Also, although I believe if you guys are undefeated, you should probably get the nod (depending of course on who else is undefeated, i.e., if Georgia & USC run the table, no one is getting ahead of them), I don't think you guys will get the national respect, and a one loss team would probably get the title game ahead of you. I'm not saying you guys wouldnt deserve it, I am saying you'll probably get screwed in that situation, since you're the new kids on the block.also - even if they're undefeated, I dont think UConn would get serious consideration or would even be a top 3 team. I think USF is the only BE team at this point that would get serious consideration if they are undefeated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can hope for it, but we need to take it a game at a time and win the Big East and let the cards fall as they may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Big East title and an Orange or Sugar Bowl trip would be a huge accomplishment for either school right now.And could I just point out that it took the mighty Gators 58 years to win their first unrevoked conference title, and 32 years (starting from SEC membership) to make their first Sugar Bowl trip?
