MWC > PAC10

This weekend was a huge weekend for the MWC. At least it should have been, but of course all the ESPN losers will completely overlook this interesting fact.

The MWC played 4 games against the Pac 10, and guess what, the MWC won all 4 games. And on the entire season, the MWC has played 5 games against the Pac 10 and won all 5 games.

Washington, Stanford, UCLA, Arizona State, and Arizona were the victims. They may not be the powerhouse of the Pac 10, but neither are UNLV and New Mexico.

Later in the season a MWC team will also play Oregon State. But regardless, by my count the MWC dominated play against the Pac 10.

The BCS is weak, and this proves it. So someone again try and tell me either how the WAC is better than the MWC, when our conference won more games against BCS opponents this weekend than the WAC did in all of last year, or that the MWC is an inferrior conference to the Pac 10.

If ESPN doesn't give us some serious love this week I am going to freaking unabomber the place. (You can take that threat straight to the top Patriot Act!)

I don't know what the MWC, and BYU in particular, ever did to them [ESPN], but it must have been traumatic and scarring. But come on . . . get some counseling, pull your heads out of your arses, and get on with your lives.

The only thing BYU did was hire Gary Crowton and have some really crappy years. That turned ESPN off from us, and then our lousy conference administrators decided they hadn't lined their pockets quite well enough and made this ridiculous conference TV deal. The big ten has their own conference, but what channel was the OSU game on? ABC!! its the MWC fault.

I'm sorry but I don't blame the conference for ESPN and other media sources for being biased.

Josh Hauser said...

I think it goes a long way to the fact now, but the bias exists for any non-bcs team. each one has been the darling at one point, and mostly it's because the analysts don't watch all the games...they get snippets cut and pasted into a highlight dvd. very rarely do they get to see any continuity. If I was an analyst and I had to choose between two games that I probably didn't watch I would hype the team who beat michigan in big house over a UNI, or a one-point victory over the worst the pac-10 can offer

whose talking about the media giving due hype to a non-BCS team. I'm talking about a conference, not a team. The media claims the BCS conferences are superior to the nonBCS conferences, but I think Saturday proved otherwise, and no one will ever talk about it.
