Isn't LVCARDFREAK's comment about the 13-5 bowl record the last 3 years enough? :)

Aside from WV (who I think is a good football team) not really. When you're competition is mostly the CUSA, the MAC and some middling ACC teams it's not hard to win a lot of games. Big 12, SEC, PAC 10, and Big Televen all play each other mostly in the bowl games.

I dont blame you for saying that because obivously you dont watch football outside of the Big 12. I am not sure where you get the Big East's competition is usally MAC and CUSA teams. Are you talking about in Bowl games? Seems to me WVU beat up the BIG 12 represenative pretty bad last year. Year before that they beat the SEC winner in the Sugar Bowl.

How can you blast the Big East opponent in bowls when the Big 12's only wins were against below avaerge Big Ten teams in Minnesota and Northwestern. Oh and that big win by Nebraska against the "middling" ACC opponent Clemson.

You also failed to mention that ther Big East record against the SEC. The fact of the matter is that the Big East is the only (of 13) Division I college football conferences with a winning record against the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

I am not gonna say anymore about this, because some people get a sound bite into their head from 5 years ago (Big East doesnt deserve an automatic BCS bid) and run with it. I think if you watched the Big east you'd fine they are a deep conference with a lot of talent.

Exactly! Which is why the Big East ranks last of the BCS conferences in NFL draft picks this decade despite having twelve teams.:rolleyes:

You might have a point if you were talking hoops.

Well it was in response to the coferance bowl record. Seems like that would make sense.

You must have just glossed over the part where I complemented WV on having a good football team....

Yes and it was a rather dissapointing bowl season for the Big 12 overall. Certainly one I wouldn't use as a bragging point. Another difference between Big 12 expectations and Big East expectations maybe??

You also failed to mention that ther Big East record against the SEC. The fact of the matter is that the Big East is the only (of 13) Division I college football conferences with a winning record against the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

Who played who exactly? The teams do matter in record, which was my original point that you seemed to miss the first time.

I'm gonna go with the PAC 10 guys response.

Good lord man, you could at least open a fishwrap and look at who plays in the league. The Big East has 8 teams. Your opinion on the Big East is obviously grounded in reality. :sarcasm:

Seriously, who cares about college football right now?

What you say heathen? National Letter of Intent signing day is creeping up on us and the first 2009 Preseason Top 25 poll is out. :D
