During the Army- Rutgers game on ESPN they are disussing which conference is better. One guy is arguing that the MWC only has three legit teams in BYU, TCU and Utah, while the Big East has four in Pitt, West Virginia, Cincinnati and South Florida.
I think it is a stretch to include South Florida. Since 2004 the Big East is 3-2 in their BCS games, with one of those losses (and IMO the worst BCS team in that year) was Utah demolishing of Pitt.
The Big East has 0 appearances in the Championship game since Miami and Virgnia Tech left. Over that same span, the Pac 10 has had 2, the Big 10 2, the Big 12 3, and the SEC 3. For that matter, the ACC has also been shut out with 0 appearances.
I think the Big east is weaker than the ACC and if they deserve a auto bid so does the mwc.
