Villains in the Big East

We love our teams and we treat our stars like super heroes. But every hero needs a villain. It's fun to win games; it's even more so to vanquish the guy wearing the black hat.

Some Big East programs are so new or were so irrelevant for so long that finding deep-seated villainy isn't easy. Unless you look hard enough. Here are my choices for each Big East team's current and historical villains.

...

South Florida

Current villain: October. The entire month has seemed like Halloween for the Bulls the past two years. After undefeated and impressive Septembers, South Florida has gone just 3-5 in the past two Octobers, wrecking its Big East and national hopes.

All-time villain: Florida's Big Three. It's hard to build a program from scratch. It's even harder when you're in the same state and competing for the same recruits as Florida, Florida State and Miami. Those schools often treated the Bulls like a forgotten stepchild. But South Florida will get its first-ever shot against FSU this year and play Miami in November. Next year, it will take on Florida in Gainesville for the first time.

I understand the Big three, however they are also a great asset in ways.  for the last few years now when the national media speaks of the state football and mentions them, we get included as the "and you cannot discount...forget...etc. USF"  That is great advertising.

October has been, is it that we cannot finish out? or is the BE play that hurts?  Can the BE referees be included in that.  Maybe it is the green and gold glasses of a fan but it seems like in conference play the rulings on the field tend to go the other way.

I also included Rutgers in here.. but just because I hate them.....haha..

Oh, and for anyone who wants to mention UCF... They cannot be villians, they have no power over us..

Rutgers is my personal villain when it comes to Bulls football. I don't think I hate any one team more than I hate Rutgers
