just sucks though because the big east as we know it is crumbling, and for teams like Nova with no I-A football things dont look good

I get tired of hearing about HOW GRUELING THE BIG EAST IS OH MAN IT'S THE TOUGHEST THING ANY HUMANS HAVE EVER GONE THROUGH IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE SO TOUGH AND THE NATIONAL TOURNAMENT IS A PIECE OF CAKE COMPARED TO THE GRUELINGNESS OF THE CONFERENCE IT'S SO GRUELING every year so the entire Big East can implode for all I care.

obviously thats overblown, but yea

i wouldnt care if the big east was gone if it meant Nova was going to be a part of another major conference but the likelihood that that happens gets less and less by the day

For the record, the Big East is tough, but it is not unquestionably the toughest conference every single year. Maybe it's my perception, but in other corners of the internet, I feel like big east fans don't even allow the possibility that the Big Ten or ACC or Big 12 or Pac-10/2 could ever be better in a given season.

I feel worse for a team like Marquette. I hold Nova on a higher tier than Marquette so i think Nova is fine no matter what conference they join.

We're fucked no matter what happens so I better get used to rooting for a MAAC team pretty soon.

It's absolutely possible for another conference to be tougher on any given year. 2008 comes to mind immediately. I just think there are so many really good programs in the conference that even if one or two get caught in a down year, another couple usually pick up the slack. I can think of 7 different Big East programs that have made the Final Four relatively recently and that's not even including a team like Pittsburgh, which has been a perennial top ten team for much of the last decade.

Was it tough to get tickets? Titus made it sound like a ton of students couldn't get any
Apparently. Somehow I got right in to the Ticketmaster system they use and got them first try. But I only know one other person out of around ten friends who tried who got them. I had a lot of angry friends on Saturday.
Thoughts on the Big Ten?
Looking a little down, possibly. Ohio State is obviously the favorite. I think Wisconsin, Purdue, MSU, Michigan and Illinois are all really close. I'd probably give the edge to Wisconsin and Purdue (if Hummel can finally stay healthy). I'm bummed that Mo Creek got hurt because I would have liked to see this Indiana team at full strength.

UNC will be wearing some interesting jerseys for the Carrier Classic against Michigan State.





I can't say I'm a fan of the actual jersey, but I understand and respect why they are doing it.
