Big East play kicked off last Friday and thankfully it was a Friday, because no one would have been watching otherwise. This kid thought Uconn was starting to roll a bit, but apparently they really are as terrible as they have looked against any credible team. Syracuse then pulled off one of the few Big East wins they have been able to achieve in the past six years, given some credence to the thought that they may actually be back on the right track.
This week may be a bit more telling for the rest of league. If WVU cannot right the track versus their perennial thorn USF, then this league really is in shambles. Look for BJ Daniels to make a few big plays, but this team does not have the tools to compete against a top caliber defense. If WV puts the hammer on the Bulls, it could be the first step in a dominating Big East season. Friday night brings us the Keg of Nails game, which brings up another one of the Big East's cellar dwellers who is demanding respect, Louisville. Charlie Strong's team will provide an interesting story all year, as they are not very deep in talent, but appear to be capable of pulling a full upsets this year. Can they do it against the two time defending league champion? Finally Pitt travels up to the Dome to answer two questions, how bad is Pitt, and how legit is the 'Cuse?
