(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??

If nothing else, getting some focus on the Big East should improve recruiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, there's a good chance they still had to play Miami, VT, and BC when this schedule was made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
