If your looking >for someone to beat Georgetown, you wont have to look much farther. I hate to say I told you so, but I would call that a pretty good predication. With the Big East season half over, each team will still meet once more. It seems to be holding true that the top teams in the Big East are winning at home, losing on the road. I hope this will liven up the discussion on this net a bit. . . WHICH IS THE BEST B-BALL CONFERENCE ??? My bias is pretty clear, I say the Big East! Top Teams are: Georgetown 18-2 St. Johns 15-1 Syracuse 13-3 Villanova 13-4 All Top Twenty Teams! Remaining: Boston College Pittsburg Connecticut Providence Seaton Hall Lets hear what the ACC folks have to say. . .

> > WHICH IS THE BEST B-BALL CONFERENCE ??? > > My bias is pretty clear, I say the Big East! Top Teams are: I'd say it's a toss-up between Big East and ACC this year. I couldn't really differentiate between the Top Teams and the rest because everybody has a good team in the ACC! -- Jeff Offutt School of ICS, Georgia Tech, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 ...!{akgua,allegra,amd,hplabs,ihnp4,seismo,ut-ngp}!gatech!gitpyr!ofut

Ready? BULLSH*T! Lets look at the conferences top to bottom: ACC Big East NCAA Teams: Duke Georgetown Georgia Tech Syracuse Maryland St. Johns NC State Villanova Wake Forest North Carolina NIT Teams: Virginia Boston College Clemson Pittsburgh, maybe Teams that don't go anywhere: none Connecticut Providence Seton Hall The clear winner: ACC. Seriously, could Seton Hall challenge the top four in the Big East? Top to bottom, the ACC has the best teams. There is no question about it. There is not a push over. (Georgia Tech used to be, but that was 4 years ago.) The top teams in the ACC play a much harder out of conference schedule than the top Big East teams, as well, which is why they are not as highly ranked. By the way, who was the Big East football champion last year :-)? (So much for one sport conferences!)

>>Oh, I think the Pac-10 is clearly the top conference this year.
I like the BIG 10. -- once they stop beating up on each other.
You watch what happens in the NCAA this year.
go ILLINOIS! (all eight players, ouch.)
