I am not sure if this has been talked about, but is there anything in the future being discussed to somehow get the Big East out of having an automatic tie in to a BCS game? I was just looking at ESPN's projected bowl match ups and they had 2 predictions for the Orange Bowl that included South Florida and Louisville.

I know the big east used to be somewhat legitimate with Miami, WV, etc but this is getting ridiculous. I am tired of watching teams like UCONN play at the highest level of college football.

There won't be any tie-ins in the new 4-team playoff. The top 4 teams will play for the title. The bowls will be free to tie in with any conference they want to or to bid on the playoff games. I can't see any of the top bowls electing to tie in with the Big East. They're making a big mistake with their expansion. They're hurting basketball and not improving in football.
