RE: Phil Steele predicts UCF to be the top Non-AQ team in 2012

Their bball team made the sweet 16 with a win over USF this year and beat Gtown in the first round 2 years ago. BUT, Athens, OH has much fewer TV sets than Philly, PA.
not trying to pimp a school or knock another one, just curious as to a point of view from the inside. thanks.
The add would have to significantly improve the Big East's national perception, i.e. Boise State. In other words, if you don't deliver local sets, you should deliver national sets. The problem Ohio U has is that despite their recent success, they don't have the local sets nor do they have the national profile to add significant value to the Big East.
