June 21, 200719 yr But don't forget that Louisville Football is a joke... 3. Louisville at West Virginia, Nov. 8 Once again, this figures to be the Game of the Year in the Big East, and at least one of the two is likely to enter the contest with its national-title hopes still in tact. ESPN has once again slotted the game for a Thursday night, providing a showcase opportunity for Heisman hopefuls Brian Brohm, Steve Slaton and Pat White. 10. Rutgers at Louisville, Nov. 29 In a rematch of one of last season's most thrilling contests, the Cardinals could be playing for a BCS berth. So could Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights, 11-2 a year ago, play all of the other toughest foes on their schedule -- Maryland, Cincinnati, USF, West Virginia and Pittsburgh -- at home.

June 21, 200719 yr In looking at the list, I dont see both UL games as being top 10 games nor do I see Alabama's games being that important either.
June 21, 200719 yr They are in two of the most important games partly because their conference as a whole is not as good compared to the other BCS conferences. The Big East at the top can compete with anybody that is why these games are so important because pretty much FOR SURE we know one of these three teams could run the table unless they all beat each other like last year.

June 21, 200719 yr Big East In 2006: 3rd in Massey Ratings 2nd in Sagarin Ratings Like I said... the top can compete with anybody but after that there isn't much. Throw all the ratings you want at me, Louisville only has to play their best in a few games to run the table. That is a compliment.

Hopefully it's good though. Wow.:lol:
June 21, 200719 yr Big East In 2006: 3rd in Massey Ratings 2nd in Sagarin Ratings I believe everyone is giving credit to WVU, Rutgers, and UL for being great football teams and deserve respect. But after that there isnt anyone else that good in the conference.
June 22, 200719 yr I believe everyone is giving credit to WVU, Rutgers, and UL for being great football teams and deserve respect. But after that there isnt anyone else that good in the conference.Same could be said for any conference. The Pac ten, Big Twelve and ACC only have three really good teams. The Big Ten and SEC go about four deep but after that none of those teams are much better than Cincy, USF, or Pitt.
