Thanks for this. Great breakdown.

So 25-10 if we remove DePaul's losses. 

FTR - I'm not in favor of bashing DePaul to leave the BE, I'm in favor of bashing DePaul for the sake of bashing DePaul.  Their 4 losses come from BCS conferences (6-2 FSU, 8-0 SC, and 7-3 PSU [though against crap]) and to the 8-0 Arkansas LR.

Yes, boy love the inroads to the Chicago market via DePaul as well as MU alums, but just can't figure out why they can't get it together.

I did do a whole piece that ran at Breitbart today and included that list at the bottom.

I would hope that Marquette (and other Big East bretheren) would be in favor of not scheduling any AAC teams regularly, unless it's Xavier/Cincinnati, Georgetown/UConn, Providence/UConn, etc.  Aside from the fact that any loss would hurt perception of the league, I wouldn't want anything to do with some of those schools that tried to come into the Big East, believe they were entitled to the name/league fees and MSG, and then tried to de-value the C7 before the reformation of the conference in 2013.  That, and I wouldn't want to play any road game where the attendance is below 1,500 (insert DePaul joke here). 

The Gavitt Games are awesome, and I hope we can do some type of scheduling agreement with the PAC-12 too (Fox connection).

It's really sad to see Cincy losing.

Though I hate that program, Huggy Bear was a damn good coach and Cronin had his successes sustaining UC's strong program.

Hated the players, respected the history.
