I miss Big East Big Monday

[Eric15]

Don't get me wrong, I am very, very happy that we're in the ACC, but just for nostalgia purposes, I miss the Big East matchup on Big Monday with McDonough/Bilas/Raftery. It's kind of strange without it after like 20 years.

Couldn't agree more. There is a gaping hole...

Well the ACC did get the 7pm slot so we get to watch our conference games like we used too.

Not the same. Especially without that team calling games

 

[tbonezone]

do we even play another top 20 team before the tourney?

Pitt and Duke are ranked... but top 25 not top 20. ACC is def not the BE AND its a down year for the ACC. It'll get a LOT better... but the depth of the BE we won't likely ever see again.

Meh. Its the same to me. Loved raf but times change. I would listen to gilbert gottfried and fran drescher call a game. Doesnt matter to me

The Big East had a good run, but it all came to an end last season.

Other than Syracuse, Villanova, who we've played, Pitt who we will play, and Louisville, there are no ranked former Big East teams.

2 Syracuse
6 Villanova
18 Louisville
22 Pitt

The former Big East would have been awful this year as well and the few that are good we have played, or will play

It's not the same but I'm glad the ACC got the 7pm Big Monday time slot

of course it doesn't matter to you. AS long as you get your AAC games, you are set.
