Conference Overview
Even though Cincinnati lost almost every starter on the defensive side of the ball, the Bearcats have the most explosive offense in the Big East, which gives them the edge. WVU, Rutgers and UCONN will all be implementing new QB’s, though Jarrett Brown of WVU isn’t really inexperienced. If he or the new gunslinger at Rutgers steps up, the Big East race will get very interesting come early December.
