 12 South. The North is comprised of the University of Missouri, the University of Nebraska, the University of Colorado, the University of Kansas, Kansas State University, and Iowa State University. The South is made up of the University of Texas, the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, Texas Tech University, Texas A&M University, and Baylor University.
It is the largest college conference in the Central Time Zone, and is considered a powerhouse in the sports of college football, baseball, soccer, and both men's and women's basketball.
The Big 12 is one of only six conference with an automatic berth in the Bowl Championship series (BCS). It is joined by the ACC, Big East, Big Ten, PAC-10, and SEC.

Get the Tweetardedmug. A now-defunct collegiate football conference in the U.S.
Formed in 1907 as the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association, the only charter members to still remain upon its dissolution in 1996 were the Tigers of the University of Missouri, the Cornhuskers of the University of Nebraska, and the Jayhawks of the University of Kansas.
Despite numerous changes in membership during its 89-year history, it kept its name (officially) throughout, and in fact still had eight members in 1996 when it dissolved, combining with remnants of the Southwest Conference to form the Big 12.
Though the Big 12 was only the Big 8 plus Baylor, University of Texas, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech, the Big 12 did not claim the Big 8's history as its own, thus ending its existence.
