PAC-10 whips the Big East.....AGAIN!!!
Yeah, sure, EAST Coast biased media....Marquette and Louisville from that nasty old mean Big East were going to destroy UW and Cal..:eyes:

Once more the PAC-10 is disrespected and once more the conference rises to the occasion in proving the biased sports media WRONG.

1. ACC still superior to both
More teams than the PAC10 and all of em won their first round games. Really the PAC 10 does suck. I'll watch the MWC basketball before the PAC 10.

10. Really?

New Mexico barely surviving against the Big Sky Champ? Yeah BYU did beat Florida but they where seeded higher and needed 2 overtimes and their best player to foul out. Everybody else lost. San Diego St and UNLV. I give SDSU credit for giving a tough Tennessee team a hard time.

Edit:Cal didn't defeat a higher seed but the doggies did.

2. Those are your best. Lets see you match up against the Big East's bests.
Play Syracuse and West Virginia. So your 1 and 2 are better than their 5 and 6?

4. One thing has become clear..
the Big East is OVERRATED. They get their top 8 teams into the tournament and the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th place finishers all lost in the first round....with Villanova lucky to have beaten that well known national powerhouse Richard Morris.

So, who knows how UW and Cal might fare against Syracuse or WVU?.....Looking at the way things have gone so far, I gather it would be quite a bit better than the East Coast biased media thinks.

6. yeah, but that's just this year... I think the BE did better last year (or did they?)
Edited on Sat Mar-20-10 01:03 PM by tigereye
Big East is usually pretty tough, but it's true that some middle USA teams can beat em. Louisville and Marquette and Nova aren't as good as last year, and neither are my Pitt Panthers. It's because so many good players trade up to the NBA too soon! :evilgrin:

It's Robert Morris, btw. :D

7. Robert Morris, Richard Morris or Phillip Morris..
it doesn't matter now, because another well known national powerhouse, St. Mary's, has finished the job on overrated Nova.

9. They could do better going foward
I still expect them to get to the elite 8 but who knows?

FTR I'm rooting for Cal and Washington this tourney! :bounce:

11. Oh shit
St Marys defeated 'Nova. That post does not look good having said that. Please forgive me, I woke up 12:30pm West Coast time.

12. it's a free for all! just shows almost any motivated team can even beat the
best seeded teams... whee! Quite an exciting tournament this year! Just hope my Pitt Panthers can get past Xavier today. All bets are off, lately.

13. And a big "FUCK YOU" to the always East Coast biased "sports pundits" on TV
Those assholes never have any respect for a Pac 10 team in any sport, no matter what their record is.
