    Based on bowl success, how can you deny that the Big East is the toughest conference?

    With less than 6 minutes left in the game and LSU up by 27 points, I don't think tht it is too early to post the results based off a victory for LSU over Notre Dame:

    Big East...... 100%.... 4/4 with 1 game left ... best case 100% worst case 80%
    Mtn West..... 75%..... 3/4 finished
    WAC........... 75%..... 3/4 finished
    SEC............. 63%.... 5/8 with 1 game left ... best case 67% worst case 56%
    Mid America. 50%.... 1/2 with 2 games left ... best case 75% worst case 25%
    ACC............ 50%..... 4/8 finished
    Pac 10......... 50%.... 3/6 finished
    Sun Belt...... 50%..... 1/2 finished
    Big 12......... 38%..... 3/8 finished
    Big Ten........ 33%.... 2/6 with 1 game left ... best case 43% worst case 29%
    Conf USA....... 0%.... 0/4 with 1 game left ... best case 20% worst case 0%

    No more games until Saturday. The next game will be between the MAC and the Big East, the Big East's final game. Win or lose, the Big East will have the highest winning percentage of all conferences.

    Big East? Isn't that the conference that folks were saying didn't belong in the BCS not long ago? Isn't that what some said about Boise St.?

    The SEC can still claim most wins at 6 if Fla pulls it off.

    Or if they don't pull it off they will be the only conference to have lost to the lowly B10.

    That would make them 1-2 vs. the Big 10. Otherwise, it's 0-3. The pressure's on to see who the second best conference is behind the Big East. :wink:

    At the 11 minute mark in the 4th quarter, the only way for Ohio to win is if they exchange uniforms with Southern Miss. 28 - 0 appears to be enough to call the game early. CUSA wins their first game!

    Big East...... 100%.... 5/5 finished
    Mtn West..... 75%..... 3/4 finished
    WAC........... 75%..... 3/4 finished
    SEC............. 63%.... 5/8 with 1 game left ... best case 67% worst case 56%
    ACC............ 50%..... 4/8 finished
    Pac 10......... 50%.... 3/6 finished
    Sun Belt...... 50%..... 1/2 finished
    Big 12......... 38%..... 3/8 finished
    Big Ten........ 33%.... 2/6 with 1 game left ... best case 43% worst case 29%
    Mid America. 25%.... 1/4 finished
    Conf USA......20%.... 1/5 finished
    Indep............ 0%.... 0/2 finished

    As far as conference standings are concerned, The SEC stays where they are with a win or a loss tomorrow. The Big Ten stays where they are with a loss and moves up one position over the Big 12 with a win.
