As the Big East burns, here's a little levity.

From Grantland.com on the upcoming ACC-Big 10 Challenge...

"Virginia at Wisconsin, Wednesday, 7 p.m.

This matchup proves that whoever runs the Challenge has a sick, twisted sense of humor. Last season, Wisconsin finished with the slowest adjusted tempo in Division I, among 345 teams. Virginia was 338th. Tony Bennett, UVa's coach, is the son of Dick Bennett, who stall-balled for years at Wisconsin. So if you enjoy stodgy, slow, boring basketball, and you hate athleticism, this is the game for you. But if you're an avowed pacist like myself, SKIP IT. Oh, hell, who am I kidding? This is going to be too fascinating to ignore. I was going to call it a train wreck, but it's more like two tractors driving toward each other at 3 mph. And they start 10 miles apart. In deep sand."
