Most people would concede that the ACC is almost always better than the Big East, and the Big East has been much better in football in recent years. Last year the Big East was 4-2 in bowls and I think beat some SEC teams. ACC was 2-3 and played formidable in losses. The MWC is the last resort for any teams in the Big 12. Alot of fans like KSU are already conceding to the MWC, but I really do think they might be able to play off their recent basketball success and get into a Big East/Conf Usa/Big 12 North merger of some sort.
Are you serious? I think you are not giving credit where it was due.

Heres the final AP rankings of 4 MWC teams last year. I know Boise St wasn't in the MWC last year, but they are now so I am including them.

MWC
4. Boise St.
6. TCU
12. BYU
18. Utah

ACC
10. Virginia Tech
13. Georgia Tech
19. Miami (FL)
24. Clemson

Big East
8. Cincinatti
15. Pittsburgh
25. West Virginia

PAC 10
11. Oregon
22. USC


As far as the Big 12, SEC, and Big 10 go, I'll list them too

Big 12
2. Texas
14. Nebraska
21. Texas Tech

SEC
1. Alabama
3. Florida
17. LSU

Big 10
5. Ohio State
7. Iowa
9. Penn State
(14. Nebraska)


Arguably, the MWC had the 3rd best conference behind the SEC and Big 10.

Holler at your boy.
