I'm reminded of Geno's comment...

[Phil]

that it is harder to win the BE than to win a National Championship.

This year, how true.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Exactly.

Next year, not so much.

 

[Biff]

Exactly.

Next year, not so much.

Next year it will be so hard that it will be impossible for UConn to win the Big East.

 

[UcMiami]

It also points to what Louisville has faced in both championship games. The reason the BE is harder is that every team knows every other team very well. Unfortunately for ND and Louisville this year the same thing was true in the FF. (And for Uconn the previous two years!)
