After this weekend, it is apparent the Big East was overrated as usual. By the end of the regular season, the team that wins the Big EAst will be ranked no higher than #15 and will get another BCS bowl berth.

There should be no rankings until the middle of October.


West Virginia was overrated. Louisville was overrated. Rutgers was overrated. USF might be good enough to be #15

I don't think this goes here, but I completely agree! I don't like how the Big East gets talked up so much and then nothing ever comes of it.

USF has been one of my fav teams for the past few years though, go go Bulls!

Why don't you take a look at the Big Ten, Big XII and the ACC before you start spouting off how overrated the Big East is. West Virginia just played one of the best defenses in the country on Friday night. It also didn't help their cause when Pat White left with a bruised thigh in the first half. Rutgers and Louisville were overrated, South Florida, West Virginia and Cincinnati were not. South Florida and West Virginia are 3-0 in SEC action the last three years. Additionally, the entire Big East was 5-0 in bowl games this past season. Some could argue that the Big East might be the third best conference in the country right now.

WVU plays the #114 toughest schedule. Plus, Louisville and Rutgers were the highlights of that schedule.

How hard is it to win when you play the worst teams in the nation?

Why state the obvious...everyone knows the Big 10, Big 12 and ACC are overrated.

They may be the third best conference, but no team in that league is worthy of being #5.

overrated compared to who? the ACC? the big 12? I'd say, no to that.

or the Pac 10 or SEC or Big 10? i'd say yes to this.

As time goes on, Louisville may have a few problems with their success, and West Virginia may have similar issues. However, Rutgers and to a much larger degree USF will be mainstays on the college football scene for a while now due to improved recruiting.

In a few years, USF could have the most talent in the state.
