I know Pat and Lee have their doubts about seeing the Hoopies ranked in the top 15. I think they are at least worthy of the #15 ranking, probably higher.
Here’s what really sucks. We have to hope that WVU really is that good.
I’m not kidding. We all breathed a little easier when the Big East was kept in the BCS. I know I didn’t look closely at the fine print at first. Well, here’s a reminder contained in the Sportsline Big East Preview.
The clock is running. Big East champions will have to average a final No. 12 ranking in the BCS ratings over a four-year period or the conference’s BCS status will be reviewed.
Think the other 5 BCS conferences will be so nice after a little time has passed? With more dollar signs to push away any remaining lingering guilt? After they had to crack the door open a little wider to the other non-BCS conferences? Think the MWC and WAC won’t be complaining a little louder?
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have take my couch outside and set it on fire.
