Did you research that BC comment or was it just a throw away line that popped into your head? When did the ACC get watered down? If anything BC, Miami & VaTech beefed it up. And from whom are you expecting BC's non "watered down" ACC competition to come from? Notre Dame?

Incidentally, Division I-A is now known as the Football Bowl Subdivision, not the Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA) as you indicate above.

as usual, Jack is attempting to use attitude to replace research and knowledge. MANY writers have been talking about how the spread offense with speed is the great equalizer in college football. Appalachian state was the natural progression from Utah/Hawaii in the mid-majors, Texas Tech from the Big12 and coutless other spread teams that have pulled "upsets" in the past decade. Will "This year in college football may be unlike any other"? The Cardinal will end up in the bottom of the Pac10 again, so as far as the farm is concerned, this year will be the same.

I suggest you do some research too. USF has the best defense in the country.

I am aware of USF's defense, but a ranking is more than one stat.
I remember when I was a little kid and the BC gang was fired up to have beaten a Stanford team starring a guy named Elway. There's no reason for the Cardinal to be at the bottom of the pack. Though I do think that even if Indians are to un-PC they need a better mascot than a weird reference to the color Catholic prelates wear.
