    Nova or UConn

    We are tied in conference record almost half way through conference play. Both have probably 2-3 more losses than expected. Who has the better outlook for the rest of conference play and post season?

    Congrats to Providence

    Winning the regular season is meaningful, even under these circumstances.

    Nova is UConn’s biggest rival

    Right? Georgetown and Cuse will always have each other first, and they have both been down too long. Nova and UConn have a balanced history, titles, and are both competitive today. Everyone agree?

    BIG merger with Big East

    The Basketball forum is dabbling in CR, so reposting here. The combined conferences have non-football members like the oBE. UConn becomes a football member and Kansas is brought in as a football member. ND is committed to join the ACC if it joins any conference as a full member, but instead...

    The Texas and Oklahoma move

    The possible catalyst for the next major CR might be in the hands of the Longhorns and Sooners. It's widely publicized that they have been targeted in the past by the PAC and the next B12 and PAC12 TV deals will be evolving. Some speculation is that the B12 now has the upper hand in any...

    AAC vs Big East records

    We have had some debate on here about the historical records of the Big East. The Big East is celebrating the 40th anniversary this year. Markus Howard is noted for passing Moten this year for a Big East record of in-conference points. The Big East obviously recognizes the continuity of its...

    Big East back to nation’s best conference? Just might be

    AP Big East back to nation’s best conference? Just might be Villanova (No. 10) and Butler (No. 11) are the only Big East teams in the Top 25, but seven more schools from the conference received votes for the poll. Providence was the only Big East school that got shut out

    12 Reasons why The Big East is UConn's home

    1. Basketball is UConn's identity with a rebuilding Blue Blood Men's program and a Dynasty Women's program. The Big East is a better basketball conference than the American. 2. Football in the American was a bust. The shotgun footprint without real rivalries was a recruiting disadvantage. 3...

    East Coast Football Alliance

    This is an alliance of convenience for scheduling and TV negotiations. It wouldn't have been possible a few years ago as FCS to FBS moves had to be via a conference invite. Liberty changed that with their challenge to move directly to Independent. This is 5 games in an Alliance schedule. The...

    Welcome back to the Big East

    I’d like to be the first to welcome y’all back home to the Big East. While many are excited to be back, I know this is a tough pill to swallow for those that were worked up and denied that this was ever possible, ever under consideration, etc. We welcome y’all back too. CR isn’t easy...

    Is the AAC even P6?

    As UConn considers its future conference affiliations its position in football is much different than its position in basketball. Football peaked at the right time for UConn. UConn had its best foot forward for CR when it unfolded, it just didn’t work out. As we look forward it might be...

    XL Center

    I've followed the XL Center discussions a bit (and UConn in general). I've read that it needs $250M in renovations and I've read of the general negative feelings to the surrounding Hartford area. It's been many years since I visited the XL. I think it is still a great arena and I just can't...

    A Nova proposal for UConn to the Big East

    UConn to the Big East? Here is an outsider's perspective as I am a Nova fan. This is stating the obvious, but it seems UConn's best landing spot would be P5 in the ACC or the B1G, with the Big12 being a distant last P5 resort but a better spot and payday than the AAC. The risk with the...
