Well Collaros looks like he got hurt and now Louisville is driving in reverse. Should be a good finish.

It's looking like Louisville's best chance at a go ahead touchdown will be by punting the ball to us.
Watching Louisville is painful. That offense is a wreck.
Into the fourth quarter - Louisville up a little, Syracuse up a lot. Two undefeateds trailing.
Just one of those nights that everything Marrone calls turns to gold. The defense showed its youth, the oline played like crap, and the morons on the field in the stripes thought WVU was the one leaving for the ACC with some of the pure garbage personal foul calls while the same level wasn't given to Syracuse.

Back and forth struggle ends up in the Bearcats favor by a count of 37-34. S. Florida scores a TD with about a minute and a half to go to give the Bulls the lead, but Collaros and the Cats come right back and score with 12 seconds to go. A crazy final play but UC hangs on.
That Bearcat game was an awesome game to watch; but what about the N. Illinois-Buffalo game, and especially the ending? Buffalo was down by 17 and came storming back in the 4th. Down 31-24 they score the tying TD with only 14 seconds left and the kicker misses the xtra point, and they lose 31-30. Wow! I really feel sorry for that kid.

This thing's really setting up nicely for UC but they've got a lot of tough games yet to play. The fun thing is now, for us fans, is those games mean something
Back in the Top 25 for the Bearcats.

In other news, Big East football to begin negotiations for their own YouTube channel to show compelling Big East matchups such as Rutgers v. Navy or the soon-to-be-annual "Florida Commuter School Showdown" between Central Florida and South Florida.The presidents of the Big East Conference schools voted unanimously today to authorize commissioner John Marinatto to extend invitations to six schools in an attempt to re-stock the league’s membership and save its automatic qualifier BCS status. The schools expected to be invited are Central Florida, Houston and SMU for all sport, along with Boise State, Air Force and Navy for football only.
What a joke. Marinatto may be the most incompetent figure in sports today, and that's saying something.

While I'm not disputing the fact that Marinatto is in over his head, exactly what kind of alternative does he have going forward other than letting the football part of the conference completely disintegrate?
In all honesty, who else would you look to add? Nobody is leaving another BCS conference so the conference is basically forced to pick from the best of the rest and adding Boise State, Houston et al. is probably the best case scenario. UCF and SMU probably aren't currently BCS-caliber schools right now, but then again neither were UC or USF before they got invited to the Big East. If you're going to try to pick two schools who could improve exponentially with the added exposure of playing in a better conference, they seem like pretty decent options.
