Title: Down year for the Big East, huh?
Post by: ecompt on November 20, 2009, 08:52:36 PM
Syracuse tramples North Carolina. Big East wins its first 37 games. And, in a great example of Big Ten power, Indiana loses to Boston University. Great start.

Big East ended up winning the first 41 games before Providence & USF screwed it up, although BE was the last conference to lose a game.  Those 41 wins include wins against the 2009 NCAA champion, three defending conference champions and three top-25 teams.

Cuse looks really tough this year.  That Wesley Johnson kid can flat out play.  I have a feeling that it will be Villanova and Syracuse 1-2 in the BE this year.

This is a nice RPI link:

Look which conference is number 1.  :)

Look which conference is number 10.   ;D

I know it is still early but the non-conference season is almost half over.

Big Ten will certainly move up before the end of the year, but five of their teams have already lost twice even before the annual ACC smackdown.

Does this mean that currently, the B10 is a mid-major?     Sounds about right.   Where would they be without MSU?

They'd have relocated to the West Coast and MSU renamed themselves, "Gonzaga."

Oh wait...that'd be demeaning the WCC. ;)
