UCF beat Big 10 opponent Nebraska.
Playing it pretty fast and loose with "big day" aren't you? Previously, Oregon's best win was against mighty Ball State. Arizona has to win today to avoid an 0-3 showing in Atlantis, and don't forget the only reason SMU played Arizona in the loser's bracket was because SMU lost to MVC middler UNI the previous day. And when beating "Big 10 opponent" Nebraska is a "big day" for your conference, that's not a conference you want to be in.

Meanwhile, Big East is a very solid #3, easily ahead of #4 (ACC).

on Warren Nolan(which I think is the best one)- it's got Big Ten at #7.
Where it's going to hurt the Big East is the Big East has a lot of games vs Big Ten. Over 10% of the OOC games so far vs Big Ten.

Yep, that's why I'm rooting for them. Tough when teams like Wisconsin are doing so poorly. Gotta think they'll finish above #7. I can't see them being any lower than #6.
Also worth noting that we've only played some of the teams in the league, so teams like Nebraska and Wisconsin that we play against multiple times we need to root for during conference play as well.
