Well for the Big East teams outside of maybe Louisville, Cincy and South Florida everyone has been looking for any opportunity to get out of the conference. The basketball schools run things have held football back for years.

If things work out the way they appear to be headed I'll miss games with Pitt and Rutgers each year (the back and forth between WVU and Rutgers fans on game week each year makes the series a lot of fun), but getting out of the Big East more than makes up for it.
