Message: [QUOTE="Bonpland, post: 2071105, member: 6000"] Maybe some feel that way, but I for one would rather that we still had the kind of local long term rivalries that we once looked forward to with both of those teams as well as with Villanova, Georgetown, Seton Hall et al. I don't miss the brand of football that was often played on the court by Rutgers and BC but there was a real difference between the rivals we faced from game to game then that was based on many year's worth of common experience. That may and probably will come with the teams in the AAC but at this point these League games are all pretty much alike. I think that most of us are intrigued to watch the games primarily to see how well the team's chemistry is developing. In the old Big East almost every game had the chance of finishing like last week's Tulane game, and that was really something. [/QUOTE]
