Doesn't mean I can't have an opinion and rooting interest in how things shake out.

Believe me, I'm about as pessimistic about UK football right now as I was in the Curry days.

I think UC throwing the game to UConn would have been more likely, and that didn't happen. Would have been fun to see if WVU would have filed a lawsuit over it.

WVU will play Virginia Tech in the Orange Bowl, take the revenue, and flip off the Big East on the way out.

Not VaTech, and whether they're on the way out so soon is still up for debate. They'll be writing a big check if nothing else.

Looking like it will be Vanderbilt vs. Louisville in the Liberty Bowl. I'll be there. Go Dores!

Interesting. The rumor here is UC vs Vandy in the Liberty Bowl.

That's what I'm seeing now also. And the direction the Memphis paper has printed this morning. Not sure what changed there.

Either way, go Dores!

I've read Marshall wants in the Beef O'Brady's bowl and the Big East isn't going to have enough teams to qualify. I'm kinda hoping for a Marshall-Western Kentucky matchup in Florida but it will probably be FIU.

The Belk bowl in charlotte is expected to take Louisville. I'm not sure if it picks first but I know its louisville's preference.

The only way WVa can make it to a BCS bowl is if they hurt UCs QB. Short of that, UC cruises to the Big East crown

As a UC fan, it pains me, but I agree. WVU didn't do anything dirty or shady to sneak in. They beat UC at UC. There were mitigating circumstances for why it probably happened, but those things don't matter. I hope WVU does the BE proud, I am tired of the conference getting beaten up and talked about like they are the MAC.

Thanks Doug, I mean it when I say that I have the highest level of respect for UC football and Coach Jones. Cincy was always a fun rivalry for me in the conference i.e. a team you respected the hell out of, DID NOT HATE, and always expected a damn good football games as we have seen over the years. I really hope the Big 12 adds Cincy (and USF) to the conference soon.

Good riddance to the teams I DO HATE, sPitt, Syracuse, Loserville, and Marshall.

If you remember a few years back when WVU beat Georgia then Oklahoma in bcs bowls WVU or the Big East still never got any respect from anybody on tv so I don't see it changing this year.
