Bashing the BE works until you look at the numbers.

Good to see 3 BE teams on there. Happy to see USF there, thats about where I'd expect them, seeing how we havent had any bad seasons other than the one in C-USA where i believe we went 4-7

Glad you said 3 Big East teams instead of 4.

USF being there adds some perspective, definitely. Not being an FBS program for very long, it is amazing how far they have gone in such a short time. Hopefully, UCF can be spoken in the same light in the next few years.

In fact, War on I-4 needs a re-newing of blood.

It'll be 4 soon enough. Whatever they do from now on will reflect on the BE, and when they join they'll still be in the top 10 or so of that list, but right now I didnt think counting them was accurate.

Then how do you explain BYU, TCU and Utah who play in the, as you say, inferior conferences? Boise is a great program.

Same thing...great coaching and a weak conference. It isn't like they're dominating the SEC.

The ACC is lucky they were able to raid us. Without those 3 former BEast members of theirs, they wouldn't have anybody listed...
