The Big East is imploding.. not sure if I want to be a member.
I still like the idea of Memphis and Cincy joining the MAC
If the Big East does end up imploding (which I think we'll see within the next couple years) I still like the idea of a completely new conference involving the following:
Ohio
Fiami
Temple
Marshall
Cincinnati
Memphis
Rutgers
U Mass
Louisville
WVU
That would be a great 10 team league already. It may look slightly crazy now, but where will some of these teams go if the BE does implode? I can't really see the ACC adding anymore of the current BE teams if they expand further. I would think they might go after a USF or someone of that nature. Rutgers is pretty much the only BE school I could see the B10 going after. Maybe take these teams and try to go after someone like a Navy, or retain two other MAC teams (not entirely sure who that'd be).
To stay on topic...I get that Temple's win over Maryland was impressive, but is Maryland really any good this year? By no means am I trying to say Syracuse and OSU are great this year, but Toledo could easily be 3-1 with two wins over BCS schools. Should definitely be a good game, but I think Toledo takes this one.
