I see it the opposite. I think that top to bottom, the Big East is better but the top four from the ACC are better than the top four from the Big East. I just don't understand some of the talk that I heard in the early season that the Big East this year might be the toughest conference in history. Hell, it's not even the best the Big East has seen. Remember back in the mid-80's when Georgetown, St. John's, and Syracuse were final four threats every year? I believe it was 1985 when the conference had three teams in the final four.
