This is hilarious!
Who would have thought one year ago that fans of the Big 12 would be
fending off claims of superiority from WAC fans?
Now I don't believe for a minute that the WAC is even close to the
Big 12, but the fact that someone actually has a few numbers to make it
look plausable is pretty funny.
Makes me wish I had saved some of those posts by Big 12 fans like
Craig Gowens, etal. proclaiming equality or superiority of the Big 12
to the SEC even though the Big 12 had never played a game.
Some of us tried to tell you not to make claims until the Big 12 actually
started playing games, but Nooooooo! You wouldn't listen.

The Big Twelve, WAC, and the SEC have a statistically insignificant separation
in suckness. This means that the Big Twelve could very easily suck TWICE as
much as the WAC; while BOTH conferences suck a million times more than a
good conference like the Big East.

I think the reason this hasn't been discussed is because there weren't
many games involving the two conferences. The only one I can think of was
Georgia's victory over Texas Tech. That may have been the only one.

I think you mean "Notre Dame beat Texas." Penn State isn't in the SEC,
it's in the Big East.
And Southwest Louisiana beat A&M, so that's two.
Of course, Memphis beat Tennessee, so that's one for the Big 12.
BTW, is it true that every conference with a "Tigers" team in it
just keeps that team around for the cheap wins?
So they HAVE to schedule Temple each year.

Well, I suppose it was bait to the extent that it was meant to
engender an argument, but OTOH, the WAC has in fact surpassed the ACC
and Big Easy with the exception of the Florida schools (and maybe the
Big Easy in general given Miami's performance lately), so I don't know
whether it stinks or not.

Unless you're talking about altitude or number of teams in the conference,
there isn't a single "fact" that supports this inane notion.
I can assume that you're only talking about this past season, since in the
12 seasons since the last WAC team was named MNC, teams in the ACC or Big
East have won five. So let's look at 1996.
The WAC certainly didn't win any games against Big East or ACC teams, so
you can't make any silly 7 to 6 analogies. In fact (and yes, this really
IS a fact) the Big East won the only matchup vs. the WAC (and that was a
road game).
Still in search of "facts" that support the idea that the WAC has
surpassed the ACC and the Big East, I turned to the only source available
that compares all of college football, the Sagarin ratings. The rankings
for 1996 by conference average were:
1 Big 10 81.28
2 Pac 10 80.01
3 SEC 78.92
4 Big 12 77.76
5 ACC 73.65
6 Big East 73.53
7 ConfUSA 72.48
8 WAC 66.12
The WAC, in fact, sucks. However, since I don't in "fact" want to change
my daughter's diaper and, if I keep typing, my wife will do it, I'll humor
you and look at the numbers more closely. Florida State's Sagarin score
is 99.04 and Miami's is 86.22. If you throw out either team's score and
recalculate the average for the remaining teams, the ACC would drop to
70.47 and the Big East would drop to 71.72. Both numbers are, in "fact,"
still greater than 66.12. Carrying your erroneous assertion even further,
removing FSU and North Carolina (93.24) drops the ACC to 67.22, and
removing the two top teams from the Big East (Syracuse - 89.96 and
Virginia Tech - 87.04) drops them to 68.54. These numbers are STILL
better than the WAC.
As a preemptive strike, I looked at the numbers and saw that the WAC is
more bottom heavy than Tonya Harding. However, you can remove Hawaii,
UNLV, UTEP, San Jose State and Fresno State and the WAC still doesn't
measure up. The most telling stat, though, is if you replaced Hawaii
(46.39) with Florida State, the WAC wouldn't make up half the difference
between themselves and the Big East. Frankly, WAC looks like it should
stand for We're Almost ConferenceUSA.
Now, what was that you were saying about starting an argument about how
the WAC has "in fact" surpassed the ACC and the Big East?
Jim Leahy (ANYTHING to get out of changing a shitty diaper)
> =Bob
Oh, c'mon, that's easy!
"The WAC is just as good. As the ACC and the Big East."
Wait, let me try again.
"The ACC and Big East have. Nothing on the WAC."
Damn, it's not as simple as it looks. Let's try this instead:
"The WAC won the season series over the Big 12."
Ah, *much* easier...

Small consolation.

By Gosh, Sallie. You must be taken down with pollen sickness (or
perhaps I am.) You just said something I agree with completely. Wow.
The Stranger was his best, then Glass Houses... then I'm kinda
preferential to 52nd Street... great stuff. Not quite Jimmy Buffett
great, but great nonetheless...

Shoot, I don't even have allergies, but I still rank 'em (1) The Stranger;
(2) 52nd Street; (3) Glass Houses. We're moving dangerously close to a
consensus here.

Blecch. The day the manatee-faced boy does anything the caliber of "Scenes
from an Italian Restaurant" is the day I grow hair.
Well, that's actually kind of a visual, but you get the idea.

Nope, just have been a fan forever and ever, amen. In fact, when he came
to Clemson last year, I would have committed murder and/or mayhem to get
tickets. As it was, I stood in line for close to 3 hours on one of the
coldest and most blustery days in March to get them and would have paid
outrageous amounts of money to see him. He is THE MAN. I will have all
of his stuff on CD one day. I'm slowly but surely adding everything I have
on vinyl and tape into the CD collection. I want Streetlife Serenade next
I believe - only have that on tape. Damn, why didn't I bring in everything
today so I could have a BJ songfest to work by? Hindsight is 20/20.

Hey! Some respect for the man, here. (Billy Joel, not Satan's Onion.)
'Twas "Glass Houses" what delivered the fatal blow to the gasping, heaving
carcass of Disco. At least give the man credit for that.

There is another good one. I like a few tracks on 52nd street better than
others. Clearly he has classics on nearly every album, although he was
getting angry towards the industry on the last two.
