Welcome to the Friday Feedback which is tied for second in the Big East now. Last night was a good night for everyone in the Big East exept Pitt and the actual Big East. UConn’s victory — or is it Pitt’s loss? — brought the conference race back into play.
The Panthers have one loss in Big East play and everyone else has at least two and now USF, WVU and Cincinnati can suddenly take control. Each has a game left against the Panthers, thus can deal them their second loss and win the head-to-head tie-breaker should Pitt and one of those three end up as the only, say, 5-2 teams in Big East play. The tie-breakers when three or more teams are involved get more complicated — there are mini-leagues and BCS rankings to consider — but the point is this is all very fluid right now.
And Sunday morning, either WVU or Cincinnati will wake up with a chance to win this thing. Big weekend at WVU with volleyball, women’s soccer in the NCAA Tournament, women’s basketball and men’s basketball as well as that suddenly significant football game that may or may not feature a little more of the option.
Onto the Feedback. As always, comment appear as posted. In other words, get some rest.

This from ESPN, “The previous Michigan record for total points wasn’t nearly as dramatic, beating West Virginia 130-0 in 1904″.
Apparently, Michigan has been abusing WVU for over 100 years, who new?

It makes you wonder what P-Rod considers a bad week, or even a mediocre week.
Give it time.
