Pitt, WVU,  Syracuse all had national championships in football in the past. UL had basketball. Rutgers was, Rutgers.

The only team in our current conference is UCF and their “NaTiOnAl ChAmPiOnShIp”

In fairness, Rutgers made a Final Four in MBB and also beat the #2 team in the nation in football.

Lol. ****, forgive me for letting that one slip my mind.

Presumably we all recognize that there is a > zero percent chance that UCF ends up getting into whatever becomes of the Big XII and USF does not. My question is - does USF then pull the plug on the War on I-4? Speaking only for myself, I would hope that Kelly would tell Oviedo to go pound sand if that happens.

There's also a > zero percent chance that USF ends up getting into whatever becomes of the Big XII and UCF does not .... and a > zero percent chance that that we both get into whatever becomes of the Big XII. Whatever happens, I hope he pulls the plug on the War on I-4, something that never should have been plugged in the first place.

Maybe not wait and pull a pre-emptive strike!

Was the football Big East (R.I.P.) that much better of a conference than a potential current Big 12 with Cincy, USF, and ucf? Don't think so and that was BCS conference so...

Better has nothing to do with it.  Did it generate more revenue?  

That is the only question, ever.

Saw something today that only 2 matchups in the last 10 years we're G5 vs G5 and got over 4 million viewers:

USF vs UCF and Army vs Navy. Have to think if a conference is going to grab one of us they want both as that rivalry has the potential to be a big deal.

A smart investor would see the potential.

Hopefully the game will get back to that and don't have a real problem with hyping it because that's unavoidable and the players seem to enjoy the rivalry  .....just stop with the gimmicky, lame moniker and for pete's sake stop the even more lame lumping all the other sports because nobody I don't think care about that outside of some message board dweebs. Conference results mean tons more to those players ....
