i dont think any championship games have anything to do with the rankings. i dont think any conference associates themselves with any particular ranking (other then the BCS ranking).
i dont know for certain, but i assume its decided by the same tiebreaker system that decides who wins each division. since East Carolina has a 7-1 conference record while Houston has a 6-2 conference record, the game is played at ECU

I'm confused too. Why is the Pitt-Cincy game at Pitt If Cincy is undefeated?

I think the Pitt-Cincy game is a regular season game, not a Championship game.

A conference has to have 12 members to have a championship game; that won't happen for the Big East until the 2011 season when UAB, ECU, Southern Miss and Houston join.
