Fun fact UConn moved up in 2004 to the BE and between 2004 and 2012 were ranked 3 different seasons and had 5 seasons above .500 … care to guess at how we faired? UConn played in 5 bowl games we played in 2.
Again I’m not a UConn fan but playing for a major sports title is better for the league. Part of the reason you have schools looking to bolt is because the national perception of the conference is taking a beating.
It has been done before and can be done again, it’s not like this hasn’t happened.
I'm well aware of your fun fact, and how we fared during that same period. Do you think maybe one had something to do with the other? Is it possible bringing UConn back into the same conference with Syracuse might contribute to the same issues again?
There is no plausible scenario where UConn, Syracuse, Pitt, and Rutgers are all winning P4 football programs. That's even more true now than it was in 2004, and we see how it worked out for us then.
