They were speaking about a one loss team jumping an undefeated Big East team to play the winner of Ohio St/Michigan for the championship.

Kirk does not believe there will be an undefeated BE team saying they are good enough to beat each other, he further said only a one loss Florida or Auburn team would jump an undefeated Big East Team. (The SEC conference is the only conference worthy of that)

The best point made was by Desmond Howard who said WVU cannot schedule "cup cake" teams such as ECU, Marshall, & Maryland and then expect to play for the national title in the end and cry if they get jumped.

Your thoughts??

A 16+ team playoff (16 is the minimum needed IMO) would decide almost of the questions in I-A football.

The Big East needs to be building up its programs more and playing bigger teams - what is there to argue with?

You can't tell me WV playing Eastern Washington and ECU means a National Championship shot.  

If nothing else, getting some focus on the Big East should improve recruiting.

I don't get all of this talk about WVU weak OOC scheduleing;

Auburn's OOC schedule:

Washington State - no better than Maryland

Buffalo

Tulane

Arkansas State

Florida:

So. Miss

Central FL

Western Carolina

FSU

Furthermore if WVU goes undefeated it would have beaten #26 pitt, #16 RU and #7 UL.  I don't buy the arguement.  Perhaps the SEC is overrated ;)

yea i think WV is hurting themselves with that schedule.  they had to know going into the year that it would be an issue.  i guess they are hoping that an undefeated season gets them there.  although, most people thought they didnt belong in the BCS but look what they did to Georgia.

You guys know that West Virginia wasn't very good when they scheduled these cupcakes, dont you? Hell, there's a good chance they still had to play Miami, VT, and BC when this schedule was made.

A 1 loss Florida deserves it.  They have had the toughest schedule all year.  Auburn shouldn't be ranked that high at this point in my opinion.  Hopefully Louisville will beat WV, since they have a better OOC schedule.
