BC did win the Big East in 2004....had a 12-1 record against Rutgers in the Big East and never lost to UConn.

What a schmuck. (Does the program block that?) BC was a whopping 1-0 against UConn in the Big East. It was a home game. You could not possibly be more disigenous with your use of words.[/QUOTE]

I honestly think UConn is 0 and 2 against BC after joining the Big E as I went to both games. UConn got mauled at BC and then lost a painfully close game at the Rent that included Orlovsky throwing a ball at the feet of a UConn wide receiver who was tackled in the End Zone well before the ball was thrown but the ref declined to see that and several other offenses.

And that was before RU and Temple became decent and BC lost their way. BC is just now getting decent again though with few fans and being isolated and Cuse FB went into deep decline.

Miami, VT, WVU, and Cuse were beating them fairly regularly (losing records to all).

BC peaked in 2007 and 2008 with their best seasons in the last 15 and did make the ACC CCG only to lose.

They need another Matt Ryan at QB like in 2007....if they could throw the ball, they could contend. Not being able to throw, they ended up only crossing the 50 once against FSU and that was only to the 39.[/QUOTE]

So you're saying that teams are better when they have the no. 3 pick in the NFL draft? I had no idea.

That was 2003, we were still independent then (which is why we missed a bowl at 9-3).

Our three losses were at Virginia Tech (when Caulley shredded his knee), at home vs. BC (don't forget the home clock operator letting them get off a FG at the half, or the big TE from Westport rumbling down the sidelines), and on the last play of the game at NC State (when Orlovsky was no worse than a guy named Philip Rivers).

BC only came to the REnt once -- in '03 -- before UConn was in the Big East. We went to Chestnut Hill in '04 -- our first year in the Big East -- and then they were gone.
