So the Big East isn't "packing"


All this talk about the Big East this and the Big East that and what have we seen from them today, maybe mid-major basketball at best. As mentioned before Georgetown was handled by Ohio. Side note about Ohio, they went 7-9 in their conference. Georgetown just made it to the Big East Championship game. Looks like I should not place such a high value on the big east tournament and instead should give more credit to MAC.
Then there was Notre Dame, who all week had to listen to people warn them about the challenge that was ODU. (SHOUT OUT TO ODU THE HOMETOWN TEAM) What happened, Notre Dame's best player had 4 pts (All worthless and within the last minute of the game).
Then sharpshooting Marquette lost to Washington. Now I love the Pac 10, because I went to Stanford, but Washington! This team won its conference tournament and was still an 11 seed (mid-major territory).
And even though they didn't lose Villanova should be the most embarrassed. OT versus a Robert Morris team that to be honest should have beaten them. Maybe its time for the Big East to change its name to the Little East. I will give them another shot tomorrow with WVU, Pitt, Syracuse (minus Onuaku), and Louisville, but I have very little confidence in them.
