Artermis took the words right out of my mouth about the Pac-10. Every once in a while they get a nice run of teams in basketball, but can someone team those sunsoaked knuckleheads to play any kind of defense in football? Pas-10 does win at swimming and discus throwing though, and they get credit there.

To me, the best conference must be perennial powerhouses in all three sports that make a buck: baseball, basketball, football.

Using those three criteria, The Dude, most unfortunately, is correct. And the capper is baseball. Noone else in the country can touch Big12 baseball.

Number two conference: Big Ten.

Jmf1234, I gotta see the Big East get stronger across the board. In other words, someone else needs to learn how to play football other than Miami and Pitt (and don't give me Syracuse, etc. They stink for three years than pull one out of nowhere). Someone else needs to learn to play Womens Basketball, etc.

The foundation IS there, but if I have to hear how great Miami of Florida is for beating the crap out of Rutgers one more time...

This is the arguement that never ends, cause there is no real answer. And the conferences have up and down years, cyclical.

Finally, the Big East and Big Ten, and basically all northern major conferences will never play the level of baseball played by Southern conferences. And Texas will never win the Frozen Four. So, its regional too.
