If this would be better off on the trash talk board, then I apoligize, but I hate for you to be asking several apparently rhetorical questions about the Big East/ACC without us Big East fans getting a chance to respond. So here's your response...
Argue until you are blue in the face, find as many obscure and bizarre facts to back up your claims as you wish, what Boeheim said was true. You let a Virginia Tech team that has been nothing but mediocre for the past three years in the Big East step right in and win your conference.
Quote:The ACC has done better in bowls and Sagarin than the Big East for ... good lord ... .. at LEAST a decade from the quick research I could do.Might want to research a little more, the total records for the past 4 years have the Big East with the highest winning percentage in bowls among BCS conferences (ACC in 2nd).
Quote:The facts do NOT side with Boeheim in the least. Period. Any REASONABLE fan would agree his statement is a laugher. Not putting the BE down... just the facts, ma'am.What facts? You picked out three random tidbits, one of which was false, and one of which was just plain strange (what the heck does a non-bowl conference team winning in Blacksburg mean? How about why didn't one of your bowl eligible teams beat Tech at Tech?) and not really an indicator of conference strength.
